I thought I was purchasing a yoga course and in fact it was nothing but the woman idolizing herself. not at all what i was looking for. a real waste of money.

I wish someone had told me what I wrote below before I bought this DVD. I am going to return it and post my review below on amazon.com so others can see what goes in this DVD. I cannot do it with a clear conscience. and no matter how hard I try, I cannot erase the images of worship dancers and the huge budda images in my head when I watch this DVD.
After reading the rave reviews on amazon.com, I decided to buy this DVD, Shiva Rea Shakti yoga DVD. It is a HUGE mistake.. Today I saw the negative reviews that I didn’t see three weeks ago and I wish they were available then. I will return this DVD and buy Bryan Kest instead. I hope my review will help you make informed decisions if you are considering buying this DVD.
Things I do not like about this DVD:
1. I do not like the Hindu religion integrated throughout the DVD. There are worship dancers, drums, gongs, chanting music as well as images. When Shiva Rea does the dance like yoga flow, there is this group of worship dancers on the screen. During each transitional period for titles of sessions to show on the screen, there are Hindu dancers, images, which are highly distractive. When she does the shoulder stand flow, she is in the building with a huge budda head statue on the wall with it being focused and shown on the screen for unnecessary time. For anyone who doesn’t want to have anything with the religious part, I recommend that you not buy this DVD.
2. Some people comment that it is too-fast paced to follow. After viewing it, I find that it is so true and it is because Shiva Rea is dancing the trance dance along with the worshipers.
3. You spend too much time trying to watch the video while your head should be facing down or up in the poses. There is not enough instruction at all for me to be able to follow it without having to strain my neck to watch her. You should be able to do it with just the verbal clues.
I love doing yoga poses to relieve pain and stress and become flexible. I do not want to have anything to do with the religious part. I would like something that I will be able to do without having to watch the screen all the time after following it a couple time. I regret the money I wasted on this one.

It says in the info that the DVD caters to all skill levels. NOT TRUE! This is not a DVD for yoga beginners, this is one for someone who has been doing yoga for years and knows the poses. I’m a beginner and I couldn’t do even a 1/4 of what is on the DVD. Shiva Rhea can do the poses, yay or her. Not yay for a beginner. She doesn’t describe the poses, only says “place your feet here and hands here”. And the way she was acting while doing this reminds me of someone who is stoned out of their mind.
This DVD is NOT for beginners, no matter what the DVD Info section says.
