Plus Size Yoga

If you struggle to maintain your weight, you may have noticed that most of the people in traditional yoga DVDs seem to be blessed with slender physiques. Additionally, many of the yoga positions in these workouts can be difficult for someone who is larger and less flexible than most.

Fortunately, there’s no need for the plus-sized woman to forgo the benefits of a regular yoga practice. In Yoga: Just My Size, Megan Garcia provides plus-sized women with a gentle yet highly effective introduction to yoga. In this 28-minute workout, she guides viewers through a series of modified yoga poses designed to increase energy levels and enhance flexibility. Yoga: Just My Size also includes a special section that explains how to use a wall, chair, or special yoga props to ease into the more difficult positions.

Yoga for Seniors

Unlike other types of physical activities, yoga is great for people of all ages. Yoga exercises can be performed by children, teenagers, and adults. However, as the body ages, it may become more difficult to complete the workouts shown on most yoga DVDs.

Lilias!: AM & PM Yoga Workouts for Seniors is a unique yoga workout designed to meet the needs of mature adults. The instructor guides viewers through two complete practices that include poses designed to strengthen back muscles, maintain healthy knees, improve circulation, and increase your range of motion. It’s an easy-to-follow introduction to yoga that’s perfect for anyone looking to keep up with the trends of the younger generation.

Fertility Yoga

If you’re in the process of trying to become pregnant, you’re probably well aware of the stress created by fertility troubles. Many experts recommend that women attempting to conceive make time to relax by starting a regular yoga practice.

Yoga 4 Fertility guides viewers through a series of asanas thought to enhance the function of the reproductive organs, as well as some basic standing poses, forward bends, and simple twists. Instructor Brenda Strong also offers a detailed section on meditation and relaxation.

Quick and Easy Yoga

Many people who want to learn more about yoga are convinced that it will be too time-consuming. They wonder how to fit a yoga practice into a hectic day filled with work and family obligations.

If you don’t think you have time to exercise, 10 Minute Solution Yoga is the answer to your prayers. This innovative yoga DVD offers viewers a series of 10-minute mini-workouts designed to tone the body, promote relaxation, and enhance flexibility.
