Ayurveda & Yoga Camera Set - French Version

For consistency and ease, we recommend using the Insta Mini 12 camera that we offer for our other books. This camera is simple to use and produces high-quality instant photographs, which will make a great addition to your challenge book. Just remember, for The Couple Yoga Book challenges, please take your pictures horizontally to best capture the full pose. The standard Insta Mini films work perfectly for this.

Please note, the Insta Mini 12 doesn't include a self-timer. You can either have someone snap the photo for you, or use your phone's timer feature. Simply set your phone on a tripod, strike your yoga pose, and capture the perfect shot!

Happy snapping!

Before you have to change the batteries of the Instax Mini 12, you can take approx. 100 instant pictures. Each film cassette contains a total of 10 instant pictures. The films are automatically ejected after each shot and take about 90 seconds to develop. In addition, the Mini 12 has an integrated film pack viewing window so that you always have an overview of the currently inserted film cassette.

The combination of the benefits of new digital technology with the charm of analogue instant cameras is definitely a special feature of the Instax Mini 12. The camera is equipped with a focal length of 60mm and an aperture of f=1: 12.7. By observing the minimum distance of 30 cm to the subject, you can avoid blurred pictures. The shutter speed of the instant camera is program controlled and goes from 1/2 s to a shutter speed of 1/4000 s. Sunny days or indoors are no challenge for the Instax Mini 12. Using the focal length, you can change the composition from your point of view and choose different sections of your subject.

Absolutely! While The Couple Yoga Book is designed with romantic couples in mind, the core essence is about building deeper connections, trust, and communication through shared physical activity. You can certainly tackle these challenges with a friend. You'll both benefit from the physical exercise and enjoy the experience of working together towards a common goal. Yoga is universal, and the joy of practicing it can be shared with anyone, regardless of the nature of the relationship.

Yes, The Couple Yoga Book presents the challenges in a progressive order, starting with beginner poses, moving onto intermediate, and finally advanced poses. This structure allows you to gradually build your strength, flexibility, and balance, making the journey more rewarding and safe. However, while this order is recommended, you are welcome to adapt the sequence to suit your comfort and skill levels. The goal is to enjoy the process and grow together, so feel free to make the experience uniquely yours!

Given the book contains 70 challenges, it would be practical to dedicate one to two days to each challenge. This allows you to fully engage with the pose, understand its intricacies, and practice it several times, while progressing through the challenges at a steady pace. Following this schedule, you would be able to complete all challenges in approximately three to five months. Please remember, it's important to listen to your bodies and move at a pace that feels comfortable and safe for both of you. The ultimate goal is to enjoy the journey and grow together, not to rush through the challenges.
