That said, even modified pigeon is a no-go for my knee in its present state - but I agree overall that the standing poses in 3 (and many of the other poses) are not necessarily more difficult than those in 2. Frex in level 2 month 1, she's already doing revolved half-moon (!). But not for very long - it's as if she's just introducing it to get you used to it, before putting you in it more deeply and for longer. Kitty, glad to hear these are working for you post-therapy. I've actually taken a break from them in the last two weeks to focus on my physio-prescribed exercises - though in fact, many of those rehab exercises are Jill-like, too.

Thanks for all of the discussion. I'm finding this very informative, especially since I've really slacked off on taking full advantage of all of the supporting resources (the teleconferences, the forum) on Jill's site.
And thanks for raising the issue of Jill's instruction on the pigeon. I think she includes that in one of the PAS practices (they're running together right now), and without really thinking about it I didn't follow her cues on positioning the one leg. Adapting things to my own needs has become second nature that I don't have an issue with that. This program has challenged me to try some poses or at least full variations thereof that I would have shied away from before, like revolved half moon! Sophie, I'm also on level 2 but receiving level 3. I haven't previewed that far ahead, but I'll make an effort to do so now. I definitely will preview all of level 3 before I decide whether or not to suspect my subscription before I start getting level 4. Anne, I'm throwing in PAS, Qf, and the TTD balls, too. In fact, I'm finding it hard to do non-Jill practices. I'm definitely not sick of Jill; if anything, I appreciate her stuff even more. Kitty, I'm the opposite: I'm sticking with this better as a progression. But then I'm looking for structure right now. I definitely see why you are doing it the way you are. I'll keep that in mind for later, once I've gotten through at least level 2 and maybe 3 and want a different way to work these in.

Hi,
Anyone really experience good lower back/hip/SI joint benefits (both pain relief and functional improvement) from Yoga at Home? Those are my weak areas. I did the assessment and was placed in Level 1 due to my aches and pains! Also, if I buy all of Level 1 in the Platinum package, does that mean my next monthly DVDs will be the Level 2 DVDs? Anyone also know of any sales? These are pricey! Take care, Donna |

Your first DVD in the subscription would be Level 2. You can cancel at any time. I actually requested they send me all of Level 2 at once after previewing Level 1 for about 3 weeks. So, they sent me all of Level 2 and since I contacted them before the first subscription DVD shipped, Level 3 became my subscription. |

Jill did say that she designed the program for injured people, among others. The only caution I would give is that occasionally you do stumble upon a ***? version of a pose like pigeon described above, that requires modifications she doesn't show. That would be my one gripe about these.
