All,<br>A woman who is about 50-ish asked me to

recommend a yoga video for her to use at home. I sent her

to a local yoga studio to their very beginner

classes - she has never really been athletic or done any

yoga. She is not really overweight and she has no

injuries. Any suggestions?<br><br>Thanks,<br>FBL

Trinka,<br>I know you've expressed some

reservations about the other board but this topic came up

there a while back. Here's a link to the discussion on

recommendations for videos for older

beginners.<br><br><a

Thanks boredcthis - <br>Any other suggestions?

They talk about the Lilias Folan video but this woman

is not geriatric. 50 is not so old really, but she

has never done yoga which means maybe she has an

'old' body.<br><br>Those articles were good skull, but

go figure the BBB/TB article was revolting as usual.

She claims to have been 'studying and teaching'

ashtanga yoga for 25 years. With whom does she study? When

I asked her, she couldn't give me a straight

answer. I asked, "So who is your ashtanga teacher?" I got

a long story about how she has been to India

before, etc. Read the article. She tells a story about

how Thom is 'afraid of strangers'. It makes him sound

like a mental patient. When you read the little

article, keep in mind that this is a grown man she is

talking about.

re: lilias silver series, even though the

postures are good for her audience, she suffers from an

extreme case of "fake yoga voice". i don't advise getting

these for someone with low tolerance for

self-indulgence masquerading as spirituality (unless you want to

give them a hearty laugh).<br><br>yomamasana
