Yoga for Kayaking is now available on DVD

It was a pleasure to work with Anna again on a new video project. Two years ago we worked on Whitewater Kayaking with Anna Levesque, the most recent in a series of fantastic instructional DVDs from Anna. This go-round I got to reconnect with an old friend, Joe Taft, who I used to know a while back through the kayaking community. Joe was/is a talented paddler and now full-time yoga instructor, based in Asheville NC. Mary Frances Hansford, who works with Anna at Girls At Play, was also great to work with on this project. You can see her work in the graphic design of the box cover and DVD menus. All three of these individuals are good at what they do to say the least.

Purchase the DVD from one of our retail partners, or HERE, or at the Girls At Play web store.

Our video shoot occurred in the Fall of 2010 near some familiar river banks in the North Carolina mountains, while the remainder happened on the beautiful South Carolina shore.  Each outing was well spent and brought us a product that we’re all proud of.  We hope paddlers and those interested in yoga will enjoy what we have created.  (See the box cover and the DVD preview below.)

What does kayaking mean to different individuals, from the untrained beginner, to the seasoned professional? A collective of kayaking filmmakers entitled Rapid Transit, all of whom share a common goal of telling fun, exciting and engaging stories through the lens of a camera, attempt to give an answer, or perhaps just a perspective regarding this query. Along the way viewers will plunge into North Carolina’s deepest and most remote gorge, the Linville. Onlookers will meet the kayakers who first attempted the Linville Gorge descent in the 1970s, and see the reality of paddling this river over 30 years later.
