She is the National Yoga Ambassador for YouthAIDS and the recipient of the 2005 Conscious Humanitarian Award. Seane teaches at Sacred Movement in Santa Monica, California and travels extensively.

Beautiful DVD
I love this DVD. Seane takes you through each pose with precision. You can do the entire DVD or pick certain chapters. It doesn't feel like a workout but the next day you do feel that your body had a workout. What I like about the DVD is Seane explains as your doing the poses that yoga isn't just physcial. It works on releasing your emotions that are deep in your tissues. Yoga releases the trapped emotions and helps you work with them. The DVD explains and demonstrates yoga is for the mind, body and spirit. Spirit is when you reconize (re-member) that we are all one in spirit. Sometimes you have to slow down on your practice and give precision of alignment a chance and the result will come much more than a rigid yoga exercise routine.

Great instructional class setting
As a fan of Seane Corn I may be a bit bias, however, I think this is a great workout with detailed instruction. It is in a class setting and challenging. I would suggest mastering her 2 other DVD's before doing this one.

perhaps in person.....
Vinyasa flow was never so disjointed as this overly talkative, poorly timed DVD portrays via Seane Corn. Her uneven approach largely tinged with an enormous ego, we find little sincerity in her dramatic vocals. If you are looking for something to enhance home practice, borrow this DVD from the library, a mere example of Vinyasa session, not a technique teaching tool. We found her voice grating, the camera follows Corne rather than narrowing in on positions and flow. How any of these followers managed to meditate with the endless ramblings of Corn is beyond our patience. Try Kundalini with Ana Brett for excellent music, active Yoga, breathing techniques, wondrous meditation......

Seane is great.
Seane is great, I have had her many times at conferences, so this was just like being there.

Good sequence and intention
I, like one of the above reviewers, had not experienced a Seane Corn video or class prior to purchasing this one. I was surprised at how different her style is than I'd expected. I found her instruction helpful and the meaning she gives to each movement, each breath, inspiring. However, because I am accustomed to practicing in a very meditative way, I found her style of delivery and tone of voice to be somewhat intense, and therefore, distracting. I suppose I am better suited to a Kripalu-style class and instructor. (I did not, however, have the same reaction to the Baron Baptiste or the Shiva Rae classes in this series. I found their voices and delivery very conducive to my meditative practice, even where poses and sequences got relatively vigorous.) I am sure that my reaction to Ms. Corn's delivery is peculiar to me, and that most people will find her and this video inspiring and helpful.
