Editorial Review: Description: Yoga and Pilates Stretch. Dynamic Stretch is an intermediate workout that involves a series of deep-muscle stretches, ranging from yoga and Pilates to classic athletic moves. You begin with yoga-based standing routines that are designed to warm up your muscles, thus rejuvenating your body while increasing flexibility. Then comes a seven minute series of seated exercises that are designed to extend those previous stretches into your abs and back. Finishing with Pilates-style floorwork aimed at your lower body, such as a double legstretch and "v-sits" with legs in the air. This one-on-one instructional DVD, set at a tranquil poolside, features soothing music (from Asian flutes to Spanish guitar). Voice-over cuing emphasizes movement-specific breath control. Janis is known world-wide for her innovative workouts and presentations. She is accredited by AFAA, ACE, NASM and AAA/I. She is a featured star of ESPN 2,and star of 19 top-rated fitness videos.

 Rating:  - I Have Found No Better Tool For StretchJanis Saffell Dynamic Stretch is the best dvd for stretching out your body if you are not in the mood a strict yoga routine.

Rating: - Dynamic ZenJanis Saffell presents a series of gentle stretches to encourage more flexibility. She spends enough time in each stretch to make them effective. The workout begins with flowing standing poses and progresses on to mat work. A yoga mat is needed for all of the exercises. The slow and controlled movements make this a relaxing stretch routine. At first you are doing forward bends and back bends and then a series of flowing exercises that are dancer-inspired movements. You may ... Read More Rating:  - Bad cuing, Not balanced.The voice-over narration could be vastly improved. Several times during the workout, Janis switches sides, but doesn't cue to do so, and since you are not looking at the screen at the time, you don't know what's going on.

Moves opening the chest and back and leaning to each side to stretch the obliques are repeated three times during the workout. It seems like an aweful lot ...
