Yoga has an amazing way of stretching and strengthening the body while calming the mind and restoring energy. Filmed in a serene garden overlooking the Pacific Ocean, these two sessions offer a comprehensive introduction to yoga so that you can begin at any level and continually progress. The Fundamentals program will take you step-by-step through the basics of yoga breathing, foundation postures and short vinyasa flows. The Intermediate sequence will introduce the next stage of postures and flow through a series of full sun salutations. Both of these programs will build strength and tone muscle while they improve balance, increase flexibility, release tension and allow you to start realizing the positive impact that yoga can have on your life.

Product Description:
A basic intro-to-yoga series and a slightly more challenging follow-up program. Both workouts are set in a tranquil garden overlooking the Pacific Ocean. The first program features step-by-step instruction with an emphasis on proper breathing and correct technique. Tamal Dodge's cuing is easy to follow and very precise (e.g. "left bicep in line with left ear"). He demonstrates a flowing series of yoga classics using standard English, and then yoga terminology (so you'll become familiar with both cuing styles). The second workout increases the intensity with new poses and more strength-focused positions. The moves range from sun salutations and warrior poses to core toning and balance sequences.
