Travis' voice drove me nuts; I made it through a month before packing it in. In that month I made gains in strength, balance, flexibility, and cardio capacity.
UY is a tough, well-rounded power yoga program. Travis is a good teacher, my dislike of his voice aside. The biggest issue I had with the program is that you are working out 7 days a week. Even though the 7th practice is not very hard, still, a weekly rest day should have been included in the rotation and would help prevent burnout. Even a very hard-core yoga style like pure Ashtanga has a required day of rest each week.
Lilypad, you asked:
"Can you tell me how many yoga pratices the rotation does a day? "
From another thread, here is the rotation:
Part 1, first week:
Cross Train, Hard Core, and Meditation (10 minutes for Meditation)

This is repeated for 5 rounds; the fifth round (days 29 - 36) is:
