Book Reviews of Yoga Anatomy
Book Review: The Best!
Summary: 5 Stars
This text is TOTALLY well prepared. If you do yoga, it is a must have. If you like naked women without their skin, then, well, this is most interesting!
Seriously, as a yoga student who is nearly 60, it's been MOST useful.

Book Review: Yoga in 3-D
Summary: 5 Stars
I own and use many anatomy books, from Gray's to the coloring book. Could another book really offer anything new and interesting? Yes!!! Yoga Anatomy brings the subject to life, making muscles relevant not just to yoga, but to every day activities, too. The illustrations are cool and make you want to get down on the mat and practice and feel.

Book Review: Incredible resource
Summary: 5 Stars
"Yoga Anatomy" by Leslie Kaminoff is a precious gift to the postural Yoga community. Leslie's wealth of knowledge of anatomy, breathing and bodywork shines on every page.
This book is easy to understand and beautifully illustrated and comes complete with Sanskrit and English terms and a chapter on breathing. "Yoga Anatomy" is an invaluable book and one I would highly recommend for teacher training programs.

Book Review: Excellent purchase
Summary: 5 Stars
I was extremely pleased with this book. Great biological-physical explanations of what happens in your body and how it works with yoga practice.
Full of nice illustrations which really exemplify and support what you're reading, so it becomes really much easier to understand stuff.
Not complicated at all, but still very explanatory. If you're into yoga and would like to know a litle bit more of what happens to your body, which muscles you work in different asanas, and how its beneficial to you , then I really recomend you get this. You won't be dissapointed.
Book Review: Great illustrations
Summary: 5 Stars
I first saw this book in the library and was so impressed by it that I had to buy one for my personal reference. It is greatly illustrated. They photographed a person in several yoga positions and then inserted the muscular anatomy into the pose. I found the muscle information very helpful as well as the description of the positions. If you want to know how yoga is affecting your muscles in your body then you will love this book.
