In this insightful book, Gregor Maehle skillfully reveals the essential techniques of Ashtanga Yoga, covering important elements such as breathing, bandhas (energy locks), and drishti (focal points). It then provides a detailed and comprehensive analysis of each posture in the Primary Series, following the traditional vinyasa (sequential movements) count. The inclusion of clear anatomical illustrations, detailed explanations, and striking photographs enhances the text, making complex concepts easier to grasp. Moreover, the book explores the mythological and yogic context behind specific postures, enriching the reader’s understanding of the practice. With practical advice sprinkled throughout, readers are encouraged to incorporate these insights and improve their practice. This second improved edition contains 14% more content, greatly expanding its depth. It also features larger print for easier reading, with consistently numbered footnotes for quick reference, and a newly added list of shastras quoted within the text.
