Buy Yoga Deck by (ISBN: 9780811828895) from desertcart's Book Store. Everyday low prices and free delivery on eligible orders. Review: Lovely cards and practical in use - 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. Review: Simple,Flexible,Excellent - 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.

Nice..
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.

An excellent purchase
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.

Beautiful box and Beautiful cards
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!

Clear and succinct
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.

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

I am a total novice at Yoga, but have been active all my life in various sports. My problem is that I am not flexible at all and have had back problems and issues with my hamstrings. Yoga has really helped me with this. I have strengthened my back musles and gained flexibility. Where this product comes in is that it can be an ever changing workout. I have never taken a yoga class but have several instructional dvd's that I do occasionally. For some reason I like these cards a lot better than my dvd's and I do them much more often than the dvd's. The little booklet that comes with the deck has a few suggestions for workouts and I use the back one the most. I love being able to change it up and try new things and do things in different order. You can't do this with a dvd and they seem to get monotonous after awhile in my opinion. These cards are durable and I place them right next to my mat while doing the yoga. I enjoy them immensely and feel that without them I would just have my yoga mat sitting in the closet. Your workout can be as long or as short as your time allows and that is a great part about it. The only thing I might like to have changed is that one side of the cards is so dark that it would be a little bit easier to read if the background wasn't so dark. I know that is a small thing and that is why I still give it 5 stars. Good addition to anyones workout!!
