Can anyone recommend a good prenatal yoga dvd for beginners?

Shiva Rea's prenatal yoga is good.  Modified for each trimester & super easy, but nice.  it's by Gaiam. 

There's lots out there though - as long as it's prenatal, it will be good for beginners I'm sure.

I like ZenMama w/Rainbeau Mars. It'll be somewhat challenging for a beginner but prob boring for a novice.

I am a certified prenatal yoga teacher and am also currently pregnant myself.  Two videos I have found that I recommend are:

Jennifer Wolfe's Prenatal Vinyasa Yoga - This one provides 15, 30, 45 and 75 minute practices

Shiva Rea's Prenatal Yoga

 

Both are great for beginners, provide excellent instruction and good modifications.

 

I have to (greatly) disagree with the statement that anything labeled prenatal will be good.  Unfortunately there are many videos out there that I absolutely would NOT recommend because they do not provide the appropriate instruction.  I have reviewed a couple of dozen videos over the last three years and the above two are the only two I have encountered that I can recommend to far.

 

*Note: I am not familiar with Zen Mama so I cannot comment on it.

I love Yoga for Your Pregnancy by Yoga Journal/Lamaze. I think it is the best. I am a YogaFit trained prenatal yoga teacher and I also like YogaFit's Prenatal Yoga DVD.
