    Twist and Shout

    I thought this book's content would be more text but it's mostly pictures of poses that are wayyyy beyond anything I'll be doing. They're fascinating but so far out of my ability I can't even go there. So I read the beginning text and get what i can out of that to learn about yoga. It's good to have on the shelf.

  • A Classic - Timeless

    Mr. Iyengar is one of the world's foremost yoga practitioners and teachers. This book is a must for anyone who is serious about learning authentic yoga in all of its aspects. For an easier book to access this teaching, try the more modern "Yoga, the Path to Holistic Health" by the same author. Nothing replaces classes with a good yoga teacher - and if you want to take from the best, look for an authorized Iyengar or Ashtanga yoga teacher, they train for years before teaching.

  • Excellent Resource for any Yoga Teacher!

    This book is an essential resource for any yoga teacher or serious student. The book provides hundreds of excellent pictures demonstrating yoga poses and also includes variations and modifications of all poses. The book is very clearly written and organized for ease of use. As a yoga teacher I refer to this book weekly when planning my classes. Iyengar not only provides step by step instructions on how to get into and out of each yoga pose, but also gives the contraindictions of each pose which allows you to determine if the pose may not be appropriate for anyone suffering from a particular injury or disability.

  • Religion

    No one said it was a religion. It starts out with a prayer to who knows who that is. Pretzel poses & way too much religion. Not praying to an idol, & if you're bread dough; then you'll be able to do the poses with ease.
