Fitness DVD leader, Gaiam, picked up 12 Telly Awards for quality and innovation in this year's Telly Awards competition, which honors excellence in local, regional and cable TV commercials and non-broadcast video and TV programs. The Tellys are among the most sought-after media awards, with entries coming from five continents and all 50 U.S. states. All Telly judges are past winners of the Silver Telly and are top industry professionals.

In the "How to Instructional" category, a Silver Telly, the highest honor, was given to Gaiam's "Qigong Beginning Practice" and Bronze Tellys were bestowed upon top seller "Budokon Beginning Practice with Cameron Shayne," "Vinyasa Flow Yoga II with Seane Corn," "Lower Body Yoga for Beginners with Suzanne Deason," "Postnatal Yoga with Shiva Rea," "Yoga for Flexibility with Patricia Walden," and "Trampoline Training Workout with Jonathan Roche."

Several Gaiam DVDs that won Bronze Telly Awards feature acclaimed yogi, Rodney Yee; "Power Yoga: Strength," "Power Yoga: Stamina," "Power Yoga: Flexibility," "Intermediate Yoga," and "Yoga for Back Care."

"Qigong Beginning Practice" is part of the new Gaiam Eastern Practice Series, which also includes T'ai Chi DVDs and kits and the innovative Budokon martial arts-yoga synergy series by Cameron Shayne. "Qigong Beginning Practice" features world-renowned Qigong experts Daisy and Francesco Garripoli, who were part of a public television documentary that revealed scientific evidence of Qigong's healing powers and its ability to relieve and prevent illness.

"Gaiam has made it a goal to create a variety of programs to appeal to different people and to keep fitness fresh and interesting," said Howard Ronder, vice president of marketing for Gaiam. "We are very pleased that we've been able to maintain the quality and integrity of our programs as we venture into new areas of fitness DVD production."
