When I got pregnant I was so excited that I told everyone right away; way before I started showing at 5.5 months. My yoga instructor was very concerned and right after the second class that I had told her she asked me to stay. She handed me an envelope and said that she was sorry but she had to ask me to withdraw from class. I was only 1 month pregnant and feeling totally fine. I tried to explain that I would modify the poses as I got bigger but that I really wanted to continue. She said she was sorry, and I walked out crying.
When I returned home she called me and told me that she really was sorry it was just that she wasn't licensed to train pregnant women. I told her I understood and I did, but really I was only 1 month. She said, "when you give birth, please come back. I never went back. The only yoga I have done in the past 1 year is Wii Fit and not frequently enough!
Then I got a review as part of Family Review Network's campaign for Yoga 2 Go. I saw the word Yoga and was right away responding with a yes.
One of the best things about this for me personally was that I have certain poses that I love and I am able to incorporate those into my routine along with the poses depending on my level of energy that day. I like mixing them up. Some advanced poses with some intermediate and then some of my favorite basic beginner poses.
In A Nutshell:
For me there is nothing like Yoga. I love the flexibility and the strength I feel in just a few days of sticking to a program. There is nothing like getting into the pose, breathing and feeling your muscles working.
This is honestly a great program and so well priced at just $29.95. You can't beat that!
As with any exercise routine, start slow and progress at your own level of comfort.
Each card has a colorful picture of the pose on the front along with an easy color chart for organizing your sequence.
The back of the card tells you:
- How long to hold the pose and how long to breath.
- A complete, easy to understand posture direction.
- The benefit of that specific pose.
- How to deepen the pose if appropriate.
Beside this being a great program to use at home, this is a great program for business travelers who want to stick to a routine but can't a moment at the hotel gym into their schedule.
I used to work for 90% female company, the meeting planners traveled constantly. They immediately came to my mind when I saw this. It is easy to drop into your suitcase, takes up no room and you can manage a quick 30 minutes to hour right in your hotel room.
