Mimi Solaire has been teaching yoga since 1999. From insight gained through practicing and teaching Deep Stretch, a yin yoga practice, she has created this DVD to help others release tension and stress, move freely and become FLEXIBLE FOREVER!

This DVD includes three 20-minute Yin-like Yoga segments + one bonus 10-minute section. You can do each one separately or together for a full 70-minutes of Yin-like Yoga. It is not traditional "Paul Grilley" Yin Yoga (where you hold postures for 3-5 minutes with passive stretches and specific postures that are connected to meridian system), instead Mimi holds the postures for about 1 minute and somewhat passive like traditional Yin Yoga. All of the routines are entirely on the floor (no standing postures). The music is lovely, but a bit loud (especially on the first segment) and it is a bit difficult to hear her describe the postures.
This is an excellent routine and I especially like using it in the early morning and a wake-up routine. It can be used by all levels from beginners to intermediate Yogis.

YOGA JOURNAL REVIEWS DEEP STRETCH YIN YOGA with Mimi Solaire A counter balance to vigorous yoga practice, Yin Yoga entails passively remaining in a pose, often supported by props, for several minutes. The three 20-minute sequences for the back, hips, legs, neck and shoulders in Deep Stretch are based on this approach. It would be easy to let your mind wander while in these long held poses, but Mimi Solaire, a yoga teacher and member of the International Association of Yoga Thereapists, engages your attention with clear instructions supported by vivid images, practical explanations of the postures benefits, and ideas on how to approach the practice. There s also a 10-minute bonus superstretch session at the end. Deep Stretch is a relatively brief but effective practice (the sequences can be done either separately or in combination for a longer practice), making it an excellent tool for keeping the mind focused, calm and alert as you breathe and stretch in juicy Yin Yoga poses.

The offerings are as follows: Full Program, Back Stretches, Hips & Legs, Neck & Shoulders and Bonus Super Stretch. My favorite part of the program is that throughout each pose Mimi holds each position for 1-2 minutes. This really opens up tight muscles and allows a deep relaxation to naturally occur. Mimi also ends each segment with a brief relaxation pose (she does encourage the participant to stay as long as they feel is necessary however).

Аннотация на англ. языке
This workout provides three, 20 minute yoga inspired stretching sessions. It is accessible to all levels, from novices to advanced yogi's wishing for a sequence within which to really deepen their personal practice. Mimi instructs the workout alone. She chose to do the instruction in voiceover which I felt was perfect for this type of stretching. The music offered a "new age" melody which was relaxing and soothing. The set was pure white and Mimi wore an all white outfit and performed the workout on a white shaggy rug. I thought it was visually appealling and created a sense of calmness. You can choose to do any of the sequences from the Main Menu.
