Excellent Choice for New and Experienced Yoga Students
I am a long-time student of Kundalini yoga, and I heartily recommend this DVD to jumpstart the addition of yoga into your fitness routine. I have shared "Kundalini Yoga for Beginners and Beyond" with friends new to Kundalini-style yoga or to yoga in general, and the feedback has been extremely positive.
The DVD includes two 25-minute workouts, both easy to follow. Everything is explained -- you really can't get lost. The quality and pace of the presentation works equally well for the novice and those poised to take their practice to an intermediate level.
The first set focuses on the back and is great for building energy and releasing tensions in the body. The second set deals with strength building. I do both together for a super workout.
I especially appreciate the primer on the use of the breath and proper breathing, as it is one of the things that sets Kundalini-style yoga apart from the other types of yoga. The benefits associated with the breath techniques have made a tremendous difference for me, personally. The addition of the Matrix Menu allows for personalizing the workout to whatever order of exercises you choose. The DVD also comes with a booklet that explains Kundalini Yoga and how best to incorporate its practice in your life.
Ravi and Ana are seasoned teachers and both bring their particular strengths to their work. Ana is expert in teaching proper alignment and Ravi is known for the inspiration and encouragement he brings to yoga students. (I say that also from direct experience: I have had the pleasure of attending their classes.) In short, Kundalini Yoga for Beginners and Beyond is a must-have!

Results! Results! Results!
My husband and I have made a firm committment to start doing some yoga everyday and DVD's like this make it easy! I find Kundalini yoga not as uncomfortable as regular yoga. It's less about achieving some impossible balancing pose and and more about moving and breathing and attaining results quickly. The instructers (Ana Brett & Ravi Singh) are very pleasant and excellent teachers.
i have only been doing Kundalini Yoga for beginners & Beyond (alternating with their Fat Free Yoga) for two weeks now (everyday, religiously!) and i feel my body getting into better shape already! i feel alot more confident and for the first time in my life i really believe that I can reach my goal weight and feel good about myself again!
I was happy to discover that this DVD teaches the 5 Tibetan Rejuvenation Rites. I had read about these and actually practiced them years ago. They are 5 simple exercises which provide a complete energetic workout. I am happy to be able to incorporate them into my practices once again as I enjoyed them so much before.

Good for beginners...that's about it.
This is the first yoga DVD I'd bought and the first time I'd done yoga. I didn't realize how unchallenging it was until I bought a new one that made me really sore for two days after trying it the first few times. This one seems to focus more on the mind/body fluffy yoga stuff. Which is fine, it's just not really my thing. I'm more interested in challenging my muscles and feeling it the next day. I'll continue to do this yoga DVD on days where I don't really feel like putting much effort in to a workout but push myself to do at least something. However I must say that this was a great way to learn the basics of yoga. I knew NOTHING about yoga before purchasing this DVD.

Nice DVD
Very nice DVD. Easy instructions and easy to follow. I suggest review first then try the exercises.

Rave reviews from a yoga teacher
I teach yoga in a style that is different from Kundalini, but after discovering Ravi and Ana's DVDs I have found Kundalini yoga to be incredibly fun, and excellent for producing results you can really feel and notice in the body and mind. Their DVDs are my favorite yoga practices now - I invariably feel stronger, healthier and happier after I practice them!
The Beginners and Beyond DVD is a great place to start if you are new to yoga or new to Kundalini yoga in particular. The DVD is fun and feels great. If you are new to this practice, I would suggest a few things:
-Read the insert that comes with the DVD first. This gives some helpful tips like not eating a few hours before practice, etc., that will help to create a more enjoyable yoga session.
-Do the Breath Primer on the DVD - if you simply hit "play DVD" then it skips the Breath Primer, so make sure to go to the Chapter Outline and do the Breath Primer the first few times you practice until you feel you "get" the breath of fire and long deep breathing.
-Listen to your body - Ana does say at the beginning of the practice that if at any time the pace being demonstrated (for moving or for breathing) is too fast for you, it is fine for you to back off. These breaths and movements can ultimately be amazing for the body, but you may want to start them a bit more slowly - there's no "shame" in that - you're still getting plenty of benefits and probably more benefit in the long run by not forcing your body and taking it at a pace that works best for you.
Practice in a way that is mindful for your body, and ENJOY the benefits!
