Learn more about Ultimate Body Rolling Workout by Y. Zake | Tone, Lengthen, Realign
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.

About the Author:
Got the Girl Scouts’ Writer badge (the only one that interested me) when I was 12: that signaled the future. I began writing fiction, but discovered that what really compelled me was literary nonfiction–especially once I developed a way to use a powerful image as a method of analysis.
An image constrains and focuses thoughts while allowing you to come at your material from many different directions without losing coherence, since the analysis acquires its form from the structure of the image.
I used this method for both my literary nonfiction books:
For *The Women Outside,* a study of homeless and marginal women, it was the figure of the witch.
For *Slaying the Mermaid,* about women and self-sacrifice, it was Hans Christian Anderson’s Little Mermaid.
Literary nonfiction didn’t pay the rent, but I like writing books, so I became a book collaborator and wrote other books with experts. (For a series of articles on how book collaboration works, see my website: http://www.stephaniegolden.net.)
And since for a freelancer diversifying = security, I started writing all sorts of other things: magazine articles, newsletters, reports for nonprofits, grant proposals, training manuals, and websites.
People always ask: “How do you have the discipline to get anything done when you work on your own?” It’s simple, I tell them: when your income depends on it, you’re motivated. Besides, I like it. Writing is a pleasurable activity, even when it’s really difficult.
