Prenatal Vinyasa Yoga - Short Forms with Jennifer Wolfe

ALL NEW!!!
15 minute, 30 minute & 45 minute practices!

Namaste, Welcome to Prenatal Vinyasa Yoga ~ Short Forms with Jennifer Wolfe. Continuing in the spirit of her first award winning DVD Prenatal Vinyasa Yoga, Jennifer has made a short forms version of the DVD the New York Times said, "Make you feel good, even with a big belly...my arms and legs got a workout, and I felt stretched, connected and relaxed."

This DVD was specifically developed for women who are pregnant and have experience with Ashtanga, Vinyasa, or Power Yoga before pregnancy; but can also be used by those with less experience or practitioners of other forms of yoga if they listen to their bodies, use the 3rd trimester modifications, start with the 15 minute practice and only do poses which feel good. This DVD was created to be challenging while giving women different modifications for each stage of their pregnancy. It focuses on breath and body awareness to safely achieve a vigorous practice.

Fantastic Shorter Prenatal Yoga Practices

I am now 31 weeks pregnant, and I had been checking Amazon almost daily to see when this dvd would be available, because I love Jennifer Wolfe's first prenatal DVD so much. This, too, is terrific and allows you to fit in a yoga practice when you have limited time. There are 15, 30, and 45 minute routines, all with final relaxation at the end. Yoga has made such a difference in how I feel in this pregnancy, and I have a lot of gratitude to Jennifer for producing this DVD. The practices are challenging, but not too challenging, and she shows a lot of modifications. I am not crazy about the instrumental music during the final relaxations, but that is the only negative comment I have about this DVD. If you practiced ashtanga or vinyasa yoga before pregnancy, you will LOVE this DVD.

Great Yoga at a Great Price

After reading reviews for prenatal dvds, i opted for this one because 1) hints that the yoga would be challenging and strength building and 2) the 15- 30- and 45- minute options. My husband and I practice with the dvd 3x a week and he enjoys the workout as well. Also, a great feature is that the instructor does modification for 1st trimester while she is joined by pregnant students who do modifications for both the 2nd and 3rd trimester. The dvd is a great alternative to attending prenatal classes that while being beneficial can add up financially. Also, other reviews of Jennifer Wolfe's prenatal practices critique the rest and relaxing segment at the end of the practice, I find it simple to stop the dvd and do my own.

Great Options

I love this DVD. I like that it has 3 different time options so that even if you are in a hurry, you can still get the 15 minute practice in. The instructor moves along at a flowing speed. I has some nice hip stretches which have helped me to sleep better. It's good for all three trimesters.

Excellent! Challenging!!! Rewarding!!!

This is a fantastic YOGA video for pregnant women,however, it is very clear that this video is for those women who are familiar with yoga, particularly vinyasa yoga. It is most certainly not for beginners. In addition, I believe the workouts are extremely challenging and one who is beginning (someone who wants to take on the challenge) needs to begin very slowly (Jennifer does make adequate modifications, but I agree that there is still a lot of explanation missing for beginners!). It is also true that having done the workouts in the video one feels extremely strong, motivated, and full of energy, but I wouldn't say it's a video that is "soft" on a pregnant woman's body. It's challenging!!! It's hard and it's for those women who are physically accustomed to yoga AND WANT TO CONTINUE practicing the physical rewards that vinyasa yoga provides while being pregnant. In this way, I firmly beleive this video is empowering. Again, the only point I want to make is that it is not a video that provides "relaxation" and "relief"-it's more a difficult workout! The extra perk is that if one is busy, you can use the 15 min workout and get a great workout. If one has a bit more time, you can complete the 30 or 45 min workouts that leave you SWEATY and sore!!!

A wonderful opportunity to squeeze in a workout on busy days!

I bought this DVD because I needed some shorter workout options during my pregnancy. I have Jennifer's first DVD and LOVE the workout so much that I thought this would be a great compliment to it. The 15 minute workout is great on those days you just don't have time to get a whole workout in. All of the routines are different and therefore can be done in combination with each other, as well, for a longer workout. This workout style is such a great way to feel good during your pregnancy. I always feel so refreshed and challenged after completing Jennifer's Vinysas Yoga style. All in all, I think Jennifer has outdone herself with her new DVD!
