Customer Reviews

Tony Sanchez is my hero!
I am a Kundalini Yoga teacher but also a big fan of all yoga esp. the Bikram sequence and challenge of it.
However I find the Bikram teachers dogmatic, teaching as if of one size fits all, pushing us harder, (over achievers can get hurt going too far) and that Bikram's Way is The Only Way. I've been injured several times in my attempt to believe Bikram teachers know what they are doing.
I have to say.. No, they dont... its great stuff but the teachers I have had were not safe.

I found Tony Sanchez years ago.
Tony was Bikram's top student and senior teacher. I was thrilled to find
Sanchez offered video instruction for all levels and wisdom for each level. Now he has a book too.
Excellent form and instruction. He's been my hero for years and I am happy to tell any hot yoga fan.. Sanchez is an impeccable master... 10 times greater than his teacher!! (as all teachers claim they want for their students.)
His book is wise, good yoga, compassionate for limitations, and has some very human advice for teachers.
The book is a gift... and the price is fabulous.
Hot yoga is taking off in lots of directions these days...
But this sequence AS IS is brilliant and worth sticking with and growing with.
One thing about Sanchez... (i have to mention his videos . he goes beyond the beginner class which is great... Bikram fans may never get to see anything but the beginners series...Tony will show you what it looks like and you can join when you are ready)

Thank You Tony Sanchez....
