Yoga for the Rest of Us: Heart Healthy Yoga Review
When people tell me that yoga is only good for stretching, but doesn't improve cardio fitness, I recommend this video. Done slowly, the Sun Salutations are great for endurance, flexibility, and strength. Done more quickly, you add the benefit of cardio exercise.
I love this video because Peggy breaks down the Saluations into an easy to learn flow.
The chair version of Sun Saluation on this video also makes the Sun Saluation accessible to people who cannot work comfortably on the floor. This is also a great start for people who need to improve their flexibility, but need to start with a variation that is doable and then work their way into more advanced version. (And as trainers know, being successful is motivating.)
First thing in the morning I start with the chair version and then move on to the floor version as I limber up a bit.
During my last physical, my doctor noted that I had lost 11 lbs. in the last year. I told her it was my morning Sun Saluations.

get this! - V. J. Walters - nebraska
I am resuming yoga practice after many years. I found Peggy Cappy's dvds and book, and I ordered this dvd as well. I have (at 58) issues with stiff places, sore places and cannot do some poses without modifications. I wanted to learn Sun Salutation, but I am not able to get up and down from the floor to do this the usual way..Peggy's dvd will enable me to learn Sun Salute and still gain the benefits of the pose..she is a caring and patient teacher.
Sun Salutation without finding a place on the floor - crafty - USA
I'm more likely to work out, if I don't have to set-up a place on the floor, get the mat, etc. If you don't use a mat, you need to be careful, or your feet can slip. Saw this on the PBS show, and I'm glad I did. I do the exercises holding on to the computer desk. Highly recommended.
Not for people with wrist issues - K. Brown - Sacramento, Ca
I enjoy all of Peggy Cappy's yoga programs, however, this one which is mostly sun salutations should have had a warning that someone with wrist issues will be unable to perform it. Weight bearing on the wrists is required.
