Book Reviews of Yoga Anatomy
Book Review: Excellent graphs and explanations!
Summary: 5 Stars
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.Book Review: Excellent learning tool!
Summary: 5 Stars
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!Book Review: Excellent pictures but needs more details
Summary: 3 Stars
This book is worth its money simply because you will get to see the different muscles that are being used/worked in each pose. Additionally, for each pose the author makes very useful comments like the most common errors in the pose, or tips for how to get the most out of the pose. The anatomical vocabulary level is very high--someone with no background in anatomy would have a very hard time understanding the terminology. And not all the muscles that are discussed are labeled in the picture. Overall, I would have liked more poses featured, and more of a layman's description of what is happening.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: Excellent!
Summary: 5 Stars
Absolutely excellent book! I even went back to purchase another one to give as a gift!
I've already started recommending this book to my yoga students so that they'll understand which muscles are activated during a pose.
I highly recommend!
