First off, I do not have the patience to do Yoga at home (I enjoy taking Yoga classes.) I can usually do it as an add on for up to 20 minutes. That being said, I enjoyed this workout, even though it runs 35 minutes. The last 5 minutes are strictly stretching, which were held long enough to be relaxing. The Yoga workout consists of 2 or 3 "routines" which were repeated and then done on the other side. There are no props used, but you can modify with blocks on some moves. There are no yoga names given for the moves - but Kirsten gives descriptions, as in a weight workout. She does warrior poses, cobra, down dog, planks (side and front), triangle, pigeon and a few others. The flow is very good -- starting with standing moves and ending on the floor. The time went quickly and the instruction was good.

Instructor Comments:
Kirsten has a pleasant voice and cues well. She says the same exact lines for repeating the moves on the other side (must be scripted!)
