demographic for people that want to try yoga Tremendous amount of
content/value (240 minutes) Interview with Instructor Filmed at Half-Moon Bay,
Antigua Yoga instructor Barbara Benagh has practiced and taught
yoga for nearly 35 years. She discovered yoga while living in England and
began teaching there. She moved to Boston and opened The Yoga Studio on Beacon
Hill in 1980. In addition to her local classes Barbara teaches yoga seminars
throughout the US and internationally. She is a regular contributor of
articles to Yoga Journal magazine. She has several audio CDs of live classes
available as well as DVDs, the latest being Yoga for Beginners released by
Body + Soul magazine, and Yoga for Stress Relief that includes a discussion on
meditation from the Dalai Lama. Barbara was kind enough to answer some
questions from about this unique line of yoga DVDs. How are these
DVDs different from other yoga DVDs? I was drawn to working with
Bodywisdommedia because they produce DVDs they are interactive. Rather than a
“one size fits all” single routine that is typical of most products, these
DVDs offer choice, allowing the user to customize and change their yoga
practice to suit their needs. No two persons are the same so the ability to
change your practice – easing shoulder tension one day and an invigorating
morning wake up the next – come as close as possible to allowing you to
address your individual needs at home. Not only do people have different
physical needs, but they have different time constraints as well. If you have
only 20 minutes, there is a practice for you but there are longer practices as
well (some as long as 90 minutes) that address the total body/mind connection.
The sheer number of yoga sequences offered on each of these DVDs is a first.
They are incredibly comprehensive. How were you able to get the Dalai Lama
involved? This project dovetailed perfectly with the Dalai Lama’s message that
modern stress is one of the greatest obstacles to our mental happiness and
physical wellbeing. Because we are long-time sincere practitioners, having a
30-minute lecture of the Dalai Lama teaching how to meditate on the Yoga for
Stress Relief DVD was a perfect fit. Bodywisdommedia also has a broader
relationship with the Office of Tibet and are releasing historic lectures with
“A Path to Happiness” being the first one. How will potential buyers of these
DVDs know which one is right for them? The titles are very indicative of what
appears on the DVD and therefore a good guide. I really enjoyed making Yoga
for Stress Relief because it is incredibly relevant. We strove to make the
sequences accessible to as many people as possible, whether they are a
beginner or long time practitioner. Yoga for Beginners is a great, non-
threatening place to get started and includes lots of sound technique
developed over my 30 years as a yoga teacher. Power Yoga for Every Body is a
bit more challenging taking you from the beginning level and gradually
progressing to much more demanding routines.
