Book Reviews of Yoga AnatomyBook Review: a missing link has been found Summary: 5 Stars
excellent book... well-organized by asana. first book i have seen that applies so clearly and crisply per pose: alignment, detailed notes on anatomy involved, joint & limb actions, muscular actions, risks, levels of difficulty, notes, sanskrit translations, and crisp drawings based upon photographs from multiple angles. primary focus approached via breath and the spine. this is a treasure trove and not a million pages either - each pose is one to three pages - digestible in mini-sittings and at a glance.
Book Review: a must have book Summary: 5 Stars
Excellent book, easy to visualize and understand the muscles that create the movements. A must have for instructors and massage therapists.
Book Review: an amazing book!!!! Summary: 5 Stars
a great book for all who are interested in yoga anatomy- great images and all in very simple english.
Book Review: concise information Summary: 5 Stars
I was looking for an anatomy book that would help me solidify the information I needed in understanding what the body does in a particular asana. This book tells you just what you need to know to understand the mechanics of asana. The illustrations are the best I have seen in an anatomy book, and the explanations are well written. This is a great book for teachers.
Book Review: disappointed Summary: 1 Stars
The book is great for referencing basics of where muscles are in certain poses. Maybe it's because of the style of yoga I study, but based on ashtanga, they left out a number of muscles being contracted.
