Yoga For Every Body! In Yoga for the Rest of Us, instructor Peggy Cappy demonstrated that yoga is truly for every body. No matter what age and ability level, Peggy eases students into the world of yoga where everyone benefits in mind, body and spirit. Now, Peggy brings you an all-new series of gentle poses that will become an easy, effective, and enjoyable daily routine. This yoga program can be done with, or without, the aid of a chair -- giving flexibility to the exercises as well as to the student. There's something here for everyone. Join Peggy and her friends of all ages as they expand their yoga repertoire and increase balance, flexibility, and energy! More Yoga for the Rest of Us is presented in three easy-to-do segments: * Part One gives your body a wonderful stretch-benefiting legs, hips, and the back * Part Two is a series of standing poses that increases all-important leg strength and balance * Part Three is a new and different guided relaxation exercise that conveys an integral part of yoga's benefits: reducing stress and quieting the mind Special Bonus Feature: Travel to Peterborough, New Hampshire to meet Peggy Cappy and some of her students, adults of all ages who suffer from a range of ailments and who have benefited greatly from their yoga practice. Peggy's unique approach to yoga has adults finding new energy and flexibility, and feeling better than they dreamed possible.

Summary: So so
Comment: There are not many DVDs truly for people over 50 or 70 that are applicable to this population and not just the upper 90%. This was OK, but could have been much better. I am still looking for some that can be followed like an audio tape (good descriptions because in positions you cannot look at a DVD), are at beginner level and slow enough for this population.

Summary: Not as good a follow-on
Comment: Being a huge fan of "Yoga for the Rest of Us," I was looking forward to getting the second DVD, but this second DVD largely left me cold. The stretching exercises are not as effective, in my view, and do not appear to work the entire body but focus primarily on the legs and lower back and almost not at all on the neck, shoulders, and arms/wrists. The standing poses are in some instances more challenging, but their explanation and demonstration were not as clear, practiced, or well-thought-out as in the first DVD - some of the students appeared to be doing the poses for the first time without a clear idea of what they were supposed to be doing, and in one instance a standing pose was performed while the camera zoomed in on one student's face (not the most helpful way to convey how to do the pose correctly, especially when the verbal explanation is unclear). The relaxation portion, while good, was not as effective for me as in the first DVD. It may be a matter of personal taste or a slightly different target audience for the second DVD versus the first, but I likely will not rely heavily on this DVD for yoga exercises and will return to the first one, which I believe is a much better production.

Summary: Bravo Peggy Cappy!
Comment: I loved this DVD More Yoga for the Rest of Us by Peggy Cappy. Her teaching style is so warm and generous and positive and
inclusive. She attracts those of us who need yoga the most, not just young
athletes that you find in most classes. She welcomes us older and stiffer
ones...it is a beautiful philosophy and I want to thank Peggy Cappy for
sharing her love of yoga and what it can do for everybody! I have both
DVD's (Yoga for the Rest of Us and More Yoga for the Rest of Us) and I do one of them every day...they have changed my life...I have
them memorized and never tire of them. I'm 48 years old and have done yoga
classes on and off for years...always knowing that there was something good
there for me, but always feeling I couldn't keep up or be flexible
enough...I would drop out feeling a failure each time.
Peggy Cappy and her work have been a blessing in my life and I want to thank
her from the bottom of my heart! Namaste, Diana Adoberavoski
