"At thirty years old, I have been teaching yoga for a third of my life. In my corner of the world, it's almost like a clique. Everyone knows who's who, and what's more menacing is that everybody seems to know each other's business. Of course, there are pluses and minuses, but for the most part, it feels more like a popularity contest than a viable career."
"It's about love, lies, and betrayal,"
"I just thought it was fun and different because it's the yoga space, "It's behind the scenes.""
Kandi Neal, a longtime yoga teacher, self-published Behind the Studio Doors, a debut murder-mystery set inside a yoga studio. The novel centers on Trina, a lead character based on Neal and a studio-owner friend, who confronts quirky studio drama, forbidden romance, spiritual scammers, and murder. The narrative illuminates complicated relationship dynamics and the unspoken realities of wellness culture. The story exposes messy, relatable human experiences beneath a serene façade while drawing on Neal's decade-plus teaching background and longstanding interest in thrillers to shape characters and suspense.
