**Get rolling! Your body will ask for more.
**
Created by veteran yoga teacher Yamuna Zake, body rolling is a
revolutionary fitness technique that uses six- to ten-inch inflatable
balls to strengthen, tone, and realign the body, while providing
sensations that can surpass the bliss of a massage. Now, in the first
book devoted to body rolling, Zake shares the routines that she has
imparted to thousands of clients across the country, and shows you how
to get on the ball--and get the body you've always wanted.
The next step for fans of yoga and Pilates, body rolling is the ultimate
way to streamline your figure and promote physical wellbeing without the
bulked-up results of conventional workout methods. Like yoga and
Pilates, these easy-to-follow, fully illustrated routines will condition
and lengthen your muscles, improve core strength, and enhance posture,
flexibility, and balance. But unlike those practices, body rolling also
realigns your spine and joints, relieving pain and muscle tension and
providing a workout, a massage, and a chiropractic session all at once.
The routines can be combined for a full body workout, or abbreviated for
instant relief--to ease shoulder tightness after a long workday or to
enhance bedtime relaxation. The result: You will be not only stronger
and more fit with a long, lean shape--you'll stand taller, you'll move
more easily, and best of all, you'll feel terrific.
