Product Description
Yoga for Scuba Divers teaches you poses, breathing exercises, visualization methods, and yoga ethics that make you a better diver. By practicing the poses you can: enhance your finning techniques and underwater stability, build core power and abdominal control to fine-tune your buoyancy, and improve your balance and strength for walks on the shore in full gear. The breathing exercises teach you to breathe steadily during physical exertion, keeping you calm under water. All the yoga poses are practiced on land. Yoga for Scuba Divers includes visualizations to prepare you mentally for upcoming dives. Athletes use visualization to enhance performance; it's powerful for divers, too. You will also learn yoga principles, such as non-violence, and how they apply to divers. Todd Stedl is a PADI Open Water Scuba Instructor. Kimberlee Jensen Stedl is a Registered Yoga Teacher and an American Council on Exercise Faculty member. Together they have been diving and doing yoga since they met in 2002.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent!, December 14, 2007
By Cheryl Ann "cleclair1020" (Coastal North Carolina) - See all my reviews
I am a yoga teacher and scuba diver and always practice yoga before diving. I have been telling my dive friends how yoga compliments diving. The authors' knowledge of both yoga and diving are excellent and they bring it all together in this book. Highly recommended!

By Kat "House of Boggs" (Brighton, ON-Canada) - See all my reviews
Knowing little to nothing about yoga or scuba diving....we read this book to learn something new and found the book to give clear, un-complicated instruction and we truly enjoyed the passion and humor of the authors.
