Practice this unique form of yoga where you and your partner work together to accomplish creative and challenging poses. Your partner can be your friend, roommate, spouse, life partner, sibling, parent, child, or anyone else whose company you enjoy.
In Yoga with a Friend you will learn breathing techniques to facilitate tranquility together, and partner poses that develop trust and mutual support. You will develop strong non-verbal communication skills as you work together to achieve balance. You will amaze yourselves as you accomplish the poses.
Along with poses and breathing techniques, you will learn some great visualizations and meditation techniques. You will also be introduced to yoga philosophy and understand how to apply yoga lifestyle guidelines to your various relationships. In Yoga with a Friend we hope to share this fun, challenging, and deeply rewarding practice with you.

About the
authors
Kimberlee Jensen Stedl is a member of the American Council on Exercise Continuing Education Faculty, an AFAA-certified Group Fitness Instructor and is a Registered Yoga Teacher with the Yoga Alliance. She has taught fitness classes since 1992. She specializes in a flowing yoga style called vinyasa and has practiced a variety of yoga styles since 1997.
Todd Stedl is a PADI Open Water Scuba Instructor, holds a doctorate in chemistry, and has been a professional writer since 2000. Todd began his yoga journey after meeting Kimberlee in 2002. As Kimberlee went through her yoga teacher-training program, Todd became her practice student, and he provided tremendous feedback which helped her become a better teacher. He discovered that yoga went beyond the stereotypes he had envisioned it to be, and began incorporating aspects of yoga into his daily life.
Kimberlee and Todd discovered partner yoga in 2003 and have thoroughly enjoyed creating new poses. They have used the teachings of yoga as a framework to help them construct their growth as both husband and wife and as individuals.
