FAQ

A: YOGIS GAME is a trilogy family card game. It was created to be played in order, increasing in difficulty with one being the easiest and 3three being the hardest. Here's a breakdown of each version:

1. YOGIS GAME Nature Deck (YG1) is the first version. YG1 is the simplest and most creative deck, enjoyable to even the youngest players. Cards in this deck allow the players to mimic nature in their way. Cards in this deck have names of actual Yoga poses but players need not perform them that way, yet anyway, they feel to match the card physically.

2. YOGIS GAME Pose Builder Deck (YG2) is the second version. YG2 adds guidance, limitations, and challenges to the mix. Cards in this deck require players to add to their unique pose.

3. YOGIS GAME Yoga Pose Deck (YG3) is the third version. YG3 shares specific Yoga poses that the players mimic. Cards in this deck have pictures of me sharing 54 specific Yoga poses. These poses range from simple to complex.

4. YOGIS GAME All-In-One (YG1, YG2, & YG3) is the latest version which includes all 3 YG versions in one box!

A: Yes! This trilogy card game was designed to be able to play any of the decks alone, as a pair, and as a trio. For Dual and trio deck play, you can shuffle and combine all of the cards or have 2-3 different stacks to play 2-3 cards in a single turn, combing all cards played into 1 unique pose! If you are unsure which version to get, try YOGIS GAME All-In-One, which includes all three versions!

A: Yoga cannot be won. Yoga is not a contest or a game. YOGIS GAME is truly a tool. YG exists to spread yoga and get families to move their bodies and think creatively. Often, Yoga, as our modern culture knows is something we do and learn in a classroom, gym, park, or studio setting. Modern Yoga classes can be inaccessible to many people due to lack of time, expense, location, and even anxiety. I wanted to make something that I could teach through and share more easily with the world while I am not there, and without a constant fee and or membership. A book, sure, in time, but something that can be played has a different place in our hearts. With 12 years of experience teaching Kids Yoga, I found that kids are more likely to participate in physical activity if they are playing a game, thus, I thought up YOGIS GAME (read more on YG's About page)! There are many different styles of Yoga, yet they all have the same goal, Self-Awareness. I hope that YG sparks your curiosity into learning more about Yoga, encouraging you to have a higher value on moving, stretching, breathing, and relaxing daily!

A: The Hatha Yoga Pradipika states there is 48 lakh (Sanskrit for 100,000) poses, meaning there are 4.8 million potential poses! Yoga poses are limitless and ever-changing. Think, even if you do the same pose daily, it is different and new each time. You are breathing new air that you will never breathe again. Your hairs are growing and changing right now, you are always changing, breath to breath, this heightened awareness and realization is the essence of Yoga (Self-Realization). Each slight variation of your hand, foot, or any other subtle change to a pose is technically a new one, each unique in the present moment. Play the game in this way, be creative, and expand your imagination!

A: There are many names for the same poses in Yoga, therefore, I have chosen the names that are the most descriptive and easy to remember and teach. If you would like to add or change a name, use a marker on the desired card. Currently, YG3 is in English only.

A: For simplicity and accessibility, YG3 is printed in English. The purpose of this deck is to teach actual poses and therefore the names are less important than the actual positions. This deck is meant to be played simply and easily while also helping younger children to practice reading.

A: Yes! YOGIS GAME (YG3), Yoga Pose Deck has 54 cards with actual Yoga poses on them! It is published and ready to play, order your copy of YG3 here!

A: YOGI SENSE is my free online resource website. The TEXTS page has links to free online Yoga books, and the CLASSES page provides specifics on what Hatha and Raja Yoga POSES and classes look like.
