This ap would be even better if there was the option to flow left, then right through a few different poses.

Flow?
Could be better
Could be better if you could listen without earbuds through the iPhone speaker.
Im loving it!!
Im a yoga novice, I was looking through yoga apps for what seemed like FOREVER. When I came to this I said why not its only a buck. I LOVE IT!! The "instructor" was very thorough, and the pictures helped a lot. love the music they provide or you can add from your own playlist. just finished my first lesson, and I cant wait to get into the groove of YOGA :) I feel better already!
Proper names? This could be a reallllly good app.
I just started to play around with this and I think some of the names dont really match up with the pictures they represent. Also are there more preloaded yoga sessions? Or just that one? Please more connecting, balance, and core strength poses! Be able to edit how many breaths you want to hold for each pose. Moreeeeeee!
totally inaccessible to VoiceOver users
For people with low vision who use VoiceOver, this app is totally inaccessible. No buttons are labeled. VoiceOver cant read the text descriptions of each posture. Yoga is great for people who are blind and low vision. Too bad tha twe cant use this app. Tried writing to the developer, but did not even get a reply. Too bad. :-(
enjoy it
I downloaded this app mainly for the design. After a few days of playing around with YS I would have to say although it lacks a little bit in audio it more then makes up for in usage. I made a morning and afternoon routine. I also created to playlists from my iPod that go with these routines. I have thoroughly enjoyed getting myself back into Yoga. A- overall.
Not for practicing yoga
I have been practicing yoga for few years. People , specially beginners, should be really careful using this application. There is no warm ups, no preparations, no primary moves leading to a pose , basically not doing "yoga"! Without preparations one can strech their muscles inappropriatly and can easily cause damage to joints and muscles. Not a practical program .
