“In Intelligent Yoga, Peter Blackaby describes his humanistic approach to yoga, firmly rooted in the here and now and underpinned by scientific research. Rather than approaching yoga as an exercise system, it is seen here as a tool for self-exploration.” Working with Casita Press, I designed and art-directed the second edition of the book. Illustrations and photographs were sourced and commissioned from third parties. The book is available to buy from Amazon.

One of the comments most often made is ‘what a beautiful book’, a testament to his skill. Apart from that Sam is a wonderful person to work with, with an easy manner, high standards of work and most importantly for me very reliable, overall highly recommended.
