A holistic method for practicing hot yoga--a new 40-pose series of postures based on modern understandings of anatomy and movement.

Bringing hot yoga beyond Bikram and into the 21st century, Beyond Hot Yoga offers a bold new science-backed 40-pose sequence. Built on up-to-date insights on bodily movement--and the understanding that all bodies are different--author, practitioner, and teacher Kyle Ferguson challenges the long-held belief that all yoga poses are right for all people. He also opens up a vital conversation regarding the principles of embodiment and interconnectedness in yoga, doing so with humor, erudition, and tongue-in-cheek wit.

More than just a practice guide, Beyond Hot Yoga is a shake-it-up investigation of ideas- it encourages a new exploration of the social nature of human beings, emphasizes the harmony between physical design and mental process, and explores the philosophy of embodiment and the spiritual value of practice. Included are quarantine-tailored adjustments for reaping the benefits of the hot yoga sequence for when you can't get to a class, as well as tips on alignment, postures, and learning to read and listen to your body as you practice yoga.

Reviews for Beyond Hot Yoga: On Patterns, Practice, and Movement

After six years of Bikram yoga, my practice had hit a plateau. Kyle's Foundations classes made a big difference! I started noticing that I was standing, walking, feeling, and thinking differently. I find myself more deeply in tune with my body and mind in my everyday life. --Chris Landry, Foundations Yoga student Having two babies changed my body dramatically. [Kyle's] Foundations method of yoga has done more to correct my alignment and rebuild my strength than any targeted exercises I've done. It is the most sustainable and rewarding work to do. --Ruth Hill, Foundations Yoga student I have been a committed yogi since developing chronic hip and back issues twenty years ago. Within a few months of practice with Kyle, the chronic pain went away entirely and I found new joy in movement. I have met many yoga teachers over the years. Kyle has a gift that sets him apart. --Robert Luce, Bikram and Foundations Yoga teacher
