Amazon.com: Yoga focuses on keeping the spine open and supported, so it is understandable why millions of people turn to yoga for self-care of their back, explains instructor Rodney Yee in Back Care Yoga for Beginners, a gentle, easy 30-minute introduction to yoga. Its 20-minute yoga workout maximizes the movements of the spine and Yee carefully demonstrates the back-strengthening yoga postures, sometimes using a chair (sitting in it or standing and propping one foot on it). His form is beautiful, his explanations clear. If you're a beginner, realize that you cannot begin to approximate his degree of flexibility. Your goal is not to get as deeply into each posture as the instructor, but to reach your own comfortable limit. Cautions are given for pregnant women. --Joan Price

The only problem that I have with this and some of his other videos are that sometimes when he is coaching the viewer's breathing, he neglects to follow through.

I've been waiting 2 months for this item, but it never seems to come off of backorder. I recommend trying another item.

Gradually I started researching alternatives and read reviews for this video and bought it. I don't have enough good things to say about this video, it gave me relief within days, I don't have back pain anymore. Now I use this tape just for stretching after a long day at work. I like Rodney Yee's calming voice, he has a pleasant face and the background music is soothing too. After this yoga I feel relaxed and can sleep better, ... Read More

It is a good stretching tape. The instructions are very easy to follow and the tape is formatted and shown by the sea-side. Very good tape.
Rating: - Safe Choice For New Folks
The number of amazon friends who voted on this yoga tape immediately impressed this reviewer! There must be a tremendous market for home self-care. Rodney Yee creates a nice, mellow mood, with soothing background music. The production value is high. The pace is pleasant and not too fast. I was surprised by those who wrote that Yee moves too quickly. I politely disagree! My wife brought me 2 yoga tapes- Yee's and one with a female instructor. I tried the latter, thinking she would be less aggressive. Wrong! I had to discard that one immediately. Yee is far easier on a new guy- and his back! There ... Read More
