Great Book December 23, 2008
I have been learning alot from some videos that I have, but always like having a good book or two to refer to from time-to-time.
Peggy hits this one perfectly in presenting yoga poses and how to do them in an easy to understand and approachable manner.
Picking up this book is one way to help you do yoga if you thought you never could.
Enjoy.
 Easy to understand December 6, 2008
The book is easy to read and the pictures are clear. I was pleased to see the "normal" people doing the poses. Yoga for the Rest of Us - Back Care Basics

Peggy Cappy Understands the Needs of All Ages and Abilities! October 7, 2006
23 out of 23 found this review helpful
I had the pleasure of meeting Peggy Cappy at a women's yoga retreat a few years ago. I wish there were many more teachers like Peggy who understand the needs of people of all ages. Peggy's students range in age from forty to one-hundred. It is refreshing to open her new book and see examples of her students demonstrating that yoga is, indeed, possible for all of us. She makes it clear that you are never "too old", "too over-weight" or "too out of shape" to do yoga. On the contrary--YOU are the very person who can benefit from yoga the most!
Peggy Cappy's safe and gentle approach allows any one of any age and ability to reap yoga's practical benefits in daily life. She presents easier versions of poses for those with physical limitations in a way that builds confidence and encourages you to practice on your own. Thank you Peggy for sharing your love of yoga with all of us!

Yoga for all of Us September 15, 2006
18 out of 18 found this review helpful
I found Peggy's book to be very reader friendly. Her instructions were clear and the photos were very helpful. One could pick up this book, follow along and feel successful. She wrote a book for "all the rest of us" who perhaps feel that yoga is only for someone else. You can read this book and know that yoga is for you too! She invites you to try it out and see for yourself.
