Not for beginners
I have been practicing yoga for about 10 years and found some of the positions in this a little difficult. It is definantly great for an experienced yoga practicer but I would not suggest it for a beginner. I am really happy with it and it will definantly keep a lot of the unwanted extra pregnancy pounds off.

Pleased with purchase
At first I thought this video might be "too slow" (I am used to a regular and more vigorous Ashtanga practice) but I've come to really enjoy and look forward to the slower pace and very focused strength building postures. As I go through pregnancy, I am coming to find - everyday is not the same. I choose this on a day when I want to move mindfully and more gently. This is a good video to have in a collection and I use it frequently. Shiva does a good job explaining postures in detail and offering modifications depending where you are in your pregnancy.

rewarding video
I ordered this video in my 6th month to help with back and hip pain I was developing as a result of the pregnancy. I have honestly only used the video a few times due to my own lack of motivation but every time I do I feel great. I love how there are actually pregnant women in the video to follow depending on your stage of pregnancy. The moves are slow and comfortable and there is no need for fancy equipment. I just wish I had the motivation and drive to do this more often because the reward is great. I feel relaxed and energized at the end but most importantly, I feel comfortable which means alot!

the best prenatal yoga DVD
Amazing, inspiring, refreshing class!!! Being pregnant is a sacred experience, doing yoga connect our physical body with our spiritual one, at the same time it help us to give the best quality oxygen to our baby and hug him with our soul! great gift!!!!

nice gentle prenatal yoga exercises
I was looking for a prenatal yoga routine that would not be too exhausting, yet give my body the stretch and tone it needs. This DVD is just that. It is nice to have the three ladies on the DVD displaying modifications for each trimester. You need a blanket, chair, block, and strap for different exercises and modifications. There is no need to buy special items, you can just use things from around the house to make it work! I like how Shiva stresses to not overdo any poses, only what is comfortable for you. The first few times I watched/did the tape, I payed quite a bit of attention to the poses. I would suggest after that to try not to watch the tape so closely and focus on your breathing, which has seemed to help me transition from pose to pose more smoothly. I have minimal experience with yoga, am 28, first time mom,and an average weight/muscle tone...if that helps get a better idea of where I am coming from. Also, I can't forget to mention the guided relaxation at the end...is AMAZING! I wish it was a little bit longer, but it is a nice treat. I highly recommend this DVD!

Prenatal Yoga with love
I think this is an excellent Prenatal yoga dvd. I love how there are 3 women in the dvd that portray all the different trimesters. This is very beneficial for the pregnant woman that is home doing yoga alone. Plus, the dvd is also broken down in segments so that the student can do the practice for only 15 minutes if she chooses to do so. I also highly recommed Wai Lana yoga for prenatal yoga. Either way, Shiva Rea give her heart to this practice and I'm sure that is comforting to anyone who's pregant and practicing yoga. TAMARA'S YOGA FUSION

Great Excercises for Strengthening and Stretching
As someone who entered my pregnancy at a time when I was getting little or no exercise, this was a perfect way to ease myself back into activity without overdoing it. I find this video very helpful for stretching in the morning and strengthening my back and core muscles. I have noticed an improvement in my posture and a lessening of aches and pains throughout the day. I would recommend this video to any woman who is looking for a peaceful way to connect with their baby and also improve their health.

Too Hard and Annoying
I've been doing Yoga and Pilates for years (well before I was pregnant) but I found this workout kept changing from sitting to standing to laying to using a chair and that wore me out before the workout really got going. I've used other work outs where you spend time on the floor doing the appropiate exercises, then a chair or blocks, then standing, etc. But not consently switching back and forth. I also have a Pilates video by someone else and it is much more taylored to pregnant woman. I thought that this one expected too much and easily wore me out. I thought the way the instructor talked was very annoying. It did not make me relax but irratated me.
