See inside every yoga pose! With clear, expert instruction and full-color, detailed anatomical drawings, Yoga Anatomy depicts the most common asanas to provide a deeper understanding of the structures and principles underlying each movement and of yoga itself.
From breathing to standing poses, see how each muscle is used, how slight alterations of a pose can enhance or reduce effectiveness, and how the spine, breathing, and body position are all fundamentally linked.
Whether you are just beginning your journey or have been practicing yoga for years, Yoga Anatomy will be an invaluable resource--one that allows you to see each movement in an entirely new light.
Author Leslie Kaminoff is a recognized expert and teacher in anatomy, breathing, and bodywork. He is the founder of The Breathing Project, New York City's premiere yoga studio dedicated to the teaching of individualized, breath-centered yoga practice and therapy.
Wonderful Book
| Customer Rating: | This book is absolutely wonderful in its presentation of what is going on inside your body when doing yoga.
Though it is somewhat technical in some aspects, it is well worth your time to go through it and learn what is happening even if it is not clear the first time you read or look at it, though for the most part for me that was the exception rather than the rule.
If you practice yoga or are interested in anatomy in general, no matter what level of experience or knowledge you have in either subject, this is a very enjoyable and educational experience.
Highly recommended. |
Excellent graphs and explanations!
| Customer Rating: | | This is a book I've been looking for to understand how muscles work on a yoga session. A must for all yoga practitioners who want to know how the asanas work. |
Excellent learning tool!
| Customer Rating: | | This book is an excellent learning/reference tool...the illustrations are clear, the wording is concise (not too scientific) and each pose is listed in English and Sanskrit (including the phonetic spelling) - it's a must have! |
It helps to be familiar with anatomical terminology
| Customer Rating:  | I just started studying yoga to better round out my workout routine. I picked up this book as something to help me better understand how to perform the asanas.
Pros: Well drawn anatomical drawings, clear descriptions of how the muscles work to enable you to perform the asanas
Cons: Requires some knowledge of anatomy (I have had anatomy classes so this was not a problem for me), descriptions don't tell you how to get INTO the poses, just how they work
I would not get this book to learn yoga. You would be more frustrated than helped (see the low rated comments). But if you are studying with a yogi then I think this book will help you better understand the processes that are happening when you do your poses. |
Totally Wonderfu!
| Customer Rating: | | This text is a wonderful way to educate the patient's and families about the benefits of yoga to strengthen and sustain muscle mass and agility. |
