Hot nude Yoga Hawaii DVD reviews – Aaron Star’s body-positive Yoga for men

Okay, so full confession: when I first heard about Aaron Star’s Hot Nude Yoga Hawaii DVD set, I was expecting… well, softcore erotica with a side of yoga. But what I got was something much more grounded, more human — and honestly, a little beautiful.

I didn’t attend the retreat in person (though now I kinda wish I had), but I did watch the entire four-DVD box set over the course of a week. Alone. In my apartment. With curiosity… and maybe a little side-eye at first.

A nude Yoga DVD that’s actually about the Yoga

Aaron Star — the New York-based yogi who pioneered nude yoga for gay men in Chelsea — isn’t new to stirring things up. But this isn’t just some attention-grabbing stunt. Hot Nude Yoga Hawaii leans heavily into connection — to the body, to nature, and to self-acceptance.

Once you get past the obvious (yes, everyone’s naked), what stands out most is the instruction. It’s slow, clear, and focused. After about ten minutes, I realized I wasn’t thinking about the nudity anymore. I was following along. Breathing. Stretching. And kind of… feeling stuff?

The Breakdown: What’s Inside the Box Set

There are four DVDs in total, each with a very specific vibe:

• Energizing Morning Flow: Think soft sunrises, black sand beaches, and gentle heat. It’s surprisingly challenging — and beautifully filmed.
  
  
• Afternoon Grounding Practice: Slower, restorative, with deep breathing cues. I actually nodded off the first time (in a good way).
  
  
• Partner Practice: This one felt the most “intimate,” but not in a sexual way. It’s sensual, yes, but more about trust, presence, and body language.
  
  
• Retreat Documentary: Interviews with participants. Real talk. Vulnerability. Honestly, my favorite part.
  
  

It doesn’t shy away from emotion, either. Some of the men interviewed talk about body image, trauma, aging, and the weird liberation of just being naked without the pressure to be sexy.

“The beach didn’t care what I looked like. Neither did anyone else,” one participant says. That line stuck with me.

Representation: real bodies, real practice

Unlike many men’s yoga DVDs, this one isn’t a lineup of perfect abs and impossible poses. You’ll see men of all ages, sizes, and levels — and thank god for that. It reminded me that yoga isn’t about being bendy. It’s about being present.

I mean, sure, I can’t hold crow pose for more than four seconds, and my warrior two looks more like a confused scarecrow.

But watching these men move with grace and wobble a little? That was more encouraging than any Instagram-perfect fitness video.

Honest thoughts: was it weird? yeah. but also… freeing

There were moments when I laughed. Like, “Okay, that’s a little too much eye contact for me right now” kind of moments. But there were also moments I felt calm. Grounded. Even proud.

At one point, I caught myself thinking: “I wish I could do this in real life — no mirrors, no judgment, no clothing, just breath.”

Would I recommend it?

Yes. But not to everyone.

If the idea of a naked yoga DVD makes you uncomfortable — like, really uncomfortable — then skip it. But if you’re even a little curious? If you’ve ever looked in the mirror and winced, or felt disconnected from your body? This might be worth a try.

It’s not about perfection. It’s about permission.
