sean Posted July 13, 2005 Scott Sonnon just released a new 2 DVD set called Prasara ... A synergistic physical practice which at first glance can appear to incorporate aspects of yoga, martial arts, acrobatics, break-dance & gymnastics. Looks very promising, I'm definitely going to grab this on pay day. Check out the trailer and you can check out more details and order it here. [Yes this is an affiliate link, don't shoot!

sean Posted July 15, 2005 thaT looks pretty damn good.... i just cant get to the order here link.... is clubbells down? i just got warrior wellness and am digging it.... do you know of any of his stuff that focuses on fascia/connective tissues? im sure it all does but maybe theres a dvd working with specifically these tissues.... like tai chi. 5375[/snapback] Yeah, the site went down earlier today for a few hours. I think for what you are looking for, your best bet is to start with Warrior Wellness and then once you are comfortable with WW advanced move on to Freedom by Degree. Some long time Tai Chi guys on the CST forum talk about how much of the benefits can be found from Warrior Wellness and without the years of learning an intricate form. I can't wait to check out this Prasara. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sean Posted August 30, 2005 Prasara promotion ends Wednesday (August 31st). Not sure how much it will go up afterwards, but I just placed my order now. I also picked up Ana Forrest's The Pleasure of Strength which is hard as hell but also very very good. Ana really breaks down the poses in exquisite detail and clearly has a deep understanding of biomechanics. I also grabbed Yoga Shakti which is the most beautifully produced Yoga video I've ever seen. What's more is that it has this really cool "Matrix" feature where you can design your own practice from I think like 30 pieces into nearly endless combinations so every time you approach it can be a fresh sequence. Another cool feature of the Yoga Shakti DVD is that you can turn voice over instruction off and just have the music, which is cool because it's kind of annoying after you've seen a sequence like 500 times and you are listening to the same instructions over and over and over again.

Yoda Posted September 2, 2005 It looks amazing, but over my ability level. I'm digging the warrior wellness as I can do the exercises. They make me feel flexible. When I do yoga, I feel inflexible. Looks enticing, though. I look forward to the reviews. Sean, you have been a yoga nut in the past--I'd like to read some article type posts from you to explain what Scott brings to the table. Thanks, Yoda Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GrandTrinity Posted September 2, 2005 shit, I have mad desire to see this but at the same time I dont want to drop another 50 beans because I already have so much to practice while I still want to bum it off some1 and learn some NEW universal skills, anyone?

Cameron Posted September 2, 2005 I was on the verge of ordering it yesterday but didn't. I am getting back into BJJ and doing CC and that is probably enough for now. Besides, I still have the Body flow videos sitting on my TV that I havent even gotten into yet .I honestly don't know that I will either I have sort of made an effort to getting into Scott's stuff but think it may be something for down the road. For now, Matt Furey and Dragondoor stuff is what I prefer. Prasara looks pretty advanced also. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
