Product Description

Amazon.co.uk Review

Among the many writers on the subject of yoga, Barbara Currie, author of 10-minute Yoga Workouts, has attained a position of considerable respect. She has been teaching yoga for over 30 years, and has some claim to being one of the first to bring about the subject's great popularity today. Known as a popular presenter on GMTV, the sales of her videos (such as The Power of Yoga) have guaranteed vast audiences. So is 10-Minute Yoga Workouts able to present in a book format the invaluable advice that she dispenses in other media? The answer is: definitely!

Subtitled Power Tone your Body from Top to Toe, this large-format, handsomely illustrated book dispenses with the less-than-helpful line drawings found in so many yoga books, and features Barbara Currie herself in large photographs, demonstrating unambiguously such topics as power toning for hips and bottoms, gentle stretching for the thighs, twists to remove tension from the spine and a programme for toning midriff and waistline. Currie does not assume we are fully conversant with the finer points of yoga, and the accessible beginners' work-outs and 10-minute morning energisers are perfect for those coming to yoga for the first time.

10-Minute Yoga Workouts is also simultaneously tailored for the more experienced yoga practitioner--the 40-minute advanced class is perfect for those at a more experienced level. Whether you're using simple stretching to relax mind and body, looking for ways to combat tiredness and lack of energy or using yoga to alleviate particular medical conditions, all of these topics may be found in this colourful and accessible guide. --Barry Forshaw

5.0 out of 5 stars Great book from a fan of Bararas videos, 12 Jan 2003

By	Linda Sherwin "lsherwin5" (Dublin, Ireland) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I have used Barbara's videos and recently her DVD.
- Obviously I am a fan of hers.
Sometimes, especially when travelling, it's good to have a book to refer to.

I love the way that she breaks the asanas into sections - Depending on the time that you have available you can do more or less as suits yourself!

Her eating plan is also very good - no gimmicks just plain common sense really,

Best Yoga book ever , in my opinion

Linda

5.0 out of 5 stars EXCELLENT: HIGHLY RECOMMENDED, 1 Oct 2003

By	Mike Fitzgerald "mfitzgerald34" (Bromley) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Never mind the cliches about Barbara Currie's being the Delia Smith of Yoga, or those who disparage basic yoga-based exercises that take up less than 45 minutes or an hour at a time...

The exercise sequences in this book are coherent and comprehensive, the instructions are clear, and the photographs excellent. The routines strike a good and rare balance between being too basic and too advanced: the way that they are shown allow you to do precisely what Barbara promises: to make appreciable and encouraging progress over a surprisingly small amount of time. You feel good immediately after every session, even if you only manage the basic morning 10 minute energiser, and the progress that you feel in your stretches and general wellbeing encourage you to do more.

I already knew quite a bit about stretching routines from martial arts practice when I bought this book, intending to use it as a programme of practice outside classes. I have been a little worried in the past about some of the exercises that I have seen instructors expecting beginners to do, and I would encourage anyone who thinks that good stretching may be beyond them to buy this book and allow Barbara to help you develop safely.

Besides the purely stretching exercises, there is much material in this book to help anyone healthily and safely develop better shape and muscle tone.

There is plenty here for everyone from the complete beginner to the very advanced: nothing to be afraid of, and inspiring standards to work towards!

5.0 out of 5 stars great book!!, 29 Mar 2004

By	"smcintyre12" - See all my reviews

The book is great for beginners or if you have a bit of exeperience. Its broken down in to small segments and one more advanced students. I especially love the one for relaxing before bedtime.

Each sequence is carefully explained with clear photos, advanced versions and states all the benefits of each pose (which i liked the best). The sequence is then summarised at the end of the chapter so once you know it a bit better you only have to look at one page.

Great book to have for weekly yoga sessions, whether you are after 10 or 40 mins.
