I did not really enjoy this workout, despite the lovely soothing background and fine production quality.

The set is beautiful. There is a live drummer.

It's an endurance workout,and I did feel worn out out at the end, which is a good thing. But I didn't feel "uplifted", which is kind of what I was looking for.

I'm not religious. I'm an agnostic. But the spiritual yoga speak appeals to me the most (as opposed to the spiritual nature of other workouts like some Tae Bos) because my family is hindu, and it makes a connection. I love the use of sanskrit terms, and I absolutely adore that at one point, she said to put your hands in Anjali (NOT prayer position), because that's the correct term - AND it's the name of my eldest daughter.

I tend to flinch when I hear 'mind-body connection', but in general, I really enjoyed what I heard.

One complaint - I kept forgetting who Teigh as, who Gillian was (kept confusing them), and they sounded so much alike, I kept forgetting who was talking.

Overall, I just didn't enjoy the workout - even though I felt like all the elements were in place for me to enjoy it. I did like the yoga part, didn't like the meditation. I do medidate, but I don't like to meditate while someone's talking to me about meditating.

The drummer... I am indian (usa born/bred) and I have been exposed to a lot of styles of indian music - bollywood, bhangra, classical, etc... I know how beautiful classical indian music can be - so there was no excuse for this music to be so boring.

Want to hear some beautiful music? Listen to the little buddha soundtrack.

Anyway - my grade is C. I was disappointed because I felt like they could have really done better.

Instructor Comments:
I like both instructors. They seem like nice and friendly women, and their enthusiasm is enjoyable.

I enjoyed the yoga talk - it was a perfect mix of athletic and spiritual.
