Yoga for Bendy People was written for yoga teachers and practitioners who want a deeper understanding of hypermobility syndromes and how to optimize the benefits of yoga for people who have them.

A well-designed yoga practice not only avoids injury, but leaves the body better supported, the nervous system better regulated, the mind clearer, and the heart more connected to its purpose.

Author Libby Hinsley is a long-time yoga teacher, teacher trainer, and physical therapist. As a person living with Hypermobile Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome, she is passionate about raising awareness about hypermobility in the yoga community and beyond. She has experienced the chronic pain, joint instability, and yoga-related injuries so common among bendy practitioners.

In this book, she offers guidance on how to develop a sustainable yoga practice tailored to the unique needs of bendy practitioners — body, mind, and spirit.

In 2008, I traveled to Chennai, India, for a month-long yoga immersion at the Krishnamacharya Yoga Mandiram (KYM), a yoga center established by TKV Desikachar to pass on the teachings of his father Tirumalai Krishnamacharya, one of the most revered yoga masters of modern times (Krishnamacharya Yoga Mandiram). The experience was life-changing. It re-arranged everything I thought I knew about yoga and began to turn things around for my chronic injuries.

I’ve presented the book in three parts. Part One offers background information about yoga, hypermobility syndromes, and connective tissue. It also establishes a mindset for exploring the remainder of the book. In Part Two, I present key considerations for asana practice to support bendy people, including smaller and slower movements, stretching, strength and stability, and postural awareness. Part Two also offers recommendations for designing an asana practice and using verbal cues and hands-on assists wisely. Part Three considers how elements of yoga practice beyond asana, including self-massage, pranayama, relaxation, and meditation practices, can support people with hypermobility syndromes.

Readers will:
• Learn about the latest hypermobility research and most common syndromes
• Discover how to avoid the common injuries bendy people face in yoga practice
• Understand how asana, pranayama, meditation, and more, can support bendy people
