Rodney Yee leads Abs Yoga for Beginners from the serene Death Valley. The gentle sands of the desert lend to the calming mood of Yee's supple movements, which are designed to firm and strengthen your abs while providing a soothing respite from your hectic lifestyle. Beginning with 4 minutes of conscious breathing, moving into 13 minutes of abs yoga workout, and ending with 3 minutes of deep relaxation, the tape is an introduction to yoga for those who would like the added benefit of targeting their abdominal regions. The poses are, for the most part, simple to follow, although the beginner may need to ease into some of the positions; lowering straight legs to the ground is challenging, but of course, as in all of Living Arts yoga tapes, you are encouraged to move at your own speed. A blanket to sit on is required. --Jenny Brown

Great Beginner Yoga Video October 2, 2008
A great yoga video for beginners although the edition that I received has an extra 10 minutes of breathing exercises added to the beginning that the original version did not have. The original got right into the physical workout after about three minutes of breathing and centering. Some beginners may find the longer period of breathing a bit tedious and want to skip over some of it.
Good workout in my opinion March 24, 2007
I like the Rodney Yee workout tapes. This one focuses on the abdominals. I find that the hardest part for me is laying down while lowering and raising straight legs. This is done several times during this video. I find his tapes flow well and very user friendly. This is designed for beginners.
Funny yet good November 1, 2006

Ok so we did this workout video in PE one day, and I thought it was SUPER strange. First of all the guy is half naked in the middle of the desert, and then you got these wierd movements that he does, and then this wierd sounding narrator that says 'exhale' like he's retarded.
But here's how the video goes:
In the VERY beginning of the video you just kinda lay there watching 500 precautions go across the screen. Then after listening to people say all these wierd yoga words for 10 minutes, the workout begins.
In the beginning you just kinda sit there and the half-naked yoga guy says all this wierd stuff that relaxes you.
Then you move onto the actual workout portion, which isnt long, like 10-15 minutes. The workout part was actually pretty good for toning my abs.
After that you lay on the ground for 3 minutes positioned as if you fell off a building.
Overall I would suggest buying this video, because its short, and perfect for a busy schedule.
 Good AB Workout February 27, 2006

When I first did this video I thought this isn't doing anything. I don't feel like I'm working out at all...then the next day my ABs were sore (in a good way)! I was surprised such a low impact workout could work so well.
Excellent ab routine January 14, 2004

Excellent workout but too hard for many beginners. When I fist started yoga I found some of the poses too taxing for my back (so I skipped or modified them). Now that I have gotten stronger I really like this workout. It starts easy and gets more difficult. If you do what you can you will make progress and be able to do more. Definitely heed the warnings of other reviewers: if you have lower back problems be very careful and modify some of the poses. If you are a beginner and have not done other ab exercises before you might find this video very challenging. If you have some ab strength already this will take it to the next level.
