PRASARA YOGA: Flow Beyond Thought
I have been training with Coach Sonnon many years now and saw first hand the evolution and development of Prasara Yoga. I was the first person to be certified as a Prasara Yoga instructor and the first person to hold weekly classes in this incredible art that I have grown to love. I am quite simply and honestly blown away by the book! The text is incredibly inspired and easy to understand. The pictures are clear and very easy to follow. In general I have never liked books on movement, because I have a tough time seeing movement on the page, but this book is so easy to understand. I cannot recommend this book enough. This is truly a beautiful book. I hope you enjoy. --Joseph Wilson, PhD, RMAX Faculty Head CoachIn fifty years of yoga practice, I've watched the evolution of this physical and mental discipline from Hittleman to Iyengar to Ashtanga. Coach Sonnon's PRASARA YOGA is the next logical step, and a master-level thesis on the unity of motion and calm. Yogis: the 21st Century has arrived, and I sincerely believe that Patangali would have heartily approved. --Steven Barnes, Author, Lecturer, Success CoachPrasara Yoga: Flow Beyond thought, is truly a book that stands head and shoulders above other books on yoga. I've been practicing hatha yoga for 27 years, and have been teaching it for more than 10 years, and this book blew me away. What Scott Sonnon has accomplished with this book is truly unique. The practice of Prasara Yoga is one that is fresh and highly innovative, yet at the same time, it's rooted in the ancient history of Yoga philosophy and practice. In this landmark book, Scott Sonnon,the Flow Coach, discusses in detail, how the adoption of a physical practice like Prasara Yoga, can have profound impact on all levels of a human being. He speaks about these benefits to the soul, mind, and body in a language that is easily understood by westerners, and he refers back to the original teachings of Patanjali's Yoga Sutras, to show how these methods relate to the past. In doing so, Scott Sonnon has forged a path into the future that will ensure Yoga's place in an ever-changing and evolving world. The book ends with a complete description and demonstration of the first five flows of Prasara Yoga. I have had the honor of being able to teach these Prasara Flows to my private students, group classes, and as a credited course at a college, and the results have been amazing! The ways that this form of Yoga can change a person are too numerous to mention. I STRONGLY recommend this book to anyone who is interested in deepening their yoga practice as well as to anyone who wants to get more out of life. --Geoff Dixon, Certified CST Coach
