Daily Deal – Three Maya Yoga DVDs for the Price of One
“Dynamic”, “Inspiring”, “Vinyasa”, “Rooted in Tradition”–These are but a few of the ways Maya Yoga has been described over the years. As today’s daily deal, we’re offering you the gift of a new, healthy exercise routine with this series of three Maya Yoga videos for the price of ONE.
A regular yoga practice can truly calm and quiet the mind and all its self-limiting tendencies. With Nicki Doane’s Maya Yoga Vinyasa Fusion series, the combination of Asana (yogic postures) and Pranayama (conscious breathing) along with her unique focus on alignment, philosophy, and sense of humor, you can create a sustainable lifelong yoga practice. What makes Maya Yoga’s series different from other yoga varieties is that balanced approach to core strength, the attention to detail and alignment, and the broader focus of finding a deep inner strength that supports everything we do.
Happy Yoga Month!
September is national Yoga Month, and besides all the activity we’ve been having in the office, we’ve been thinking about our health. When we have time, we have our morning yoga breaks in our conference room, led by our own in-house yoga master, Rachel Hayward. Sometimes she creates her own routines, and other times she uses some of the great DVDs we carry. When we want to really get our blood flowing she pops in Nicki Doane. When we just want to stretch and release tension, she pulls out Hillary Rubin’s Yoga Foundations. Either way, we get a great kick-start to our day.

New Maya Yoga DVDs with Nicki Doane
Hey Yoga fans — check out our new DVDs by Maya Yoga teacher Nicki Doane. Although rooted in Ashtanga, Nicki’s teaching goes beyond the traditional. Her classes combine asana, pranayama, philosophy, and poetry. The emphasis is on awareness: creating integrity within each pose that can be carried beyond the mat into daily life. Nicki and her partner Eddie have created an amazing studio on their rustic property on the north shore of Maui where they offer yoga retreats and teacher trainings throughout the year.
Nicki is frequently featured in Yoga Journal, and our resident Shaman AND yoga teacher, Rachel, was very eager to work with Nicki on a Beyond Distribution project. Rachel’s dream came true, and here with have the Maya Yoga series! Personally, I really like that the DVDs offer a choice of a 20, 30, or 45-minute practice. To me, that is my week’s yoga practice; 20 minutes on Monday night, 30 minutes on Wednesday, and finally a 45 minute practice on the weekend. Okay — so it doesn’t always work out as perfectly timed as that, but therein lies my life…
