safe and effective yoga practices for older students of varying physical
abilities. This is ‘real world’ yoga, with a choice of routines and helpful
tips for adapting them to your needs. –Timothy McCall, MD, Author of Yoga as

with confidence. Not only is it ”Safe and Simple”, it is Smart. The

from any other instructional DVD on yoga in the market. As a more frail
