Very good :->

"I'm really getting the hang of Yoga now; I never really liked it before until recently and this is another great workout to add to my fast growing collection of Yoga workouts. I like Crunch and guessed that this might be another good dvd and luckily I was right.
It is more geared for the beginner to intermediate, so I found it non-intimidating and not so hard to do. Bethany is a good instructor and she's friendly and encouraging. She lets you know that it's OK if you don't quite get the moves down perfectly - there are options if need be. I find that very appealing because I sometimes feel like I HAVE to get it right and her saying that, makes me relax more. It's a workout more geared towards core and lower-body, and you get a fantastic stretch at the end.
If you normally would pass on Yoga, do give this a try. I always found it 'difficult' and while it isn't always easy, this is a great way to begin and before you know it, you'll find the moves easier and easier and then you'll be ready to try more difficult routines. This is definately a good place to start and I highly recommend it."
Great Yoga workout - Felt the Burn!

"I thought it was a great Crunch DVD. Bethany Lyons is such an easy instructor to listen to and take "cues" from, as she is not intimindating. I like that you can do this workout and feel immediately refreshed upon finishing, and you can really feel it in your buns and thighs the next day!
**Great poses**
Finishing with hip openers is great, as pigeon is one of my favorites
Great cool-down (shavasayna) and meditation at the end
lots of downward dog with an emphasis on form
Thanks Crunch Fitness for more "flowing" yoga workout. Hope to see more to come...."
Love!!

"I absolutely LOVE this DVD!! I do yoga 2-3 times a week along with cardio and strength training 3-4 times a week. this is just what my body needs to stretch and recover. the cues are easy to follow and Bethany is very pleasant and soothing."
Fantastic Low Body Routine

"Whenever I want an intensive lower body (yoga or otherwise) workout, I put in this video. Yes, you will also work your core and upper body but the focus of this video are the legs and buns. This is NOT for beginners and expect to have to watch it a few times before mastering the postures. This workout will make you sweat and will tone and stretch your body. It is not divided into chapters like all of the other Crunch videos that I own, so you will have to watch or fast forward through the into."
