Secrets of the Red Carpet: Yoga ! Take It to the Advanced Level with Travis Eliot’s “The Ultimate Yogi’ DVDs

DateJanuary 14, 2012 | AuthorAuthor 

While prepping for the red carpet, celebrities are making sure they are getting their beauty treatments in place but if anything that’s happening on a very regular basis, it’s fitness and workouts. Particularly after the holidays, who doesn’t want to look great? We all want to look better and more fit! While some use private trainers or go to gyms, other celebrities incorporate specialty exercise classes into their lifestyle on a regular basis and thus only have to ramp up for awards season by adding in an extra class or two.

 

One of those specialty exercise routines is Yoga. While there are many workouts for beginners in yoga, finding a great workout for the advanced yoga practitioner is not particularly easy– because you want workouts coming from different aspects.

If you have watched these videos, and gone to the youtube.com page for the Ultimate Yogi videos and watched all of those– and feel inspired, then I suggest you invest in yourself, your body, your mind, your personal strength and your spiritual being– and go the distance of the 108 day journey with Travis Eliot. It would be one of the most powerful events in your life. It will empower you.

How do I know this? I tweeted about Travis Eliot and one of his students not only retweeted my tweet, but also contacted me directly to tell me how inspiring and empowering his yoga teachings were and how much of a change it had wrought in him. That was a total stranger sharing his life experience within a social media “forum” that I asked for more information and commentary and he shared it willingly. That shows me (realize I have interviewed over 100 fitness pros, reviewed over 225 video & DVD workouts) that this is a special kind of workout and an especially unique presentation. Not for those who haven’t done a lot of Yoga classes though. This is the ultimate because it is for the more advanced person seeking a challenge.
Are you up for a challenge? I think if you have gotten this far, you are.

THE ULTIMATE YOGI: MAKING IT HAPPEN
Yoga instructor Travis Eliot conceptualized The Ultimate Yogi 108 Day Program after teaching thousands of people from all walks of life. After noticing a small niche in the health and wellness community, Travis created a fresh, cinematic, and accessible yoga program available to a diverse audience. The Ultimate Yogi has been hailed as the most comprehensive yoga program available to date.

“Travis has created something both universal and powerful that is accessible to everyone.”
-Yariv Lerner, Founder Udaya Entertainment

The program was birthed into existence when Travis Eliot and movie producer Yariv Lerner came together to manifest the concept of The Ultimate Yogi. Mr. Lerner and his company Udaya Entertainment provided access to a vast array of cinematic assets and brought production quality to the video unlike any the yoga world has ever seen. Yariv, one of Travis’ students, initially partnered with Travis to create the Udaya Retreat Sanctuary in Malibu, California and within the span of a few months the retreat center became a tremendous success. That success led to the creation of Udaya Entertainment and The Ultimate Yogi 12 disc DVD series.

Filmed in Sofia, Bulgaria at Nu Boyana Film Studios in association with Millennium Films, The Ultimate Yogi was shot on three Red Cameras with a crew of 45 professionals. Utilizing the directorial vision of Jason Reim and the incredible skills of director of photography Anton Ognianov, The Ultimate Yogi will inspire students not just through Travis Eliot’s unique sequencing but with its cinematic quality and stunningly beautiful settings.

THE ULTIMATE YOGI: AN UDAYA ENTERTAINMENT PRODUCTION
Making its international debut into the world of Health and Home Fitness with The Ultimate Yogi, Udaya Entertainment is quickly becoming a force to be reckoned with. The company is backed by cinema industry giants Nu Boyana Film Studios and Millennium Films and already has two follow-up titles including Yoga Short & Sweet and Yoga Fundamentals to be released in early 2012.

With a vast array of cinematic resources at its disposal Udaya is continuing to build its momentum by supplying its following with a constant stream of new content and innovative online engagement designs. The company is branching into new media to reach its audience on every level.

“Its an evolving market (home fitness) and my partners and I like where its going, The Ultimate Yogi is just the beginning.” -Yariv Lerner, Founder.
