Jessica Smith Gentle Yoga Stretch - Thoughts
Gentle Yoga Stretch is one of Jessica Smith's latest yoga stretch DVDs. This DVD contains two 30-minute plus workouts.
The two workouts are:
Session 1: Flexibility and Relaxation
Session 2: Stability and Mobility
Flexibility and Relaxation is a slow moving workout that uses static and range of motions exercises to work the various areas of the body.
Some of the exercises Jessica performs are neck, back and shoulder stretches, elbow and wrist rotations, forward fold, cat cow, modify child pose, modify down dog, pyramid pose, hamstring stretch, pigeon pose, and hip circles.
Stability and Mobility clocks in at around 35 minutes. The workout starts with expansion stretches inhaling and exhaling with each stretch. Stretches include lat pull down. and standing cat cow. Jessica proceeds with rotation movement for the ankles, knees, and hips. This workout incorporates single leg balance work (crane pose) with warrior posture positions. Other postures include goddess pose, pyramid rotations, table top opposite limb, child pose, quad, spine,and stretches. This workout also moves pretty slow.
Both workouts are filmed outdoors and Jessica is the only cast member. Equipment includes a mat and an optional pillow. In both workouts, quite a bit of the workout is performed standing. However, some exercises are performed in various kneeling, sitting and lying positions. Each workout concludes with a minute of relaxation.
Session 1 - 3 stars
Session 2 - 3 & 1/4 star
