Review

Originally I purchased this book for my 83-year old Mother. When it arrived I decided to do the exercises so I could better help her. Well, I fell in love with the feeling the yoga exercises in this book gave my body. I have exercised regularly for over 5 years and was active prior to that. Before reading this book, my exercise routine involved limited stretches prior to working out with free weights. Now, the yoga exercises found in this book, added to my daily routine of weight lifting, have brought a sense of balance to my body. Highly recommend this book. --Helen Longest-Saccone from Boston, MA, United States

1.0 out of 5 stars disappointing, 11 Feb 2004
By A Customer
Just another Yoga book. The postures described are beautifully photographed however miss the reference to the senior student.
The book just presents a simple series of basic Yoga postures mentioning the common contra indications as in any other Yoga book. Special requirements for the eldery are not really considered and alternatives are rarely given. Disappointing.

4.0 out of 5 stars This book was easy to read with easily followed instructions, 28 Oct 1998
By A Customer
As a yoga student as well as an instructor, I found this book an excellent resource for a beginner of any age. Ms. Ward directs the new student through the yoga postures in a concise manner which is easy to read. Her instructions are also easy to follow and she offers modifications for those who are less flexible as well as offering challenges for students who, either through regular practice or general good health, wish to add a few harder postures. I use this series during my classes with good results and beginners of all ages seem to enjoy it.
