I just received this yoga tape (thanks Rosie) and I have to say that I thought Bryan Kest's tapes were tough. This tape is almost as challenging as The Power Within by Mark Blanchard and this is only his level 2 tape, I'd hate to see level 3. What I like the most about this tape is that you do almost 55 minutes of standing poses so it is a very thorough yoga routine. You do a good warm up before going through the routine and it includes all your basic yoga poses plus Baron includes balancing poses and some you do twice. I think it's a much more thorough routine than any of Bryan's tapes, I'm not putting Bryan down by any means, but this is one tough yoga workout and a true meaning of Power Yoga. The total length of the video is 70 minutes with about 15 minutes being floor poses. You do back stretches, hip stretches, inner thigh stretches and different variations of each that you don't find in other tapes. I happen to love doing Power Yoga and I'm thrilled that I am finally finding tapes that go beyond Bryan's vol. 3 workout. Between The Power Within and now Baron's tape, I know I will be able to continue to grow in the poses. I still love doing short yoga routines after my cardio or strength workouts but for days when I only do yoga, these 2 tapes are the best! Now I can't wait to try Baron's vol. 3.

Instructor Comments:
Baron is a very likable instructor, very motivating with an upbeat personality. I like his teaching style and the workout is great!
