Lifelong athlete and sport enthusiast Dane Vemb loves nothing better than finding the back of the net with a puck or pounding over hills on his mountain bike, but one day, he wanders into a Bikram yoga studio. By the time he leaves the hot room, sweat soaked and inspired, he's completely hooked and determined to master this new "sport." Unlike most aspiring yogis, though, Dane's not averse to a can of Red Bull or a puff of weed to enhance his spiritual and physical endeavours. Now and then, he even goes off to Peru on a quest to explore the visionary properties of ayahuasca. Early in his dedicated at-home and in-studio yoga practice, Dane comes to realize his 26 posture sequence has plateaued and sets out on a pursuit for answers to better depth in each of the postures. After a decade, he is given the intel from a 'yoga whisperer,' and with the same energy he uses to hustle his way down the ice playing hockey, Dane develops a balanced and much-improved practice. In this hilarious and insightful part memoir/ part-yoga manual, he wittily chronicles his physical and emotional journey into thriving rather than merely surviving. In a series of beautiful photos of his daughter Stephanie demonstrating yin postures and before-and-after shots of Dane measuring the gains in his own practice, readers are provided with a practical, step-by-step guide to a better yoga practice. But more importantly, they are gifted a blueprint for a happier, more creative, and fulfilled life. And they'll be laughing every step of the way.
