I like the postures just like what I had in bikram yoga class. But somehow I found the backgound music is dull……I need some encouraging and upbeat music to stimulate my work-out!!!

The Barkan Method: Hot Yoga
I have tried so many different types of yoga DVDs, (small town with no class) and this is totally my favorite. Other yogis are intimidating, even on the tube, but this guy actually encourages you to enjoy yourself! I hope I can move the way the blond woman, Lisa Taylor, moves. Btws, when emailing Mr. Barkan, I found out she’s the wife of Chad Taylor, the guitar player in Live!!!
Anyway. Rambling done. Basically, loved the DVD, you should try it :)

Excellent book, and very well done — I just hope Barkan doesn’t get sued by Bikram the way Raquel Welch did when she did a high quality, beautifully produced book and VHS tape of the hot yoga exercises. Bikram was doing reasonably OK for a yoga teacher before the lawsuit, but it took Raquel’s money to buy his fancy house in Beverly Hills.

The Barkan Method: Hot Yoga
I have always enjoyed Bikram and Barkan methods of hot yoga, but when I became pregnant, I needed an alternative. This DVD is the best that I could find with regard to practicing these postures at home. The two yogis in the video position themselves at different angles so that you can better visualize their technique. The practice session does not last an entire 90 minutes as the studio classes do, but I don’t mind. After finishing the DVD I feel as if I at least maintained my flexibility, however, I am not sweating. Overall, I am glad that I own this DVD.

I purchased this DVD after taking Bikram yoga classes for a month. I can’t travel an hour to the yoga center every day (as is suggested with Bikram yoga), and though it was very helpful, I just couldn’t travel. Bikram won’t release a DVD because they want people attending the studios. That’s all well and good, but some of us just can’t do it.
THIS IS NOT A BIKRAM KNOCK-OFF!
I found the format easy to use, complete with tutorials, and the pace is easy to keep up with. I like that they use modifications and stress being gentle with our bodies if we have issues. The asanas are a workout but you can still do what you can, and gradually, you’ll keep up.
I love having this to work with at home!
