Summary: 4.5 / 5 stars, options for every trimester
Comment: If I could bump this to a 4.5 / 5 stars, I would, not quite a 5. I like that there are options for every trimester, I wish it were a bit more difficult, or offered more advanced options every now and then.

The section on pregnancy massage is great, get your husband/significant other to watch it!

Summary: Great Prenatal Yoga video!
Comment: This is a wonderful video. I am pretty out of shape, but I am able to do the whole video every time. Also, it has helped my sciatic pain tremendously with only a few sessions. It is relaxing and I recommend it for anyone!

Customer Rating:

Summary: Not my cup of tea.
Comment: I generally don't enjoy yoga but bought some dvd's for pregancy so I could retain my flexibility and build my stamina.I didn't make it all the way thru this yoga video. This dvd was just too boring for me to continue but I can't pinpoint what exactly about it I didn't like about it. One good thing is that the one workout does cover each trimester of pregnancy. There are modified yoga poses for the second and third trimester which is nice.

Customer Rating:

Editorial Reviews:

The best thing about this prenatal yoga program is that there is a model for each trimester. Instructor Shiva Rea demonstrates each of the stretches and exercises for the first trimester, and two pregnant women show modifications for the second and third trimesters (they're even dressed in different colors for easy reference). This removes the self-doubt home-exercisers often have about the safety of certain moves--especially in that cumbersome final stage of pregnancy. Using gentle voice-over instruction, Rea and her assistants take viewers through a half hour of meditational stretches using blocks and chairs for support. She follows that up with 16 minutes of floor work: lunge pose, bridge pose, child's pose, plank pose--all with the necessary adjustments. She winds things up with a four-minute guided relaxation on her back--the traditional position--with the second-trimester woman on her side and the third on her side with one leg up on a chair. By including the different adaptations, Rea has made a program with the flexibility to carry an expectant mom through her entire pregnancy--and beyond, if she wishes. --Kimberly Heinrichs
