Alanna Kaivalya, Ph.D, author of Myths of the Asanas and Yoga Beyond the Mat
Jory Serota has a depth and breadth of scholarship that is unparalleled and truly transformative. I've had the privilege of experiencing first hand the healing powers of the Applied Yoga method and know the book will now help anyone struggling with pain who wants more freedom and ease in their body. With Jory's guidance, the yoga practitioner receives true healing.
David Weinstock, Founder of NeuroKinetic Therapy
I first met Jory Serota in 2011 when he was practicing sports massage and doing Iyengar Yoga. Since then he has become one of my brightest students and of my most accomplished instructors. Jory has taught NeuroKinetic Therapy internationally, and is now based in Asia and teaching there. His combination of NKT and Yoga is being used by practitioners worldwide. This very in depth book shows his mastery of anatomy and biomechanics as they relate to Yoga. This book is a must read for any Yoga practitioner or instructor.
Michael J. Gelb, Author of the international bestseller, How to Think Like Leonardo da Vinci: 7 Steps to Genius Every Day
Some people are good at research. Others are skilled in practice. Some people understand advanced principles of Yoga. Others are gifted athletes. Some people understand anatomy and physiology. Others are caring, excellent healers. Jory Serota is the rare being with all of these abilities, and they shine through with radiance and power in this brilliant book.
