Laugh and Learn About Breastfeeding

CD-Charts > Music > Instructional
starring: Sheri Bayles
directed by: Gene Cernilli

Release Date March 24, 2005
I'm a first time mom and have had trouble finding classes in my area, so I purchased all three of the Laugh and Learn DVDs. I watched the breastfeeding DVD for the first time today, and was very satisfied with it. I had read reviews that Sheri Bayles is annoying and the film quality is poor, so I was a bit wary. Luckily I found that I really enjoyed the video, and thought that Sheri portrayed herself very well - I would love to be in an actual class with her! I didn't think her humor was hilarious, but it didn't seem like she was trying hard to be funny and entertaining either - she came across as genuine and simply being herself while sharing real-life experiences.

The DVD is rather brief, especially considering the price, ... Read More:

Bounce: Let's Talk!

CD-Charts > Music > Instructional
starring: Elizabeth Balzano

Release Date August 14, 2007
All my kids are "on the spectrum"--the older two (now 18 & 11) are extremely verbal Asperger's kids, but the younger two (preschoolers) were diagnosed in June as "severely autistic," with extremely limited expressive language ability. They literally never asked for anything they needed; they would wait patiently for their needs to be magically met, or they would cry or scream until someone guessed what the problem was, or they would "hand lead"--they would try to physically make the adult do what they wanted but wouldn't ...

It's easy to follow, interesting, not too slow and he has a very dry sense of humor, which I find entertaining

The Ultimate Physics Tutor - 11 Hour Course! - 2 DVD Set! - Learn By Examples!

CD-Charts > Music > Instructional
starring: Jason Gibson
directed by: Jason Gibson

Release Date June 02, 2006
It's good, but it will not help you pass your exam on it's own. You will need to study and remember that you'll get out of the subject what you put into it. That said, he does answer some questions for those struggling with the fundamentals.

T'ai Chi Fundamentals

CD-Charts > Music > Instructional
starring: Tricia Yu

Release Date January 20, 2004
This DVD offers the beginner a way to understand the principles that are essential to Tai Chi practice whithout being overwhelmed. Simple practice sessions with this DVD allow the practitioner to make measurable progress in their own Tai Chi. The demonstrations with the mirrors make this by far the easiest DVD to follow that I have tried. The simple instructions in posture and breathing are enough to make this eries worth it. Consider the companion book as weill since it has some extra warm up exercises that are fun and challenging.

Beating Blackjack with Andy Bloch

CD-Charts > Music > Instructional
starring: Andy Bloch
directed by: Michael Keller

Release Date April 01, 2006
A top notch DVD. Andy Bloch is great at explaining and teaching in this video. The DVD takes you through Basic Strategy, card counting, betting and MIT style team play to make some real money. The whole production is nicely put together and presented. This DVD is ideal for begginers to the game BlackJack. Beating BlackJack is a fine addition to anyone's gambling library.

Uta Hagen's Acting Class: The DVDs

CD-Charts > Music > Instructional
starring: Uta Hagen

Release Date April 06, 2004
Uta Hagen is one of the greatest acting teachers of the 20th century. This DVD really captures her essence, her wit, her technique, and her insight. It truly is a treasure to see her. If you haven't read her book, you'll still get plenty out of it. If you have, you will love it all the greater. To really hear her voice telling all about her exercises and ideals is amazing. Anyone who loves the theatre and wants to be an actor would greatly appreciate, love, and find useful. I implore all of you to buy this!I certainly will use it for a long time to come!

Piano Lessons: Learning the Piano Keyboard, how to play piano instructional DVD

CD-Charts > Music > Instructional
starring: Pete Sears
directed by: Music Star Productions

Release Date November 17, 2005
I only recommend this for people with good attention spans. While the teacher is an accomplished pianist with lots of information to offer, he's not very effective at keeping your interest for long periods of time. If you're looking for an upbeat, exciting DVD that will entertain you while its teaching you, don't look here.

The Complete Pepin: Techniques and Recipes

CD-Charts > Music > Instructional
starring: Jacques Pépin

Release Date January 16, 2007
This set is good if you want to learn specific techniques, but not if you want to see recipes cooked from start to finish. The few actual cooking segments are not easy to find and you spend a lot of time going back and forth to the main menu. The set is instructional, but not entertaining. If you want to be amused and instructed, try Julia & Jacques Cooking At Home
