This is 
Your Story

Welcome to The Practice Beyond the Posture—a book that invites you to step deeper into your yoga journey and into yourself. Rooted in the structure of original hot yoga 26 and 2, this work reveals the mental dialogue that rises in each posture; not just as a challenge, but as an opportunity. It’s more than a book about yoga; it’s a mirror for your thoughts, your habits, your willpower.

 

As you move through the pages, you’ll begin to recognize the patterns that hold you back and the strength that’s always been within you. This is a book about meeting discomfort without flinching, about staying when the mind wants to run and keeping your priorities straight. By the end, you won’t just have practiced yoga—you’ll have practiced being fully, authentically you.

Student Reviews

"Beyond being an outstanding manual for hot yoga postures, this book delves deep into the inner mind of yoga, offering profound insights and holistic understanding. With its wisdom and guidance, it promises to transform your practice and perspective. Lock your knees, and remember to breathe."

- Dr. Albert Hunt

"As a yogi, clinical psychologist, and fellow traveler on the path of self-inquiry, I found this manuscript to be a soulful, wise, and deeply human exploration of the internal world we navigate on the mat. It weaves together the physical, mental, and emotional aspects of Original Hot Yoga in a way that feels both personal and universally relatable, like sharing reflections with a thoughtful friend after class.

Rather than telling you how practice should look, it invites you to listen inward, question old patterns, and meet yourself with breath as your anchor. Insightful, warm, and often humorous, this book serves as both a mirror and a companion for anyone exploring the connection between movement, mind, and growth."

- Laura Russell, PsyD, Yogi Student, Psychologist, Friend.

"Using the familiar arch of the 26 and 2 series, Practice Beyond the Posture gifts the yogi of all skill levels a playful roadmap for the lifelong pursuit of paying better attention. Through harnessing attention, Coskun encourages the reader to explore their own mind and its mental focus on the present moment, as well as their body and its signals.

 

Questions posed throughout the book ask readers to self-reflect, and offer even to the seasoned yogi many unavoidable checkpoints. By the time readers have reached the final breathing exercise everyone will have seriously taken stock of what assumptions - about both their identity and their body’s limits - have hindered them from deepening their practice.

- Michelle May-Curry, Ph.D
