1.0 out of 5 stars Do Not Purchase this DVD!, April 20 2006

By A Customer

This review is from: Postures for Pregnancy - Yoga (DVD)

This is by far the worst thing ever! I couldn't bear to listen to it for more than 10 minutes. The girl on the front barely talks and her husband does it all.... very annoying.

Not recomended at all!

1.0 out of 5 stars Watched it once with the sound on 2nd mute, Aug 23 2005

This review is from: Postures for Pregnancy - Yoga (DVD)

I couldn't stand the guy in this workout. Very boring I watched it once with the sound on and then tried again with it with no sound. I didn't like it either way.

This review is from: Postures for Pregnancy - Yoga (VHS Tape)

I saw good reviews for this video on another site, so I purchased it for my own pregnancy. I was very unsettled by what was contained on the tape. While Finger's descriptions are pretty clear and he does give a good introductory speech about the problems women can encounter with breathing during the later stages of their pregnancy, he includes a number of postures that are contraindicated past the fourth or fifth month. Downward Dog, Standing Forward Bends and Standing Forward Folds are all inversions (which bring your head beneath your waist). Most ob-gyns are adamant that these postures should not be performed once the pregnancy gets too heavy. So I find Finger's claim that this is a routine that can be safely done at all stages of pregnancy hard to swallow. Clearly, his wife Greta, the model here, was able to perform those postures in her seventh month of pregnancy without any visible side effects. That doesn't mean, however, that the same will hold true for all women.

If you have your heart set on this routine, I advise discussing it with your doctor before you begin.

1.0 out of 5 stars I could only stand to watch it once
I found the dvd to be very boring. A man does most of the speaking throughout. He was very monotone and not motivating. Read more

My fiancee and I bought this DVD and we are pleased with it. It is different then what she or I am use too, but it does work.
