I'd classify this as a beginner workout. It's very doable and not intimidating. Ms. Carlson demonstrates the "advanced" version of the workout. A modifier participates as well. The modifier uses a chair for most of the exercises. Here's a list of the 25 poses demonstrated in the DVD.

1. Mountain Pose, 2. Side Bend, 3. Shoulder Rolls, 4. Reach to the Stars,
5. Chair Pose, 6. Sun Salutation, 7. Table Pose, 8. Plank Pose, 9. Child's Pose,
10. Downward Facing Dog, 11. Pre-Headstand, 5-second, 12. Moving Cat,
13. Lunge, 14. Warrior 1, 15. Pyramid Pose, 16, Elbow Side Plank,
17. Plank Hover Position, 18. Tree Pose, 19. Warrior II, 20. Triangle Pose
21. Side Angle Pose, 22. Arm Stretches, 23. Boat Pose, 24. Archer Pose,
25. Bound Angle Pose.

I got my DVD from Ross today. It cost $9. I consider this a keeper. It's a decent workout for someone who wants to practice yoga on a limited scale.
