Rating : - Not for Everyone
I was very disappointed in this postnatal workout DVD. I began using the yoga portion at just a few days postpartum. As a yoga practitioner of several years, I can honestly say it in no way resembled any yoga I had ever participated in - it was just a few poses over and over again. Terrible. As I regained strength, I tried the dance/cardio segments. I'm sure would have liked them if I had any background in aerobics or dance, but I don't, so I had no idea what she was talking about and she didn't describe it very well (what, for example, is a grapevine?). The pilates section required props, as did the yoga, which I did not have on hand at my house. If you are serious about yoga, or have limited dancing and aerobics background, or don't have the room or $$ to buy a bunch of props, this is probably not the DVD for you. I will give Leisa props for being high-energy and for the DVD including multiple types of workouts, but overall it was a waste for me.
