A brief introduction to yoga and the eight limbs will be followed by alignment, breathing and then postures specifically for outdoor activities.

Activities covered will include hiking, cycling, climbing, and paddling. Specific poses and practice flows will be outlined as well as meditations, breath work and syncing with nature's rhythms. Leave no trace principles will be tied in with the foundational yoga philosophy as well as observance of our place in nature. Readers will be inspired to incorporate yoga practices into their lives on and off the trail, bike, wall, or water.

Industry Reviews

"I've never considered myself a 'yogi' but certainly depend on stretching to maintain a healthy body for my mountain pursuits. I'm used to taking bits and pieces of yoga sequences I've learned and chaining them together to take care of myself after long days hiking, hunting, climbing and backpacking. Jana's book is a brilliant solution for those of us who need yoga for the exact purpose of supporting ourselves in the outdoors without the advanced nature of studio yoga. I love how she's catered her sequences for precisely how I'm using my body. Its practical, doable, and a really fun way to rediscover how yoga can be a functional part of my outdoor life."

--Lindsay B. Davis, VP Outdoor Recreation Roundtable


"If you love yoga and the outdoors, please do yourself a favor and get yourself a copy of this book. In fact, get it for everyone you know ! The beautiful images, combined with the easy to follow instructions makes this the ideal coffee table book. This book pulls information from some of the most knowledgeable Yogi's that I have studied under and will be a book I reference as I find inspiration for my own classes. Please treat yourself to this wealth of knowledge!"

--Haliey Lott, co-host of Mind Games Podcast with Ronnie Lott


"This is such a gorgeous book! It's not surprising that the sequence of the book flows as beautifully as the yoga sequences within it. The overview of foundations, breath work, alignment and asana are great for anyone, whether you're an outdoor adventurer or not. The individual guides are definitely the gems of this book, though! The sequencing of pre-, mid-, and post-adventure are great. They are super easy to follow and bookmarkable with both a list of the poses and a visual for each one. The book is incredibly well thought out and beautifully executed!" --Dr. Shauna Harrison
