Описание:
Comprehensive routines and sequences of Ashtanga Yoga including the famous Sun Salutation and Warrior postures. Susan Fulton is an established, successful presenter of many programmes in the Healthy Living series. Susan Fulton's Power Yoga is launched amid much competition. With stars such as Madonna and Geri Halliwell forsaking the gym and turning to yoga, it's inevitable that everyone is jumping on the yoga bandwagon. Setting out to provide a basis for strength, body toning and emotional balance, Power Yoga, based on a more form of yoga known as Ashtanga, suggests that this is for people with a serious interest. But you could easily mistake this as a rather dull promo of a deserted Lanzarote beach. In terms of the yoga tuition itself, what this amounts to is the equivalent of a decent yoga class in a local community centre. All the postures are there but without the punch, oomph and glamour associated with power yoga. The whistling wind-type soundtrack is relaxing, but hardly conducive to the spirit of what is often described as aerobic yoga.
Teacher Susan Fulton would have been ideal to present a beginners session for yogaphobes, but in this contrived scenario her unimposing manner becomes unimpressive. And cruel though it may be, with the amount of successful yoga training sessions on the market, Fulton just doesn't cut it.
This video guides you through a relatively basic yoga workout, with a well designed sequence of moderately challenging postures. The video begins with Susan Fulton lying on the beach, talking us through some gentle stretches designed to get us moving. There follows an eight minute sequence of standing stretches before the sun salutation, two repetitions on each side. Further standing postures begin with tree balance, followed by triangle, side angle bend and forward bends. Thirty minutes into the video we go into warrior sequence, which includes warrior I and II and some leg stretches.
The seated sequence includes forward and backward bends, some spinal twists and leg stretches before moving into cat, dog and child's pose. The active part of this video finishes with the dog balance pose illustrated on the video cover, followed by five minute of lying down twists and relaxation. During most of this video, Susan Fulton gives guidance on how to co-ordinate movement with breath and where to direct your concentration. The instructions are delivered as a talk over, which is concise and well thought out. Additional guidance is given during the poses and often manages to identify the area in which a beginner is likely to be experiencing problems, suggesting a remedy or compromise. There is also a four minute "Breath and movement sequence", for those without the time to use the whole video.
The scenery is lovely, being set both on the beach and in some arid areas of Lanzarote. It may be incorrect to call it "Power" yoga, as many of the poses use modifications for beginners. The triangle for instance shows one hand resting above or below your knee. These relatively modest demands make the video accessible to everyone and an excellent routine for beginners.
