The best thing about this prenatal yoga program is that there is a model for each trimester. Instructor Shiva Rea demonstrates each of the stretches and exercises for the first trimester, and two pregnant women show modifications for the second and third trimesters (they're even dressed in different colors for easy reference). This removes the self-doubt home-exercisers often have about the safety of certain moves--especially in that cumbersome final stage of pregnancy. Using gentle voice-over instruction, Rea and her assistants take viewers through a half hour of meditational stretches using blocks and chairs for support. She follows that up with 16 minutes of floor work: lunge pose, bridge pose, child's pose, plank pose--all with the necessary adjustments. She winds things up with a four-minute guided relaxation on her back--the traditional position--with the second-trimester woman on her side and the third on her side with one leg up on a chair. By including the different adaptations, Rea has made a program with the flexibility to carry an expectant mom through her entire pregnancy--and beyond, if she wishes. --Kimberly Heinrichs

Average Rating: 
Rating: - Great prenatal yoga dvd
This is a great exercise dvd that helps you relax, stretch, and strengthen. Whenever I have a headache I pop this dvd in and do the yoga routine. I do this routine two or three times per week. I supplement this with walking 30 minutes on a tredmill about two times per week. You will need a normal height chair, yoga block, yoga strap, and blanket to do this workout.
Rating:  - Great for expetant mothers
This is great, and the best part about it is the fact that they have the different trimesters to follow!
Rating: - Great prenatal yoga workout!
I used this video throughout the 9 months of my pregnancy. I averaged about 4 workouts a week. There are three women in the video, each doing the postures for their trimester. Excellent for flexibility and not strenuous. Music is cheesy, so I muted it and played my own music on the stereo.
Rating:  - Not very challenging
I got this DVD for x-mas when I was 10 weeks pregnant. I'm now at 34 weeks and I've done it a couple different times during my pregnancy, but its just not that challenging. I never break a sweat or get my heart rate up. It does help to stretch out sore muscles, but if you expect an actual workout like traditional yoga, this is not the right DVD. I gave up on it and have been going to a pre-natal yoga center nearby that has been much more beneficial.
Rating: - Really liked it
I really enjoyed this video, I usually have a really hard time with Yoga videos, the host usually seems really airy, and I usually start laughing at them. In this video she is soft spoken but I could take her seriously. It was really enjoyable to do the video, I didn't feel like I was straining to keep up with her. I particularly liked the different levels you could follow, and options she gives for any one move. Perfect from beginning to even after your pregnancy.
