Gary Kraftsow These two excellent DVDs contain a wealth of useful and beneficial information for all yoga therapists, and also for yoga practitioners with all but the most serious of joint problems. Gary Kraftsow gives basic information about joints and joint disorders, (including the importance of prior consultation with medical advisers for more serious conditions) and then demonstrates the Viniyoga (Desikachar) approach to yoga therapy. Each DVD contains two 30-minute therapy practices and a third practice for maintenance or longer-term use. Each posture used is analysed and demonstrated in detail in a section that can be consulted if necessary during the given practices. The models used are reassuringly normal looking - no pretzels - and the practices are clearly described and accessible for most people The DVDs are very well produced and easy to navigate. They include MP3 audio versions of the practices which make them easy to do without a DVD player, for example away

This dvd has really helped me with my painful neck and shoulder - a result of stress and much work at the computer. The dvd is easy to follow even if I would have liked even more thorough instruction in the technique section. The 30-minute program is just short enough to fit in into my busy days with three small children. My father who is in his sixties also uses this dvd now. He has had neck pain for years and this is the first thing he has found that really helps. I just wish I had got this dvd ten years ago. /Marie
