I have been blown away by this Yoga for Athletes DVD I bought by a Hawaiian instructor, Rodney Yee. I really wanted to get heavily into flexibility to avoid injury and came across this by chance. (I don’t have any commercial interest in this, it’s just great)
Rodney has tailored his sessions to specific sports which I find brilliant. There are running, cycling and swimming sessions among others and he explains everything really well, incorporating relaxation into it too which is great after a busy day at work.
He always begins his session with ‘Opening’, a 13 minute stretching segment using a chair. It is very professionally done with the option of selecting the camera angle to focus in on one of the two background exercisers who offer variations on Rodney’s more advanced positions. Even if you aren’t an athlete – I believe this will do amazing things for your general health and well-being. I only wish I had come across it sooner!
It is my second DVD now that I have been doing regularly. I was given an Intermediate ‘Pilates TV‘ DVD, they do a show on Australian TV. I can also recommend their shows for core strength.
