Review
"The exclamation in the title warns you: this isn't your simple, post-surf stretching routine. In fact, get ready to bend and twist your body into poses meant for the experienced yogi.
But ultra-fit hero Tom Carroll (featured in the DVD along with Big-Wave charger Garrett McNamara and monster tube-rider Brian Conley) says it best: Yoga helps you find your center in the middle of chaos. ~ Anne Beasley-Weber" --Eastern Surf Magazine (ESM)
"This installment in the Yoga for Surfers series is the most challenging and promises to help you surf with more grace, power and ease.
Peggy Hall is joined by surfers Tom Carroll, Brian Conley and Garrett McNamara, with plenty of surf footage to keep you entertained whilst doing some of the moves.
Some of the moves are quite advanced, such as crow and scorpion, but Peggy talks you through them and you can always continue with the previous pose if you don't feel quite ready.
All the surfing is amazing, and it's refreshing to see people of different abilities practicing yoga, as it shows you don't need to be perfect to get something out of the practice. ~ Jacqueline Wild" --Surf Girl Magazine
"In difficult times I've visualized a tiny Peggy Hall standing on my shoulder feeding me positive affirmations: 'Remember to breathe through this,' and 'You can do it!',
Yoga for Surfers III is the third installment of Peggy's can-do surf-specific yoga moves and the most advanced episode so far.
Pro surfers Brian Conley, Tom Carroll and Garrett McNamara execute poses with Peggy as she keeps viewers keeping on with positive vibes like 'Drop any self-limitations and soar!'. I feel better already.
The chapters are divided into Fit, Focused and Fearless, along with a relaxation and guided meditation sequence.
There's soothing background music, non-cheesy production values and footage of Tim and Garrett towing into some big-ass waves. Look closely and you may see a tiny Peggy standing on Tom and Garrett's shoulders whispering positives as they drop the rope. ~ Bryan Dickerson" --Surf Life for Women Magazine
