Lilias is Back, Aug 14 2006
By Kate Schultz - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Lilias! Am and Pm Yoga Workout (DVD)
I watched Lilias when she first was on TV in the early 70's. It was my first experience of yoga. She was great then, even pretty sexy. This was motivating as I thought then if I did these poses, I'd be more "hot" like Lilias. Once I did the yoga though, it wasn't just about being sexy, it was about feeling wonderful.
Now she's created a DVD for people with limited capacity re balance and strength. I would say the average person in their 60's or 70's, who had no yoga experience, would be happy with this. I must add I have only watched the first part-morning yoga. As it was not challenging for me, I haven't watched the rest yet. However, my husband who is 61 and has some coordination and balance problems, and no yoga experience, did the first part with me and really enjoyed it, as did I. Lilias just radiates happiness and you can hardly not enjoy it even if the poses are modified. She makes it really slow and easy and gives hints and clues of how to enjoy it no matter where you're starting from. Just by being there and doing the asanas with you, she shows you how it feels when life is wonderful and how the yoga experience, done often and with concentration, helps you to find that.
She's still the cute looking girl, now aged like all of us, but genuinely in love with life and yoga. If you're feeling down, this experience will lift you up and keep you there for days. Lilias's tenderness, joy, and love cannot be ignored. Thanks, Lilias, from the bottom of my heart. You are the angel of our boomer generation.

Lilias for Seniors, Jan 4 2006

This is the best DVD that I have seen for seniors. It moves at an excellent pace and focuses on everything seniors need to stretch and release.
