Dont get me wrong, Ive always been a fan of Barbara Curries yoga workouts. She has a no-nonsense approach free from jargon & a soothing & encouraging voice. In previous videos, Barbara has been accompanied by two others showing different levels of difficulty whereas in this one, she is alone. She has the air of a woman far too busy to go to a TV studio...its filmed at the Hurlingham Club where she works & looks like it was filmed in a gap between classes! I did not feel particularly relaxed. The routines arent really done in a way that you can follow, she simply shows you once, & then tells you to repeat it making her seem bored of the whole thing & it feels very disjointed.

There are many good exercises included, but the way it is taught is probably better suited to a book than a DVD. The facial exercises are quite good, but this really is exercise for people with no time or inclination. Its not what I would call a proper yoga workout as each exercise is done individually & it doesnt flow as a routine. Poor. Get 7 Secrets of Yoga instead.
