A love the Firm workouts but this is my favorite. It is a great way to relax and to introduce Yoga into your workout routine. I have tried other beginner yoga DVDs but get frustrated easily, but with the brick and strap it makes difficult moves easier. I would highly recommend.

this dvd set comes with the mat, the brick and the strap, so considering what you would pay if you bought all that by itself, it’s already a great deal in itself. The quality is very good and the yoga routine is great, too. I am a beginner, and I found it easy to follow, so if you are just starting to do yoga, buy this set instead of just a dvd, because you get all you need in one set for a very reasonable price.

This is a great kit for beginners. I’ve never done yoga before and this is the perfect kit for me. The DVD instruction is simple and at a nice pace. I love the fact that the mat, block and belt is all included. I felt very relaxed and refreshed after the routine and my muscles were a little sore the next day, which is proof that I worked them pretty good. If you want an introduction to yoga, this kit is for you.

This is a great workout from The FIRM. Yoga adds a nice variety to their other DVDs- it’s relaxing but you still feel like you worked at it. You’ll notice the yoga mat is useful for several other FIRM work outs.
The instructor, Allie Del Rio, is encouraging and makes sure to mention ways to make the poses earier or harder. She also tells you what’s ahead, which is always nice.
Overall, I would definitely recommend it!

This is the best beginners yoga kit ever made!! It is very simple and relaxing. The poses are not hard and are just right to get anyone addicted to yoga. I started off with this program and moved on to learn more advanced yoga poses. I highly recommend this kit for anyone interested in learning about yoga for the first time because it does not involve difficult poses. Some “beginners” yoga videos are a little difficult and often turn people away. But, this is the perfect beginners kit to boost anyone’s interest in yoga!!!

I like this pad. It doesn’t move on carpet and feels good beneath the feet. I would recommend the Firm.

I’m so glad I ordered this. It comes with the DVD, the mat, the brick and bands to help you really stretch. I looked for a Yoga DVD at the store and it cost just as much as this but it didn’t come with anything else like the mat. The video is great for a beginner. I picked up on the moves right away. It was very relaxing too. The only thing was I wish it was a bit longer than 30 minutes or at least had the option to do another work out. All in all I loved it though. I would recommend it for anyone trying to learn Yoga or just trying to relax after the work day.

I recently started doing yoga due to a severe back injury. I bought the Firm Yoga Beginner Kit and love it. It comes with everything you need to get started. Plus the colors that I received were perfect (if I was a guy I might not think so though). The only thing that I would have changed would be that the block was slightly higher. I have 3 herniated discs, but it probably will not be an issue for people with normal backs.

AS A BEGINNER, I FIND THIS KIT TO BE PERFECT & LOVED EVERYTHING, INCLUDING THE DVD. I WOULD RECOMMEND IT TO ALL BEGINNERS. THE MAT IS STICKY & THICK ENOUGH SINCE I HAVE CARPET UNDER IT. MY KIT CONTAINED A PINK MAT WITH PURPLE STRAP & BLOCK, ALL VERY PRETTY COLORS.

I have never tried yoga, and after reading and researching different mats and DVDs, I decided to go with The Firm.
I have been using the kit for a week, and I really like it. The 30mins DVD is prefect for a beginner, and the instructions are clear and easy to follow. The only reason why I didn’t give this kit a 5 star is that I predict that I will out grow the DVD in no time because the stretches are ideally just for a beginner. The DVD doesn’t really go into intermediate stretches.
No issues with the mat, the block or the strap. They are really decent quality for the price. Good value and good buy to start learning yoga. Way to go!

I purchaced this kit hopping it would help alleviate tension and stiffness all over my body which had increased due to my physical job and a recently renewed workout routine. It works like a charm! The first time I tried it I felt wonderfully relaxed and warm all over. I have tried yoga practice before but I was never comfortable paying larg fees for weekly classes in crowded classrooms. This was the perfect solution. The tape is easy to follow and is the perfect way to start the day even if you have a busy schedule since it only takes 30 min. I suppose that yoga enthuisists would find things to nitpick on the tape, but I didn’t find them to be distracting from the whole experience.
The mat is perfect for what it was ment for, an easy, relaxing 30 minutes infront of your television. If you plan on using it for challenging postures on hard wood floors then this probably isn’t the mat for you.
If you are looking for a kit to help start or enhance your home yoga experience then this is perfect. If you are looking for a kit to take to classes with you then you’ll probably want to spend a little more money for a thicker mat with a carrying case.

I basically got this for he mat & block. the workout is good–but a little to easy for me! I’ve been exercising for awhile now. Great production.

This is a very good yoga program to start off with if you have never tried yoga a day in your life. Its 30 minutes of calming and relaxing stretching. The instructor(Allie) is motivating and I like her style. I tried to do a different “beginner yoga dvd” and couldnt get pass the 1st move. This was easy to do and the included strap and brick help to take it to another level. Some say the mat is thin and cheap, but I have no problem with it, it is fine with me. This dvd offers really good stretches and helps me to relax and relieve stress after a long day or a really good workout. Intermediate and Advanced people should not buy this, it is too easy. Overall I liked it and use it weekly!

I have done yoga for several years. I needed a sticky mat when I found myself transplanted several states away to take care of my mom. I ordered “The Firm” because it was inexpensive and included a brick. The mat is nice and sticky, but you do need a carpet or rug underneath. The mat is too thin for using on bare floors. For beginners the video was pretty good too, although the instructor exhales out of her mouth a few times.

I have never done yoga before and this is a great kit for beginners. It has everything included that you need. The instructor is very clear and I was able to follow along with no problems my first time through. Stretched in all the right places while still providing a workout. Felt a lot less tense afterwards. If you are looking for something really easy to follow with clear instruction this is for you! The Firm offers great products and exercise DVD’s.

I have never worked out to a Yoga DVD but have always loved stretching! This DVD was excellent for beginners and the mat is good enough for me because I even use it with other workout DVD’s that I own. As I get used to this DVD, I will probably buy another Yoga DVD that’s a little more advanced. Overall, it’s definitely worth the price!

I love the Firm’s products, and I was excited when I saw this set. It comes with a sticky mat, foam brick, cotton strap, and DVD. The DVD’s exercises are led by Allie Del Rio, my favorite Firm instructor! The workout is very soothing, relaxing, and not difficult to follow at all. I don’t do yoga for inner peace or harmony or wellness…I do it to get flexible! This workout is fantastic! I’d give it 10 stars if I could!

I am happy I purchased this beginner kit. The colors were as shown. The tape is a good start for beginners. Since this purchase, I’ve used the mat and block with other yoga tapes. They are essential tools for yoga practice. I have no problem with the thickness of the mat, because I work out on a carpeted floor.

This kit is great!! The DVD is easy to follow along with and the mat doesn’t slip or slide around at all. The work out left me feeling great and couldn’t wait to do it again the next day. The block and strap both work well with the program. I am very pleased with this product. It really is great for beginners!!

Exactly what it says it is, for a beginner, and a kit. It’s perfect for someone who is not enlightened/fancy/rich person who can afford Yoga classes/etc. The mat works, the DVD is ideal, and all around a great bang for you buck!

It’s a great starters kit for getting your own things! The video is nice and simple. Anybody could do it!

This is a useful product for entry-level yoga. I had never taken a yoga class before using this video, yet it was easy to follow and simple enough for me to perform all the movements while still being challenging. The instructor gives ways of making each move easier or more difficult, depending on your ability level, and explains the advantages and uses of each pose.
Rating
The DVD is good for beginners, especially for those who may not be as flexible. The instructor does a good job of being slow & how to do the poses alternately. As far as the equipment, I don’t think you’ll find one better for the price. It has made me like doing yoga.

Mine just arrived yesterday & being somewhat new to yoga, I’m just happy to have a kit finally. However, I could see right away that the mat is far too thin & will be replaced with a thicker one soon. I’ll be letting my 3 1/2 year old daughter use the mat from this kit for her yoga practice, but only with an area rug or something underneath.
The dvd is nice. It doesn’t look like a low-cost production & the instructor can be easily heard as she gently guides you. But… I’m new & already more advanced than this video is. If you can bend over & touch your toes without bending your knees, you’re probably more flexible than the people this dvd is meant for.
The block is great & so is the strap. No criticisms there.
Overall, I’m happy with my purchase & don’t regret it because it was so cheap. I got what I paid for & expected. This mat will get me through the first few months & I’ve already found plenty of free full length yoga lessons online to keep me happy so the dvd issue isn’t even a problem for me.
