Yoga Deck

These cards have a smooth feel, are beautifully designed in themselves and arrive packed into a sturdy box for keeping them together. They are in sections: breathing; stretches/warm-ups; postures; one OM card and meditations. Instructions are on the back with an optimistic thought to repeat as you perform the action or position and a list of the benefits of the particular exercise. Drawings on the front show the poses and the whole deck is appealing, gently coloured in neutrals and dark green, and a suitable size. I have taken several books on yoga to the charity shop because they were too advanced or snapped shut when I was in the middle of a pose but these cards avoid both problems. The approach is not too difficult or too abstract and the meditations are spiritual but soothing for an ordinary working person. An excellent buy for travel or daily use and a possible present for anyone interested in learning yoga or reminding themselves of what they have done in a class. Highly recommended.

These cards are fantastic. You can easily create a routine that suits you and your current needs due to the variety of poses and have the ability to make it easy/hard as you want at that moment. Each pose can be adapted to make it more or less challenging and you can adapt your routine making it long or short depending on time/how your feeling/what you want from the session. The small box means you can take them anywhere, I'm currently travelling around Italy and took them on a 3 day trip to Austria with me, they are light and take up very little room. It's also much easier to just get your box of cards out than it is to start up your laptop/TV, find your yoga DVD or check out YouTube for one and then spend your time searching around for the type of routine you want and then pausing it or rewinding when you need more time to work on the pose or find a pose that doesn't suit you. You can choose exactly what you want to do with these cards. The illustrations are clear and easy to follow and if you want more information the poses are well explained on the back of each card with tips. The information card that comes with the pack gives you ideas for different routines and tells you which cards to use for different benefits, for example lower back pain or increased flexibility or cards for strength. Wonderful cards would totally recommend them.

I'm enjoying this more the more I get into it, tho have found I had to write my own notes on the picture side of the card rather than try and remember all the instructions from the flip side of each card. Really useful when you want/need to do a bit of yoga but don't want to go to the trouble of using a DVD, you can just put your own little workout together for as long as you want to do it for.

I chose this rating for this deck of cards as it offers information, flexibility, lightweight and easily transportable. Basic yoga postures are illustrated, plus some variations in a few of them. This pack also includes several warm up postures and meditation cards. It is perfect for beginners.

Absolutely gorgeous cards. Decent sized and very easy to read! Comes with a good mix of different breathing exercises and meditations also - if you are not an impulsive buyer like me you probably already know this lol. Use the cards on a regular basis - the recommended routines are also handy if you don't have a clue what you're doing (like me also). Over all think it would be a lovely gift to someone who wants to do yoga or be more mindful!

This pack is great to travel with for visual reminders of yoga poses. Good if you have already learned them in classes, I would not recommend them for people as a starting point as you need to know some theory in order to build your own sequence of postures e.g. about pose and counter-pose, which is outside the scope of a card deck. The whole pack weighs 4 ounces, so it's touch and go whether it will come on my trans-Atlantic trip as planned. I hope I can squeeze it in, it's just what I wanted: clear line drawings and succinct instructions. Plus the bonus of an affirmation on each card - all in all, very well thought through and nicely produced.

These yoga cards are brilliant. Easy to use. Good range of postures. You can follow a set sequence or pick postures at random.

Item is fine, lovely large cards, clear pictures and descriptions in a sturdy box. I purchased mine as used which was fine, would recommend. The cards include: Yoga poses - breathing exercises & meditation exercises.

Ce deck est top pour les ferrus de yoga !! Et une super idée de cadeau.

The cards explain the various positions clearly, including a picture of them, are made of good quality card , sized nicely to hold in your hand and refer to as needed. I can even read them without my reading glasses. Love them.

Excelente juego de cartas de yoga a un buen precio. Vienen las asanas con sus beneficios y su nombre en sánscrito y una guía para poder armar secuencias de yoga

I ordered these to use with my 8th grade students during an Advisory period, along with a "Managing Stress and Anxiety" workbook. I use them on Mondays and Wednesdays, and a different student each time draws a card and then teaches the rest of the group the pose/meditation/stretch. They were very resistant at first, and occasionally try to play like they are "too cool" for yoga. However, I hear them in the hall saying things to one another like: "Hurry, it's Monday/Wednesday, it's Yoga day!" and "Who gets to teach the yoga card today?" and everyone always participates (I tell them if their pregnant teacher is willing to do these moves, their young bodies can too.) That being said, I did go through the deck and remove a handful of cards that I just didn't see working well for the environment. There were a few that just required a little too much ground work or space I didn't have in a confined classroom full of desks and chairs, and there were a few that, sadly, the students just aren't mature enough for (for example, the boys often snigger and make comments about hoping they get the downward-dog card - which I had pulled from the deck, but didn't tell them yet.) I am still left with at least 40+ cards that we can use. We discuss when each would be appropriate to use in life (ie: the neck rolling card would be great during a test, the cobra card would not- but might be excellent at home after a long stressful day.) Overall the deck is simple to understand with great directions AND an explanation of what the pose, meditation or stretch is good for, and the cards are very classy looking, in my opinion.

Mijn bestelling bevatte enkel een lege verpakking. Ik heb een retouraanvraag ingediend. Wat dien ik nu te doen?
