Dr. Abigail Ellsworth – a certified Pilates specialist, owner of the Pilates, Therapy, and Health Maintenance Center in Wetchester, New York (USA). She wrote this book specifically for those who want not just to learn a couple of asanas but to approach yoga mindfully.
“Anatomy of Yoga” contains 50 key asanas with step-by-step illustrations and comments for the correct performance of each exercise.
A novice will easily grasp the basics of yoga, learn breath control (pranayama), warm-up and recovery, and learn not only how but also how long to perform each of the asanas. And those who have been practicing yoga for a long time will learn the meaning and nuances of taking the most important poses on a deeper level.
