(1994) This tape is a very good introduction to yoga, especially for experienced exercisers with pretty good flexibility. It takes a more athletic approach rather than the spiritual mind/body angle. The tape does offer many variations for beginners and those who are less flexible. The set and music are very calming, and the camera switches frequently among the exercisers to show the different variations of the same pose.

Kathy teaches for most of the video, though a few of the sections are led by Rod Stryker.

I have no concrete complaints about this video, but I bought this video for relaxation and to improve my flexibility, and for some inexplicable reason I tend to get impatient with the beginning breathing and "loosening up" sections. They seem to go on too long. I guess I don't think that a yoga tape should make href="yoga.htm#ymb">"Yoga Mind & Body" tape. Ali's tape is thoroughly relaxing for body and spirit, though it offers fewer form pointers and variations for the less flexible exerciser.
