can't take the credit
You will notice that this thread was posted over 2 years ago, and was compiled by the Yoga checkin folks, not me, so I can't take credit. I'm not surprised that changes are in order.
Yoga fans, do you agree w/ the suggested changes and additions posted here?

I agree. A lot of videos (and audios) have been released since this list was originally compiled.

http://69.93.245.62/forum/showthread.php?t=53609 I haven't seen all the suggested videos. But, I would like to add Paul Grilley's Anatomy for Yoga DVD as a terrific source of information about individual anatomy differences affecting one's practice. It is not a workout, but is in a lecture format.

The New To Yoga section at Yogajournal.com is quite good. That might be a good link for a newcomer.

We should probably put Candlelight Yoga somewhere, in the absolute beginner category, probably. I'd add the other Eoin's, too, just because so many people who don't think of themselves as yoginis are encouraged to have a yoga practice through his work. Intermediates, I guess.
I wonder if we could agree on what goes into a "don't bother" category. Probably not. But on my own personal "don't bother" list goes Yoga On The Ball. As sweet as Sarah Ivanhoe is.... And the idea of a list of links is a good one. I agree with Kimberly that the yoga-videos site is under-whelming, but how would a beginner to yoga judge that?

I would agree with all Jane's additions, she covered everything that's currently popular on the yoga checkin. I'd go one step further and bump everything else down to Intermediate though, the only exceptions being Ana Forrest's 5-day CD set and all versions of Primary Series by anyone.
The problem is, that would force "intermediate" to span such a wide range that it would become even more meaningless than it already is, if that's even possible... |

More additions...
Beginners:
* The Beginners Guide to Yoga CD - Shiva Rea * A Morning Cup of Yoga CD (comes with book) - Jane Trechsel * Easy Yoga DVD - Leeanne Carey Intermediate: * Yoga with Ateeka DVD - Ateeka * Divine Yoga Flow CD - Ateeka Advanced (IMHO): * P90X: Yoga X - Tony Horton I'm trying to cover things that don't get mentioned in the Yoga Check-In, but are still worthwhile.
