Ellen Barrett's Yogini Workout |
 I LOVE THIS |
| Having never done yoga before, I like that this is an infused workout. I have ALL of Ellen Barrett's workouts, so I am a big fan. This workout was tougher than I thought it would be. I had never done these yoga poses but I really loved them. I especially like all of the low back work because this is an area that sometimes gets neglected. I felt so stretched and elongated when this was over and I got my heart rate up too. Ellen is just the best! - posted by Jill on 5/11/2012 |

 Great yoga infused workout |
| I really liked this workout. Although I thought it was going to be a bit more Yoga like, which it does incorporate a lot of yoga poses, it is not a yoga routine persay. However don't let that deter you. I found this workout very good and very well done. I like it a lot and will continue to get more of her videos. I like how she has incorporated the yoga poses into her own "flow" making each exercise challenging but not strenuous. - posted by Jena on 3/27/2012 |

| Yogini Workout |
| This is a fantastic workout. I love it. I feel challenged by the routine. Ellen is smooth with the transitions in the workout and there is always a way to take it down a notch if needed. This workout will definitely get results. - posted by Ellen on 3/9/2012 |

| Definitely a Challenge |
| This workout is a definite challenge for my body. The difference between this workout and a conventional yoga workout is Ellen Barrett. She is a Godsend for my body and mind. I am in my 40's and hopefully will enter my 50's still in the same good fitness shape. - posted by Angi on 3/1/2012 |

| More like an Advanced workout! |
| This workout should be advertised as "Advanced" level rather than "Intermediate". I am fit and the right weight (for me), but I find this workout too demanding, fast paced, perhaps too many repetitions of the same movements. It could be improved with an "interval training" format where some of the challenging moves are spaced in between less demanding (stretching, gentle toning). I do like Ellen's focus on smooth movements and transitions, fluidity and grace. So I ignore or adapt the movements to suit my endurance level, often following the example set by one of the "team" who shows less intense options. It is a good workout, but generally an infrequent choice in my daily cross-training routines. - posted by Beverly on 2/11/2012 |

| aerobic |
| I'm not fully recovered from surgery. I am able to do yoga, but not yet this Yogini routine because it's just a bit too fast for me, I'm not able to to the cobra and I cannot jump. However, once I've fully recovered, this will be a nice little alternative to an aerobic routine. - posted by LeeAnn on 1/26/2012 |

| Most exhausting workout ever |
| Even though I like Ellen Barrett and have bought quite a few of her videos, consider this a "sour grapes" review--"Sour grapes" because I really couldn't do a lot of the exercises in this program. Maybe that's why everything annoyed me--the same studio setting, the same exercise talent, even some of the same verbiage. Everything was intense and difficult, even the so-called "stretches," which, in an Ellen Barrett video, are just more hard exercises by another name. Maybe you'd like it if you like extremely challenging workouts. Not for me. - posted by Maggie on 1/4/2012 |

| Ok |
| I think this is good for what it is, a yoga dvd with an emphasis on legs, bottom, and core. Ellen even lists these areas as target zones on the back cover, although doesn't list them in any other online descriptions. That's a disappointment and I was hoping for more total body toning. That being said, I really like Ellen as a trainer and will keep this in my rotation to use on lighter days and in between runs. She does target arms in a few poses, so that gives me something to feel like I'm getting a good overall workout. I also love her Skinny Sculpt dvd, if you're looking for a toning only workout. It's awesome! - posted by Jen on 12/30/2011 |

| Love Love Love it! |
| I'm not very flexible, so I can't do a lot of other yoga videos. This one is my favorite! It reduces stress and makes me feel incredibly good afterward! I would recommend it to everyone who loves Ellen Barrett! It's tough enough to feel my muscles tightened after, but not tough enough that I want to quit. - posted by Ilona on 12/20/2011 |
