There are so many yoga DVD's out there I was totally confused which one to buy. I chose Jane's simply by luck. This DVD is wonderful! Jane is easy to follow, as I am a beginner, and the scenery is calming and beautiful. I bought this for me hoping that I could get my husband involved as he suffers from stiff muscles and knee pain. It has worked wonders for him and he is addicted to this DVD and now does yoga every day. We recently went to Wyoming to visit friends and he brought both DVD's with him. Now our friends want to order them! I gave them to my piano teacher as a gift and he loves them. He said he never realized he had such poor balance. He was very grateful and said he saw a difference after a week. I also purchased the balance and strength DVD but have not started it yet because we still love doing the first one. I have no doubt we will love that one too.

I'm a 64-year old male who is reasonably physically fit and active (run, lift weights, & do floor exercises). A couple of months ago on the advice of one of my adult sons, I began trying Yoga via one of Jane's other DVDs (Gentle Yoga: 7 Beginning Practices). I really enjoyed it and noticed an almost immediate improvement in my flexibility and posture. Since I now typically include 1-2 of her programs in my exercise routine multiple days each week, I decided to add a little variety to the Yoga portion of my work out by purchasing a second one of Jane's DVDs. I actually like this new DVD a little more than the first one (which is also great). It is longer (2 Disks) and has a few more programs. In my case, many of the poses and exercises on Disk 1 were initially very difficult (if not impossible) for my body but it now seems like every time I go through a program, I can do more and more of the exercises. A couple of the programs on Disk 2 are more of a challenge (really, really difficult for my body) but it gives me something to work towards.
Highly recommend.

I have been using Jane Adams' yoga DVDs off and on since 2014. In December 2019 I fell off a ladder and broke my right tibia and fibula, which damaged my calf muscle. I had expected the recovery to go faster than it has because I fractured both femurs and pelvis in a car crash when I was 19 years old, and that recovery was easy-peasy. Unfortunately, the recovery process for someone in their 50s is quite a difference from someone in their teens.

I started using Jane's DVDs again every day a few months ago, and wow, what an improvement! Not only have the pains in my leg, ankle, and knee virtually disappeared, but my neck and shoulders are returning to a more healthy posture, something my physical therapist did not think was possible.

Just as importantly, I am happier and calmer. I highly recommend any of Jane's DVDs. (Yes, I have them all.) I am so glad I started using her DVDs again. I intend to keep using them, even after I am fully recovered.

I am so glad I discovered this DVR by Jane Adams! I am an active senior at 68. I ride horses, walk my dog 2 miles a day and ride a Peloton bike. But if I skip my morning yoga routine with Jane, my muscles get tight leading to pain. I had a sore hip at one point, before Jane, and had to go to an orthopedic surgeon who told me I would need a hip replacement. I went to physical therapy for weeks and felt better. Then I discovered Yoga for Beginners and find that if I do a different routine each day, I am pain free! No surgery has been needed and it has been two years! Jane is wonderful to work with and I am never bored. Her voice is soothing and the time passes quickly. I keep a journal so that I get in all the major practices each week. There is a variety targeting the core, hips, forward bends, upper body, balance and relaxation. The practices are done either standing or on the floor. After my yoga practice, I feel relaxed and flexible. Then I can go about my daily activities with ease. I hope this continues to work for me as I get older. I highly recommend Jane Adams and I have ordered Yoga for Beginners for my 27 year old daughter who has a stressful job and works out in a gym. I think it will help her to start her day as it has helped me.

This is the 2d Jane Adams Yoga dvd that I have purchased. I LOVE them and hope she continues to make more of them ! It would be great to have a few hour long sessions, but I do appreciate that I can mix and match the shorter sessions to fill in whatever time I have available. I LOVE these videos because
1. The scenery is gorgeous - I can even live near Jane (no I don't know her and have never met her!), but having the video set in the beautiful Flathead, makes me feel like I am doing yoga outside in the spring, rather than in a studio or in my basement with several feet of snow outside.
2. Jane is SOOOO easy to listen to. She is a good speaker (no ums and ahhs and extra words), her voice is soothing and she is slow and gentle - just what I need.
3. The price is right !
4. This particular DVD is even better than the first one, because there are more choices of sessions to mix and match.

Thank you Jane !
