1.0 out of 5 stars Not much yoga here

This dvd was a dissappointment. There are lots of gimmicks, strange adults trying too hard, kids doing break dance and other non-yoga related moves. Basically there is minimal yoga, the format is all over the place, it's not fun or easy to follow.

2.0 out of 5 stars my 2-year old likes this; I don't

This is a poor introduction to yoga. On the plus side, my daughter seems engaged by some of it, and it does encourage movement and teaches some fun poses, but it is way too fast-paced and busy, with constant silly interruptions. The story line is practically non-sensical. I am amazed that it even claims on the package to be appropriate for children with ADH. I am not an ADH expert, but, this video is unfocused. The music is a bit raucous and irritating. I was also hoping for more real footage of African animals, but there is hardly any. Overall, disappointing!

4.0 out of 5 stars Not strictly Yoga. . .
Reviewed in the United States on August 12, 2004
but a good introduction. I agree with one of the reviewers who mentions the somewhat cheesy production and hostesses. Their costumes are weird. Most of the conversation is in a rap format. There is some history of Yoga thrown in, along with a small dance break in the middle, which shows some break dance/hip-hop moves. African Animals are used to introduce most of the yoga moves. Children are encouraged to listen to their bodies, so they don't over stretch. Some of the moves covered were cobra, downward facing dog, and warrior pose. Though they have been renamed with animal names. The poses are shown twice. Once by the hostesses, and then intercut with clips of kids doing the poses. Breathing techniques are covered briefly. My 3 1/2 yr. old loved it, but couldn't not do all the moves. After a couple of viewings it started to grow on me.

They actually request it. My older son tries to do the poses, while my younger son just watches it, fascinated. One of the best kids excersize DVD's I have seen. I can't wait until the next one.

1.0 out of 5 stars Really bad!
Reviewed in the United States on July 3, 2009
This is a really terrible video. My daughter wanted to do yoga, not stand around and watch a 1970s meets the year 2009 cross-over acid trip. Seriously, 15 minutes into the video, they had introduced 2 poses, TOPS. Really...almost no exercise happening during this video. It is like a really bad, home-made video that a couple of kids put together for a school project. We also have the Gaiam Kids YOGAKIDS ABC's. She loves that one, and we were hoping for more of the same. BIG DISAPPOINTMENT!

2.0 out of 5 stars The kids don't like it
Reviewed in the United States on January 24, 2005
I have a small home daycare and thought this would be great to get the kids up and moving during the long cold winter. Well they range in age from 4 1/2 to 2 and they all hate it. It's not that long and no children were left even looking at it by the time it ended. There were too many weird interuptions and not enough movement and following along. I would not recommned this at all.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Psychedelic Yoga Trip
Reviewed in the United States on May 19, 2006
It is Yoga meets hip hop meets the 60's. Lots of fun and my daughter who is just under two loves it. She does her best to do the poses and really enjoys the bright colors. My husband and I get a real kick out of it and it brings back some interesting memories for us. However, if you are looking for serious yoga this is not the video for you. It is just way more fun than that.

If you want a video that gets your child started with yoga that is lots of fun and not too serious this is the one for you. My only complaint is it is just too short. I want more.

This was a waste of time and money. If it had come with a money back guarantee, I would demand it now. This was really bad.
