 good reference! November 10, 2008

i refer to this book whenever i feel stuck in my advancement on a pose; sometimes, it helps to see and understand what my muscles and joints should be ideally doing.
the chapter on breathing turned on a huge lamp-light for me, and my practice has enhanced greatly as a result.

Namaste,
This book is an excellent resource for basic anatomy. It conveys a general understanding of properly approaching foundational asanas. The layout is easy to use and reference. It has a glossary of asanas in English and Sanskrit.The drawings are superb; they were done by an artist with a medical background.
Valuable tidbits that aid in the precision of asanas are provided. If you are not already practicing theses, they make a difference maximizing the benefits of your practice. (ie. adjustments to breath, shifts to weight)
Also, when considering an injury, the illustrations are a great aid to quickly understanding how to make adjustments in asanas and practice, which poses to emphasize, avoid or modify. Om.

As a physical therapist and a yoga practicioner it was great to have all the asanas explained really well by very good drawings and muscle actions. EXCELENT book for ALL yoga practicioners and medical professionals alike to understand exactly what is involved with each and every asana.
