Book Reviews of Yin Yoga

Book Review: An inspired read for anyone who's interested in yoga
Summary: 4 Stars

Paul Grilley's book contains all you need to know to try out this wonderful style of yoga at home. It's a great mix of practical instruction and theory - yoga teachers interested in Yin Yoga will find it a useful teaching aid while students who've been practicing for some time will find the approach outlined in this book a great way to shake up their practice and try something new.
The writing style is non-fussy throughout with helpful diagrams to explain the anatomy and theory where necessary. There are photos to accompany each posture and the variations are included too so you can take a look and make sure you've got it right. What's really useful is the bibliography where the author credits all the reading and reasearch that inspired him to write the book - great if, like me, you want to know more! Perhaps my favourite thing about this book is the author's tone - it's confident and encouraging throughout, like any good yoga teacher should be!
As a teacher, I would have found a section on contraindications included but aside from that, I can honestly say this is one of the most useful, informative and inspiring yoga books I have found.
