I wanted to get a Christmas present for a good friend of mine who has been coming to my yoga classes for over a year now and I wanted something to do with yoga, but not on a really deep level that might freak him out.

I remembered this book that I heard about somewhere called, “Real Men Do Yoga”, by John Capouya.

I thought, humm let me check that out. So I headed to the local bookstore so that I could get my hands on it and I loved it. Simple, easy to read, not too basic, but not too crazy hard either. It is a book written about yoga for real men! Men who work and travel a lot, men that have kids, men that participate in a variety of other athletic activities, Golf, Football, Tennis, Basketball, Weight Training, etc. There are tons of stories inside it from real live men (mostly more famous athletes – like Eddie George, etc.). I was impressed when I looked it up on Amazon.com to preview it before buying and it received 4.5/5 stars. Wow! I was impressed.

So if you are still looking for a Christmas gift for a friend or even a loved one that you wished would “GET” the whole yoga thing, this might just do the trick.
