Babies and toddlers are wonderful examples of the miracle of the human body and it’s capabilities…. or at least, what it might have been capable of once upon a time!

When learning how to crawl, they will arch their torsos up into “Cobra”.  And just before they can walk, they will spend weeks crossing rooms in “Down Dog”.  Even while sleeping, they will unconsciously tuck into the aptly named “Baby Pose”.

As a photographer myself, I can’t imagine the time and patience that went into each and every image… babies aren’t known for doing what their told, after all.

Noticing that a baby naturally performs Yoga is one thing; getting these poses to occur in front of a camera is another story. The photographs that compose this book are captured moments, natural and candid fractions of a second where the lighting, expression and pose all come together. For most of the images, these poses and moves were completely spontaneous, the only staged elements being the placement of the baby or child and yoga mat in the proper light.

It doesn’t get much cuter than this!!  Between the wonderfully fun and engaging images and the inspirational text, Born Yogis is the perfect addition to any yoga family’s library.

The beautiful woman, often balancing precariously on a rock overlooking the sea. Known as much for her long, black hair and flowers strewn about her head, as for her peaceful, picturesque locales.
