Yoga with Ateeka is filmed in Hawaii where she teaches Hatha Yoga. Ateeka starts you out with a shorth breathing exercise which slowly warms up the body. You then move to Sun Salutations (A&B), Ateeka starts you out at 2 sets for each sun salutes, and ask you to gradually work up to 5 sun salutes of A and B. You then progress to standing and balancing poses. Warrior I, II and head under your leg pose, King Dancer, Prayer behind the Back, then vinyasa to floor poses. A little bit of ab work here then Bridge to Wheel pose, to plow to shoulder stand. From those poses to seated forward bends and yoga mudra. The entire video is about 60 minutes long and flows well from asana to asana. She is constantly guiding you and reminding you how to best attain the pose. This video is very invigorating. Although no triangle or side-bend poses this video is a great work-out, especially when you start off with 10 sun salutes. I thorougly enjoy her and the program she has put together for her first video. Hope to have more from Ateeka.

Instructor Comments:
Ateeka is a wonderful teacher. She goes through each pose in an exact manner and guides you through. She has a soothing voice and flows from pose to pose.
