 Useful for adults June 3, 2008

I liked this better than most "adult" books on Yoga. Definitely work a look for adults new to Yoga as well as girls.

Perfect for girls ... and their moms! April 13, 2005
3 out of 3 found this review helpful
I LOVE this book! The language is spot-on for girls--there's no "dumbing down" here, yet the core teachings of yoga aren't glossed over either. The package is tons of fun, with amazing, colourful illustrations of real girls and easy-to-follow instructions for each yoga pose. I highly recommend it--especially for girls who might want to begin a yoga practice but aren't sure they want to take a class with a "bunch of women." If you're a mom with a preteen / teenage daughter, it's a great way to learn about yoga together.
