Budokon: Flow and Flexibility Yoga Review
First of all, this really is a great DVD. This is the only Budokon workout I have ever tried, so I can't compare it to the others. While I do enjoy the workout and do feel challenged by it, it is not one I alway return to.
Also, I can't help but feel a little cheated, 15 minutes of the 55 minute routine are spent just breathing (5 at the beginning and 10 at the end). For this reason, I only consider this a 40 minute workout. But that is not to say the 40 minutes are not challenging. I enjoy the bursts of martial arts thrown into the DVD, and I enjoy the flow. I always feel good after doing this DVD, but it just is not one I return to frequently.
I also own the Mark Blanchard 3 DVD Progressive Power Yoga set, which is another set that challenges me, but I find it difficult to motivate myself to do them. Maybe I'm not much of a yoga person. I have tried Rodney Yee, Ravi & Ana, and a few others, but I have yet to find one I love. I want to enjoy yoga more, but I just can't get into it (I should mention I am an avid workout video enthusiast, with a large library). So with all that said, this is one of my favourite yoga DVDs.
Budokon: Flow and Flexibility Yoga Overview
BUDOKON - FLOW & FLEXIBILITY
Budokon Flow and Flexibility will change the way you move forever. These carefully chosen techniques from the Budokon System (combining yoga, martial arts, and meditation) will teach you to address areas of weakness and limited range while cultivating kinetic chains of energy and seamless transitions. The special 30 minute bonus tutorial guide (one on one technique guide with Cameron Shayne) makes this DVD perfect for both the Budokon novice and the seasoned practitioner. With a perfectly balanced blend of Budokon techniques such as Rolling Wave, Dancing Dog, and Water Wheel along with foot and hand striking combinations, this DVD promises to be like nothing you have ever seen before. The DVD also contains a bonus director's commentary, consisting of a personal and in-depth discussion of the art of Budokon, revealing founder Cameron Shayne's motivations and perspectives on creating this unique art form.
What is Budokon? Budokon is a ground breaking mind and movement art form that draws from ancient yogic martial arts and meditation traditions seamlessly blending the two into one revolutionary practice. Budokon's creator, Kancho Cameron Shayne has devoted his entire life to the study and mastery of body organization and awareness through the classical arts of Yoga, Martial Arts and Meditation. His keen understanding of mind/body dynamics, coupled with an eye for the complex qualities of movement has made him one of the most acclaimed and sought after mind-body-spirit innovators in the world.

Ninja :) - Rebecca Mayne - caux france
I loved this workout. It's fun and challenging and I feel like a ninja while I do it ;).
It's got a lot of the standard yoga postures (up and down dog, warriors 1 and 2) but puts them together in flowing enchainements. The flow sequences remind me of Shiva Rea's graceful style but with a little more punch (no pun intended).
Not for beginners - Christopher Knight -
This dvd oesnt really explain how to do anything. It shows alot of diferent techniques and positions, but if you are not someone that can learn on the fly then this isn't the dvd for you.
Best starter for the series. - Laney Stems - Pittsburgh, PA, USA
I really enjoyed this DVD. I feel that this workout is the easiest of all three tapes. While this workout is by no means simple, it is will get you moving and help you build up strength for the next ones. This tape has no balance on your hands type work (i.e. no crow positions). My advice: start with this DVD then move up.
