Kundalini Yoga for Beautiful Breakthroughs - Ana Brett & Ravi Singh

I have absolutely everything that Ravi and Ana have ever put out, including all their DVDs, their massive kundalini yoga book and even Ravi's out-of-print books, which I was fortunate enough to find on Amazon Marketplace. This is not to brag, but to give you some context. With all this said, I LOVE this new DVD!It is such a concise and doable yoga workout, in many ways a throw-back to their earlier DVDs. Plain white background, no distractions (because who can forget the plastic Buddha statues, fake ocean cut-outs and booming ethnic fusion music of some of the mid-range DVDs).The music in this new DVD is simply marvellous, with the right amount of energy and an heroic sort of theme which I really resonate with. I feel that Ravi and Ana listened to the fans' feedback and have absolutely found their way back, in the latest few DVDs, to what we love: effective yoga workouts with a massive foundation of spiritual knowledge and experience which shines throughout everything they say and do.If you are familiar with the Raviana DVD collection, I can tell you that if you liked "Yoga Beauty Body" and "Journey Through the Chakras" (my most often played DVDs), you will love this new one. One thing that I really appreciate about this DVD is that each exercise is done for only a short time (about one minute), which means that pretty much everything is doable for everyone! The only exercise that I need to modify radically is one of the abdominal-manipura chakra ones, which has you pivoting your whole body weight on your lower back.As much as I adore this DVD, I must say, however, that there is a technical issue with it. At the beginning and the end of the DVD, when Ana is standing up and talking, her head is cut in half! You can't see her eyes! I was horrified when I first put the DVD on. None of their other DVDs have this issue on my Smart TV. Thankfully once Ana sits down to demonstrate the exercises, you can see her whole head and body. (One small thing though is that her white shorts don't work that well against the white background).The technical issue with the DVD doesn't spoil the experience enough to deduct any stars - the content is that good! This is the first time that I have been inspired to do the same kriya for forty days, in the true tradition of kundalini yoga.I know that Ana grew up in Australia, so I hope she knows that she has her biggest fan here in Perth!

I need to thank them both for creating this dvd and making it available for everyone. Just love it! Thank you!

I'm a huge fan and own and use all of these videos. I didn't realize that there was a new DVD out until recently (it's been available streaming for a while) and when I saw it here on Amazon, I'll admit I hesitated because I saw more negative reviews than usual. However, I just went for it, and so glad I did! This is a shortish (< 1 hr, which is a lot shorter than many of their workouts) and very doable yoga program. It is both a throwback to earlier programs and also a new style for Ravi and Ana, and it's great- I was smiling by the end of the first breath of fire section, and while the music is a bit different, it's also well suited to the workout.This seems like a great way to start your day, every day. If you are on the fence but a Ravi and Ana fan, get this video- you won't be sorry. Or you might not like it at first, but give it a chance anyway- I remember not liking the "new" lake scene videos when they first came out, but now they are firm favorites.ps- for those who don't like not having a matrix, you can try playing it on your computer. When I played this on my computer I was easily able to skip ahead and backwards.

I have almost all the Ravi Ana DVDs. I haven't bought one in a couple years. So, I was really excited to see this new DVD with only 5 star reviews!So, I was extremely disappointed when I pushed play and finally realized that there is no menu or chaptering on this DVD. Just one long 50 minute program. I rarely have the time (or desire) to do 50+ non-stop minutes of yoga.I LOVED the older Ravi Ana DVDs with the menus so that I could pick what I wanted to do. My favorite is the Fat Free DVD that not only has a menu of segments to choose from, but each kriya is chaptered so that if you want to skip something, just press the forward button to the next kriya/chapter. I could pick from a variety of DVDs with a variety of programs. I could fit in 10 minutes here and there if needed, or mix things up with the matrix menu. It was so unique and so useful!!!Also, as another review mentioned, then background is entirely white, and Ana is wearing white shorts. It's very glaring and not soothing to look at. Not sure if it's my equipment, but the video also looks blurry on my TV. I admit that I played this DVD for only a little bit and had to turn it off, as I just couldn't get through it all.All in all, not at all what I was hoping for. I wish they would go back to their old style of DVDs....

As a long time RaviAna yoga person, Yoga Bliss Hips, Yoga Beauty Body and Yoga, A Journey through the Chakras, my favorites. This DVD is about 50 minutes and is faced paced with minimum talking or pausing. I really loved that and felt it was a great workout too. Highly recommend.

This team is amazing.. I feel SOOO good when I do these routines; I have five now. It hasbeen my pleasure for the past 10 years or so to enjoy these folks in my home. I am 53 andfeel energized and motivated in body and spirit.This one is a perfect balance of all and I feel great when I do it! Thanks Ana and Ravi..

I love this one. The music is so amazing and inspiring. Anna looks sleek and elegant. It is more of a meditative and thoughtful session than some of the others . I definitely needed this one in my library. Thank you Anna and Ravi

This is an awesome set of fundamental Kundaluni exercises. A beautiful and flowing set that is sure to become a go to routine when one is in need of centering and a boosting of spirit. Suitable for all ability levels. Wonderful sound track.
