"I'm addicted!!! I do one of the tapes in the collection every day. I had never tried yoga before getting these tapes. They are awesome tapes. Alan Finger's voice and accent are calming. Alan gives instruction, while other's perform the poses (asanas). It's helpful because one of the models does modified poses for those who are less flexible. Since I've gotten these tapes, I've borrowed others (done by other people) from friends and I must say my Yoga Zone tapes are still my favorite. The models seem so serene, no pasted on smiles. I can't say enough, I feel wonderful doing these tapes. My muscles get a workout, and my mind relaxes."

"I first began Yoga in the latter 70's, but stopped when the aerobics craze hit full swing. I had also purchased Alan Finger's book "Yoga Moves" in the 80's, which is also available on video and is taken directly from the book, which came out in 1984, but is a little outdated now. However, the "Yoga Zone" tapes are his newest works and with them you CANNOT go wrong! My spine is out of alignment, which has caused some back and shoulder problems and pinched nerves. My chiropracter advised me to take Yoga up again. He couldn't emphasize enough how good it is for you, so after researching tapes and reviews for some time, I decided on this set.Alan gives VERY clear and detailed instructions throughout, so your are only limited by your own level of skill and capabilities, but that will change with practice. The workouts are nearly an hour each, but it doesn't seem long. Yoga is supposed to be as much introspective as it is physical, and the slow precision that Alan undertakes is the perfect accompaniment to tune into yourself as you perform the "Yoga Moves".Don't let the term "Beginner" fool you. I tried the Yoga for Dummies, which is very well done, but is for EXTREME beginners. This is more advanced than that, but not extremely so, so your goals should be easy to achieve with time and practice. Alan is a Yogi-raj and has practiced Yoga for 40 years now, so he knows what he doing and so will you if you follow these videos!!!"
The best workout video I've ever tried!

"After receiving my Yoga Zone tapes, I did the workout twice the day I got them. I had never tried Yoga before using these tapes and had no idea that you could get such a total workout not only for your body, but your mind as well. I am a firm believer in the power of yoga now! Alan Finger, the instructor, does a wonderful job of helping out the viewer at home feel at ease with his calming and assuring voice. 'Even if you can't make it to the ankles, the knees are just fine!' I highly recommend this set to anyone who is curious about yoga!"
Fantastic Yoga tapes!!

"I'm a beginner at yoga, but I have to say that I was pleasantly surprised by this beginner box set. Alan Finger has a wonderful and thorough way of explaining the positions. You don't feel bored or watch the clock. His descriptions are clear and precise. He has a real calming effect on your nervous system. I highly recommend it to any beginner..."
