Fittingly dramatic.In Kino MacGreogor Ashtanga Yoga: Primary Series, Ms. MacGregor explains how certain muscles are activated and why they become active as a result. For example, she instructs us that "Strong legs are your foundation" in Utthita Trikonasana (Extended Triangle). Another useful feature of the video is easy-to-difficult and everything-in-between demonstrations to suit Ashtanga practitioners at various skills. The advanced options, particularly Ms. MacGregor's Vinyasa moves showcasing her strength, flexibility, control and grace, are inspiring. Equally important is the beginner section that is made for "the blooming lotuses," as Kino-Ji calls us who have not yet mastered any given posture. Brownie points are not only for the proper forms demonstrated and techniques given but also for her helpful comments about the purpose of a posture, such as in Utthita Hasta Padangusthasana A. In this "Extended hand to big toe" the balance is a main aim, not a hamstring stretch. A viewer must be mindful and listen to draw in all this insightful information to get the full benefit of this DVD.That last sentence from the previous paragraph leads us to following criticism. Generally, information in the DVD is a little bit disorganized. Specifically, the Dristi (gaze) is not consistently given for each asana. Without the point of concentration, the mind of a practitioner can easily wander. Yoga is meditation in motion; the gaze helps yogis accomplish steadiness and concentration. So on-screen captions with Dristi points would have added more to the DVD.Another issue with this instructional video is its dearth of different camera angles. Without these, viewers cannot see what each posture looks like from both left and right sides, the front and the back. In general, alignments are one of the important fundamentals in Yoga. We need to see what a correct position is supposed to look like.Left out also is how long each posture is held. Actually, let me correct myself. Ms. MacGregor does say it. But it comes half way through the viewing at Marichayasana A (after 40:00). In Ashtanga, each asana is five breaths long except for the closing sequence. The way my certified level-2 instructor taught me about the length of each posture in the last fifteen asanas in the final sequence went like these.Urdhva Dhnarasana 5 breaths (3 times)Paschimottanasana 5 breathsSalamba Sarvangasana 16 breathsHalasana 8 breathsKarnapidasana 8 breathsand so on.Sirsasana A 25 breathsSirsasana B 10 breathsBaddha Padmasana 10 breathsPadmasana 10 breathsTolasana 10 breathsThat being said, "different" certified Ashtanga instructors teach slightly "different" forms, counts, sequences and techniques. Unless in Ms. MacGregor's own teaching with every posture having five sets of exhale and inhale, written captions for breaths added and edited on-screen later would have made this production a better instructional DVD. (I doubt that it'd be five breaths each consistently across the whole practice though--that's another discussion irrelevant to this review.)Even with all of these deficiencies, this almost perfect DVD is another must-have for Ashtangis to learn the complete sequence of the Primary Series and also complements Ms. MacGregor's tips on YouTube. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ I like this dvd and find it very very challenging *by S***S on Reviewed in the United States πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡Έ on February 18, 2015* Not your typical Kino video, if you're used to her youtube postings. I like this dvd and find it very very challenging. I haven't been able to make it through the whole thing yet and I think that's a good thing! ### ⭐⭐⭐ VERY VERY Advanced *by S***E on Reviewed in the United States πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡Έ on July 16, 2014* This video is VERY advanced, and while it offers a few options that are less you have to stop the dvd to find those then find where you left off in the sequence. While I find it challenging and love Kino I wish it was not so advanced. I tried to contact her prior to purchase to inquire about the differences between this dvd and her new beginners dvd (i am not a beginner i have practiced for years) and did not revieve a response, while I understand her very busy schedule maybe she, or her camp, could provide this info for customers so others don't make the same mistake I did. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.vu/products/70149007-ashtanga-yoga-primary-series-dvd-kino-macgregor](https://www.desertcart.vu/products/70149007-ashtanga-yoga-primary-series-dvd-kino-macgregor) --- *Product available on Desertcart Vanuatu* *Store origin: VU* *Last updated: 2026-05-06*
