Beautiful Restorative (Yin) and Energizing (Yang) Yoga
YogaKat | Oregon United States | 06/21/2008

"Yin is a series of deeply restorative asanas inspired by Taoist Yoga and are held for several minutes each. Simon Low leads a wonderful beach-side 1 hour session. The Yang practice is 30 min and can be looped for a longer session. It includes a lovely warm up and then flowing sequence which is a beautiful alternative to repetitive sun salutations.
This is a great addition to my yoga practices. Please see my other reviews on Amazon or check out worldturning dot com for additional information on yoga and meditation videos. Namaste'"
Wonderful way to unwind!

"This DVD is a great way to unwind and release stress after a long day! I love to do this yin yoga sequence on those days when I am just too tired to even think about doing vinyasa or power yoga. His voice is very soothing, and his sequencing of poses manages to release every ache or kink in your body. My husband has noted a marked decrease in his lower back pain! This DVD is worth buying a bolster for (if you don't already have one) even if you are already fairly flexible! This one and Paul Grilley's are my favorites! Awesome!!"

"The practice in this DVD is incredibly grounding and soothing. Especially the Yin. It was almost like I was on the beach doing the practice with Simon and his two companions. He has an incredible ability with language, I find. He conveys the essence of each pose almost effortlessly. I felt transported to another place during the practice. I find him a very inspirational teacher and very much like this yang style of yoga with the qigong influence. It's quite unusual and I have not encountered many teachers who incorporate these other traditions into a yoga practice. There is a great emphasis on fluidity of movement and finding space in the joints and body, whether it's in the yin or the yang practice. I like the fact that you can make it a shorter or longer practice too. Thoroughly recommended for anyone who wants to take a trip off the beaten ashtanga track. Two thumbs up!"
Yin & Yang Yoga With Simon Low

"Simon Low's Yin & Yang Yoga DVD is a pleasure to practice to. Easily understood with precise and clear instructions. Lots of alternative or easier versions postures for the less experienced Yogini. Simon's beautiful voice and lovely Sufi poetry combined with relaxing restorative postures make this DVD a joyful and uplifting experience."
