Product Description
Amazon.co.uk Review
Geri Halliwell's transformation from Spice Girl to hip babe owes as much to her taking up yoga--a step she shares with us in Geri Yoga--as it does to revamping her wardrobe. Where Madonna and Sting have led the craze in this field, Geri has decided to show us all the yoga way. The 90-minute Geri Yoga features yoga teacher Katy Appleton presenting two warm up sections, a core Hatha yoga class, relaxation, along with an interview with Geri on yoga as a lifestyle.
The entire session appears unscripted, which means it captures the spontaneity of a lesson, yet it's presented in a slick manner from a modern airy studio. A former dancer with the English National Ballet, Katy Appleton's confident poise and ease diffuses Geri the star. Appleton manages to balance her instructions and attention between Tina (the beginner in the sessions) and the advanced Geri, enabling viewers to see how they can progress. Yoga aficionados will be impressed by the precision of Appleton's teaching and horrified by Geri's inane babbling. Unless you're a die-hard Geri fan who can forgive the inappropriate references to calories, you'll be waiting for Appleton to release Yoga without Geri.
On the DVD: Geri fans will lap up the extended interview, while non Geri fans will be thankful for the isolated music score. There is also an additional session geared to re-energising and revitalising body and mind. --Lorna V
From the Back Cover
Fantastic for all ages and levels of fitness, this is the programme that has helped transform Geri's body over the last 12 months. Created and introduced by Geri's yoga teacher Katy Appleton the video demonstrates exercises and positions that will be suitable if you are just beginning or are a more advanced pupil. The video has been devised so you can choose your own pace and programme depending how you feel at that particular moment; choose from poses that calm, poses that provide energy and uplift and poses that relieve fatigue.
"I got into yoga 2 years ago, I was looking for another form of weight loss and yes is has helped me keep in shape but yoga gives me so much more. If you want to feel good about yourself, relax and feel healthier this might be just the thing for you." - Geri Halliwell

Format:DVD
This was the first exercise video I bought, after it was recommended to me by a friend. As someone who is sooooo unflexible, I thought this wouldn't suit me - I was wrong! It takes a few runs of the video before you can master the breathing techniques with the postures, but after 2 weeks of doing the video each day, I could see definite results! The workout is broken into sections, to fit in with all hectic schedules, which is a bonus! Now, my jeans are loose and my whole body is toned! A great introduction to yoga!

I reccomend Geri yoga to people who wish to give yoga a try. It's fun and there is nice, comfortable feel to the video as a whole, although Geri's comments do get a tad annoying after a few plays. Katy Appleton is an excellent teacher, wery confident + graceful with a calming, soothing voice. I think best part in the DVD is the relaxation section.It is very useful after a busy stressful day. Katy makes you feel very calm and relaxed (plus theres a bonus -Geri does not interrupt!) Sun warm up is also excellent & very benifical. Katy Appleton is a fantastic teacher - very inspiring and she describes how to do the movements very well indeed. The whole thing is easy to use once you have learned all movements - which is picked up quite easily after a few goes. I only wish they would have included a Katy only' section as an extra on the DVD...Overall a very good yoga DVD/video

I had hoped that this would be about Yoga, but it isn't. Rather it is about Geri; what a surprise!
I thought Yoga was about integrating body, mind and spirit, however with all of the crass comments and chatting going on it is very difficult to concentrate on anything other than 'What Geri thinks.' I feel it is a shame she wasted such a golden opportunity to spread the true meaning and essence of Yoga to such a wide audience.

Shame about Geri's commentary
Great DVD if you can ignore Geri's banale comments throughout. She really does get annoying. And make sure you have "that sock"!!

Look at me!
This is a DVD I bought a while back and had forgotten why I don't use it all that often. In a word - Geri who proves why she brought out a song called 'Look at Me'. Read more
