Special Notice – Yoga for the Blind
Get Healthy With Yoga
Beginning Yoga for the Blind and Visually Impaired is a dynamic, inspiring five CD set produced by Gretchen Hein, a certified Kripalu yoga instructor and Marty Klein, a blind author and workshop facilitator. The goal of the series is to
Help blind and visually impaired folks use yoga to reclaim and sustain strong, flexible bodies as well as help encourage students to find a yoga class in their local communities that will be suitable for them.
The packaging has bold, dark lettering with a contrasting background so folks with low vision can read it. Each CD is numbered with bold markings as well. Gretchen’s descriptions of yoga postures are detailed and focused specifically for blind students while Marty’s comments and insights as a blind man make for an informative and enjoyable learning experience. Each CD has many different tracks to make future programming possible by combining different yoga postures. There are specific tracks on CD #5 to inform prospective yoga teachers how to be thoughtful toward a blind student. Students are encouraged to give this CD to a teacher for their listening before joining a local class.
The cost of the five CD package is $39.95 plus shipping and handling. You can order the set at www.blindyoga.net.
