About the Instructor: Suzanne Deason has been practicing yoga for more than 35 years. She became interested in yoga through books and TV when she was nine years old. Soon after, she began formal yoga training in the iyengar tradition, an in-depth, alignment-oriented style that builds a strong foundation for understanding the biomechanics and purpose of each pose. Borrowing from the ashtanga tradition, she incorporates the flowing or "vinyasa" style of yoga into her precise, instructional teaching to give the student an experience of yoga by uniting the mind, body, and breath. She believes that as we move our bodies from pose to pose and breath to breath, yoga sharpens our awareness of each moment and each sensation. It is this focus that unclutters the mind and cleanses the body, leaving us with a fresh, rejuvenated soul. Suzanne has been teaching yoga for 10 years in northern California.

A trained nurse, Currie (Fabulous Shape Forever: Yoga-The Ultimate Shape System) has taught hatha yoga for more than 25 years and starred in several of her own videos. Her latest book presents a practical, accessible approach to learning and implementing yoga postures, supplemented by delightful color photos of the author demonstrating poses.

An introductory overview of the discipline of hatha yoga, precautionary hints on performing the exercises, and brief diet and meditation guidelines complement the text. While yoga books flood the market, Currie's credibility and genuine love of yoga for its own sake make her guide a solid choice for public libraries, wellness collections, or academic libraries seeking a basic treatment.
