Anyone wanting to get in shape like the stars need go no further than Bryan Kest's videos. Kest teaches wildly popular yoga classes in Santa Monica, California--so popular that stars like Rhea Perlman, David Duchovny, and Elisabeth Shue willingly sweat alongside the hoi polloi in Kest's packed, ancient loft studio. If you don't happen to be in the neighborhood, not to worry: Kest's yoga videos are nearly as good as being there. Volume 1: Energize is a beginner level class that nonetheless is smartly designed to provide challenges for all levels of users. Kest's Jersey-boy voice at first seems in contrast to the serene environment and inner-peace objectives, but it gradually becomes soothing and hypnotic in its own right. Stretches and strengthening moves are alternated with just enough repose to keep even first timers on track. After mastering Vol. 1, practitioners can go on to Volume 2: Tone or Volume 3: Sweat to further challenge themselves. As long as you keep in mind Kest's personal mantra--"If you're doing the best you can, you're doing this class perfectly"--you and this video should have many satisfying years of workouts together. --Anne Hurley

- Unrated but should be!
Overall this is a fine, challenging yoga DVD for those with some yoga experience and a good fitness level.However the production is really distracting; all the participants are dressed in tight white underwear and the cameramen focus on their "bulges" and Bryan Kest provocatively grabbing them in intimate spots to guide their poses rather than showing us clearly how the poses should look.It seems like he is going for a "avant garde, sexy" ambiance but it gets really annoying if you are just focusing ...

- A challenging and effective workout
I have only been doing Yoga for about 1 year and wasn't sure I would be "up" to this one, but I have successfully completed all 3 workouts on this DVD.The instruction is clear and Brian keeps encouraging you to go a little further to challenge yourself. I can do moves that I didn't know was possible. I do this one every 3rd day.In between I rotate one of several Kundalini Yoga w/Raviana DVDs and Rodney Yee Yoga Burn.The perception is that Yoga is all about meditation and stretching; while it is true ...

Rating: - Bryan the best
Bryan Kest power yoga collection has helped me a lot in my brand new yoga teacher career. I am a Virgin Active yoga teacher in Italy, Bologne, and I have nearly never taught before, but just lestening to him, watching him the way he moves during the lesson, the way he teaches, the words he says, and his sequence of asanas, all this and some more has been very useful and valuable. Thaks Bryan for your teachings and for share with us your knowledge. It's a must have collection.
Rating: - Better than any other yoga DVD I've done!
I've tried a couple yoga DVD's and I have gotten way more results from this one than any others.It's challenging but not impossible.I was super sore the first few times I did just the first set.I'm not a big fan of the fruity, earthy, fluffy stuff that goes along with yoga but I am a fan of the results.The first set is 50ish minutes and I thought that would be a bit long but the time flies by.Before you have a chance to look at the time, you're just about done.I had no idea you should and would ...

Rating: - Wow!!!
After a recent urge to get into yoga, I decided to purchase this program through Amazon due to the reviews it has gotten.I'm so glad I did.I've only tried it a few times but have felt great everytime.It is a bit difficult as I'm not flexible at all but I am definitely looking forward to mastering some moves.
