Karen Voight - Yoga & Sculpting [DVD]

I'm your typical middle aged male recalling the great athletic younger days but noticing more than a little extra developing :). So my wife and I bought Yoga Sculpt and the Pilates DVD by Karen Voight. I'll discuss the good and the bad-Good- Core Essentials lunge and squat workout. Just step aerobicky enough to make it interesting but nothing you men out there will be too humiliated to do. She gets those legs burning.Yoga workout. Especially if done after Core Essential lunge workout it is quite challeging but doable by a beginner. I like it.Voight is ripped! Especially in the lunge workout which seems to have been filmed years ago. Even to a man it is inspirational.Bad - After the lunge workout Voight takes you through some routines that involve special equipment you can purchase. Better stomach and legs workout in here pilates DVD.

I was actually very surprised by this DVD. I'm not usually a workout DVD kind of person, but after working out at a friend's house to this DVD I decided to buy it for myself. I'm not a very experienced yoga practitioner and I don't do yoga very often (only when I use this DVD actually) but I am able to easily follow her instructions and actually understand what muscles she wants you to focus on for each pose. I like the way that you can choose to just do certain portions of the workout depending on how much time you have or if you want to focus on a specific part of the body. I definitely sweat during the mat work portion of the workout because it requires you to use so many muscles, and even though the pace isn't fast you are really flexing and using your muscles the whole time. I definitely feel like it sculpts my muscles.

Voight presents an excellent yoga workout with easy to follow instructions. It is wonderful for building and firming muscles that are not used when you jog or swim. I also enjoy her Yoga Power DVD. No, I am not a relative nor did I receive compensation for this review.

I LOVE this program! I have been doing Karen Voight's Yoga Sculpt for about ten years now. I originally purchased it on VHS and recently upgraded to DVD. Some nice features about the DVD is that you can do an entire yoga/aerobics workout (45min ea.), you can also choose between the first half or second half (roughly 20 min ea.). Karen's programs are very easy to follow for those yoga novices but diverse enough to allow you to perfect your form which further strengthens your muscles and improves your flexibility. She is very descriptive with each and every position which helps you tune in to your mind, body and spirit. This DVD will challenge you, you will break a sweat depending on how much effort you put into it, and it will leave you feeling loose and relaxed. I would recommend this program, and I have, to anyone! Beginner, expert and everywhere in between this DVD is a must-have for your exercise rotation!

Karen Voight is a great yoga instructor! Her instructions are clear and easy to follow! She demonstrates easier levels of the same poses. She is serious but pleasant. The workout was challenging, but I had no problem doing every pose. The flow from pose to pose put no strain on my body. When I was finished with the workout, I felt like I had stretched every muscle in my body. The music is well-suited to the workout. She models the workout in a studio with a white background and some austere decorations to keep it from looking like she is working out in a white limbo. She has three workouts on this DVD that suit various time restraints you might have. The 25 minute yogaflow workout was great to do before going to work!

This is a great workout if you can get over the old video quality. Lots of great options for workout combinations depending on what I'm in the mood for or how much time I have. Karen Voight is an excellent instructor giving reminders on positioning just when I need it.

I’ve used this DVD for years and it finally wore out!

Great workout as always from Karen Voight. I am able to do this routine and I have a number of limitations. It is also a quiet routine which is very important since there is not good sound proofing in my condo. I know that may sound odd but it’s something I have to consider these days.

Karen Voight is consistently excellent. Package delivered well before deadline. Very happy.

This DVD was fantastic both yoga and sculpting one DVD is a good idea. Really enjoyed the workouts and Karen Voight is amazing at what she does.

Avec ma coach préférée Karen Voight après les séances où je transpirais un max et où je me dépensais voici des séances de yoga pour me ressourcer.J'achète même en double de DVD car si un malheur arrivait au premier je veux pouvoir continuer avec Karen, je suis addict de ses cours.Elle a trois séances d'entraînement sur ce DVD qui conviennent aux contraintes de temps diverses que vous pourriez avoir. La 25 minute yogaflow la séance d'entraînement était régénérante avant d'aller faire une petite marche tonique dehors ou une séance de natation ou tennisKaren Voight est un grand instructeur de yoga! Ses instructions sont claires et faciles pour suivre! Elle démontre les niveaux plus faciles des mêmes poses. Elle est sérieuse, mais agréable. La séance d'entraînement était stimulante, mais j'ai eu aucune difficulté à faire chaque pose.après une séance de fitness plus dure je repasse une séquence afin d'étirer mes muscles et me reposer de la séance.

I bought this video because I had the "yoga sculpt" dvd and loved it so much that I wanted a different yoga dvd. Well, I got the same one! "Yoga and Sculpting" is "yoga sculpt" and another standing fitness routine. And I just discovered an "abs and back" mat routine in there also! It is three dvds in one!
