ABSOLUTELY ENJOY IT!!!, Nov 9 2003
This review is from: Quick Fix:Total Mix Yoga (DVD)
I'm a long-time (10 years plus) gym member and aerobics class participant, so I'm very skeptical when it comes to at-home workout tapes/dvds. I bought this DVD after a taste of a Yoga/Pilates class at my gym to see what else is out there, something I could fit into my busy schedule when I'm not able to make it to aerobics classes. I ABSOLUTELY ENJOY IT! I like the flexibility and variety of being able to choose a mix from 8 different 10-minute routines with a few clicks of the DVD remote. It has the option to mix-and-match or to select just the Yoga routines or just the Pilates routines. If my schedule allows only for a quick workout, it's easy to select just one 10-minute routine if I choose. The instructors aren't cheesie; they are precise with describing and illustrating each movement, providing alternatives for each move to allow people at different fitness levels and body types to follow along. The instructors are encouraging without being ridiculous and insincere. The workouts are challenging. Simply terrific! I would definitely buy Total Mix: Yoga and Pilates PART TWO if it is ever released.

This DVD will not give you a good workout. It seems that the instructors spend too much time explaining everything, and not enough time actually doing the workouts.

Quick Fix fan, April 15 2002
This review is from: Quick Fix:Total Mix Yoga (DVD)
I am already a huge fan of the Quick Fix series, having had great results with the buns, abs, arms, and total body versions. The 10-minute workout format is very flexible; you can do one session for a quick fix, or go longer for more benefits.
I was definitely not disappointed in this combo! The Pilates instructor is very informative and keeps it simple, and the exercises kick! but you never feel too stressed out. I have done 3 of the sessions in a row (total of 30 minutes), and the time flies by. Refreshing!
I haven't done all of the Yoga sessions, but they seem quite rigorous: relaxing, yes, but toning, definitely.
Huge fan of this series; would recommend in a heart-beat! So glad I found it; really fits a busy lifestyle.
