So my alternative is to place my back against one wall in my narrow hallway and walk up the other wall. I can’t seem to get both legs straight up at once, but I think that might have something to do with where my hands are placed. With the door jamb method, you are supposed to place the hands around either side of the jamb. In the hallway, the hands have nowhere to go except next to the wall.

Well, at least I’m getting somewhat vertical.

The 12-week self-paced course is geared towards beginners (though I’d have to suggest it would be better for fitter beginners and not those with serious physical limitations), but experienced practitioners can also benefit. Each week begins with a video illustrating the various postures, followed by daily audio practices with PDF guides to show the poses.

Rodney and Colleen are happily married and it shows in their comfort and obvious joy in each other’s company. (I must admit – I’m a bit envious and wish I had a relationship like that!) They are very free and casual in showing the postures and yet quite specific.

I’m impressed by the comprehensive nature of the program. It is very well designed and executed, and definitely an excellent investment if you want to learn yoga from home.

I’ve only finished week one – I had gotten a cheap yoga pass at a local studio with a special and thus have been taking more outside classes than doing home practice lately – but the nice thing is, there’s no deadline.

I’ll perhaps review more later as I go.
