I am in pretty shape. I do a lot of stretching, resistance training and
cardio. I thought I might try yoga in 2015. Why not start with some basic
yoga on youtube right? This video was the first one that came up from the
search. I saw how many thumbs down it had so i decided to read some
comments before watching the video. The comments from the yoga community
were a real turn off. Very judgemental and condescending. I am not sure how
far into yoga I will get but I am sure I will resist getting sucked into
the yoga cult in fear of becoming like these people commenting on this
video.

Im sorry, but Im not really comfortable with using the name yoga for
this..I mean, she has great body and everything but in my eyes this is just
an american workout for nice body inspired by yoga positions. The purpose
of yoga is something different..but its still amazing what she can do :)

Take some yoga, remove all the best parts, add reps, and you’re left with
this garbage. Yogis are lean because they possess mindfulness that lessens
the desire to overeat. This may burn more calories than yoga, but its still
less effective.

After reading some of the negative comments about this not being “true
yoga” I feel obligated to comment. As a yogi who has practiced for 8 years,
I can truly say this is yoga and I love this DVD! Yoga is the union of the
mind, body and soul. Yoga does not stay with you only on the mat – your
breath, spirit and mindfulness are taken with you throughout your day.
Jillian does a great job of connecting you to your body and creating
positive energy. DO NOT listen to the negative reviews, instead find the
openness in your heart to try something different and radiate peace from
within. Thank you Jillian~ 🙂

Lol. People are so funny. If you don’t think this is yoga, I’m sure there
are thousands of other “true yoga” videos floating on youtube. People
complain about everything. “Cultural appropriation”. Ha! when millions are
starving to death and being sold as sex slaves. Please use your energy
wisely, 21st century virtual protesters.

Wow! What a great workout! I’m definitely feeling the burn and I couldn’t
even finish the entire thing! Who knew such a calm exercise and using your
own body weight could be such an intense workout! Thanks +Jillian Michaels!

Call it what you like, I can still only get 10 minutes through before
collapsing in a heap! I’ll keep at it and no doubt I’ll improve each
session. Whatever people want to say about this, it does work, I can feel a
difference and I enjoy it in the privacy of my own home without judgemental
gym goers having a laugh and my moaning and groaning :)

Wow! Never experienced such a dislikable “Yoga” teacher. Seems more like a
drill seargeant and a boot camp… This is the opposite of Yoga! *thumbs
dooooooown*

I wonder what this chick would be like in the sack
January 27th, 2015 at 12:44 pm
Whether this is true yoga or not, I love it. I decided to try it because I
was just released from the doctor after 4 knee surgeries and could no
longer do martial arts (which I did for 12 years). I needed something that
was a good workout but also easy enough on my knee. This is perfect. And
has been great therapy for my knee. I also have a bad back and this works
well for that too. I just got 2 more of Jillian’s DVDs today to try. Don’t
know if they will be as good as this one but I absolutely love what this
has done for me :)

I just did this workout again. First time I did it I was in pain for two
days. Hopefully that won’t happen again lol. I have been doing Yoga off and
on for about 8 years, more off than on. But for approximately three weeks I
have been doing it regularly. I really feel a difference and recommend it
for people. I don’t know if I recommend Jillian Michaels.. she can be
tough.. but Denise Austin is a little easier. But really if you want to
learn #Yoga it’s better to take classses then use videos because really
only a live teacher can help you perfect the movements.

i find it odd that all these people who are claiming this isn’t ‘real’ yoga
are even bothering to comment so negatively. I thought yoga was about
mindfulness and positivity, the yogis I know are respectful understanding
people, i’d expect that from other people who also practice yoga. They say
this isn’t really yoga, but they themselves don’t reflect the spirit of
yoga either.

I don’t know what people expect from Jillian, really. She is not a yoga
instructor, but she is a great trainer, she is in awesome shape and her
workouts are really hard, they will make you sweat and your body sore. I am
in a good shape, I do different kinds of exercises and do a bunch of
workouts on youtube. What I love about Jillian’s style – no bullshit,
straight to the point and no time wasting. She does the most effective 30
minute workouts I’ve ever tried. If you are focusing on your body while
working out (not your spirit or mind – sarcasm), then Jillian has the best
selection of exercises to offer.

Yes this video has a lot of thumbs down and way too many negative comments.
But I just finished this video and I have to admit I feel AWESOME. No this
video is not “traditional” yoga, this is more of a workout INSPIRED by yoga
poses. All in all I would say this is a great workout video, but if you are
looking for a relaxing yoga video, this is not the one for you. I think
Jillian is an awesome instructor and very motivational, she really talks
you through the whole video. Love this, will definitely be keeping this
video in my workout playlist.

I stopped during the hip stretches at 2:43 because it was hurting my feet
to lift up my legs, so is there anything I need to know to ease this pain
so that I can complete this exercise?

I would like to weigh in on the argument and say that l did some hatha yoga
years ago when it was first popular, and a thing we did was, wait for it,
ramped up exercises to get the heart beating. These exercises have some
different names but l do recognise many of them. However, it seems to be
mixed in with some Pilates moves that l have also done at one time or
another. Overall a good workout.

Whether this is ‘true Yoga’ or not, I am feeling a difference only 4 days
in. I can really see myself sticking to this type of Yoga practice, as i’m
definitely seeing the results I want. I would recommend people to give it
ago; putting the negative comments aside. :)

The best!!!!!!

I made it through the whole video for the first time! I’m making my way
back to exercise from severe adrenal insufficiency and I love it! Today was
a success! ♥

I’m doing exercise from this video about 2 years ( and yoga meltdown level
2, too) and I think that those are very good and helpfull and my body love
them. I love Jillian and her vids!
Maybe it’s not yoga but it’s still great!
January 27th, 2015 at 7:58 pm
i though yoga was all about positivity and acceptance but the negative
comments are really putting a negative light on what “true yoga” is. i
think instead of making negative comments you all need to work on YOUR yoga
practice.
January 27th, 2015 at 8:08 pm
Finally a REAL yoga video!!!

It would be a shame for you not to melt fat when other people lose weight
easily using Fat Blast Furnace (go google it).
January 27th, 2015 at 8:25 pm
Wow…. how inconsiderate of the entire idea of yoga or the culture that
lives with this as part of their religion or lifestyle. Her face and body
language when mocking it being called a “practice… IE. form of exercise”
was absolutely insulting and disgusting. I will never purchase anything of
hers again. She can pack her abs up and get lost.
