What Paper Workouts Would You Like Converted to Video?
Miriam Austin's Yoga for Wimps (2000) and Cool Yoga Tricks (2003). Excellent doable modifications. Cool Yoga Tricks also includes suggestions for progression.
Kathy Smith's Flex Appeal (2004). Fusion of yoga and circular, joint-lubricating belly dance moves. Kathy also did a belly dance DVD workout titled Flex Appeal, but it included just one 10-minute fusion segment that moved much too fast.
Andre Van Lysebeth's Yoga Self-Taught (1968). This series of 10 asanas (Rishikesh series), beginning with shoulder stand and concluding with headstand, followed by Corpse Pose, is all done on the mat, slowly and carefully. (Such a relief from today's over-emphasis on strenuous power yoga!) It's an advanced workout, and if it were ever put on DVD, it should include many modified poses plus all of Andre Van Lysebeth's lists of contraindications.
