Mantra Girl Presents: Adavanced Kundalini Yoga for

My first introduction to Kundalini yoga was Ravi Singh/Ana Brett. This DVD was a refreshing change from their style. I am pretty familiar with the Kundalini yoga moves and didn't find this workout to be super intense, like some of the other reviewers thought.Erin has a nice, soothing voice. The backdrop of Malibu Cypress Gardens was nice to look at too. Two of the exercises in the back showed modifications.I liked the fast pace of this routine. I feel very energized after finishing.Erin uses different terms for some of the exercises and this confused me at first. She calls "down dog" by "triangle."It also would have been nice to have more explanation and words on the screen for the "adi shakti" meditation. I used to just say what I thought were the words. It wasn't until I did research to find out the actual words used for this meditation, that I really got into it.A nice, quick paced Kundalini yoga practice for those who are already familiar with Kundalini yoga moves.

I like this workout quite a lot. I do alot of kundalini. This is more vigorous than most. Great cardio in the beginning gets your heart rate up well for the rest of the practice. Music is lovely

This is a more advanced version of the Warrior Workout by Ravi and Anna and I prefer this one since it seems more compact. This is one of the Kundalini Yoga workouts I turn to when I am trying to lose or maintain my weight since it is cardio enough to qualify for "exercise" so I do not feel I have to do a workout dvd or run in order to get my work out in too besides just my yoga. Music is wonderful as always. This is a famous Yogi Bhajan set so it seems to flow a little more than some of the kundalini dvd sets that seem to be several kryia tacked together. This is not for the faint of heart and you might want to start with Ravi's version first and work up to this one since Erin does the exercises for longer periods of time.

This is an excellent workout!! It is harder than Raviana's warrior workout due to less rest periods between poses and the music is beautiful!(I bought the music for my ipod)Total workout time with mantra and meditation is hour and ten minutes approx. This dvd is not for beginners. I really like Mantra Girl's other dvd for beginners, also. I hope she makes more kundalini yoga dvds.I hope this helps in your decision.Sat Nam

This second Mantra Girl DVD follows much the same format as the "Introduction" one.Once again, beautifully photographed, and with a soundtrack that is so enchanting that you could listen to it on its own.The whole program has obviously been carefully thought out, and the exercises flow splendidly.As with the "Introduction" DVD, it is important to recognize that this is powerful stuff, not just physically, but psychologically and energetically. So it is really important to have a discussion with your health care provider before embarking upon the program.

I was hoping for something more obviously stepped up from the original DVD. If you already have the first one,you may prefer to get something else. I don't know what, but something else. If you wanted to go Ashtanga, Beryl Bender Birch's Power Yoga, I'd say.

Pretty darn good. If you like Ana and Ravi, you will like this. The intro is corny but the workout is spot on.

This workout is quickly becoming one of my favorites. I have been using it everyday since I purchased it and have left my other DVD's on the shelf. Mantra Girl is uplifting, fit and motivating. The workout is hard but doable for anyone. The music is great and the setting is perfect. Hope to see more from Mantra Girl in the future.
