Letter from Suza

Dear Yoga Students,

I recently completed my fourth book on yoga for older people - myself included! As you may know, my interest in yoga began many years ago while I was a home health-care provider for convalescents and the elderly. I have taught yoga since 1972 and there are now in print over 100,000 copies of my books on yoga for people at midlife and older. BKS Iyengar wrote the Foreword to my second book, The New Yoga for People Over 50. These books are available in several languages, including English, German, Russian and Portuguese and are recommended as resources by teachers around the world.

The New Yoga for Healthy Aging: Living Longer, Living Stronger and Loving Every Day will explore selected topics from my previous volumes in much greater depth. The lead photographer is Jim Jacobs, based in Berkeley, California. Jim is a longtime student of Iyengar Yoga with a special interest in photographing older yoga practitioners.

Namaste,
Suza Francina
