Yoga Booty Ballet Master Series

[Timber99]

Does anyone have this? Do you like? Would you consider them to be advanced?

It appears that the workouts are not the same as regular yoga booty ballet and are more advanced. I wonder if these might be some good ones to take when I travel to have something to do rather than nothing with little equipment?

I am curious to hear your thoughts on these workouts, if anyone has them.

I find them easier than, and don't like them as well as, the Live Series (which I like quite a bit). A.M. Latte just seems a little silly and disjointed, hardly any cardio at all, and the Pajama Time is relaxing but it needs a lot of equipment (blocks, 3 rolled blankets, something else I think). There's an exercise (maybe a Kundalini thing?) at the beginning of one of them that involves whipping your head back and forth while breathing rapidly, and I had a horrible neck ache the next day from doing that. The Abs workout is ok; Goddess Booty is a little better, it actually does work the butt pretty well; and the bonus Yoga workout is I guess my favorite, but still I'm lukewarm about all of them. They're all very short too, 20-30 minutes each I think. I really like the Lives, nothing can compare to their energy and I like the little bit of fun dancy cardio in the Lives. The Master Series does have the usual intention-setting thing and positive "pep talks", and the "sat nam" mantra and a little guided meditation, just like all the other YBBs, and I really like those parts of them. But I also miss having the live class there, and I miss the Ravi guy on drums - on the Master Series it's just the two insructors and the music is not live. I was disappointed in the Master Series - you would think with a name like that they would be more challenging but they just seemed more blah to me, and the instructors didn't have their usual sparkle.

Thanks Diane I decided to try the live series, based on your recommendations. I didn't even realize that they had that series until you mentioned it! The worst that can happen is that I have to return it b/c I don't like it or I give it as a Christmas present. That means that I have to deal with BB customer service, but maybe this time they will surprise me and be decent!

Oh I hope you like the Live Series! The workouts are not at all intense but I find them really soothing and fun - it seems like people either really like them or really DON'T like them LOL. Good luck!
