About this product

Product Information

Ashtanga Yoga is a popular and athletic type of yoga developed by Sri K. Pattabhi Jois, one of the great modern gurus. Ashtanga Yoga is a popular and athletic type of yoga developed by Sri K. Pattabhi Jois, one of the great modern gurus. In this book, Kino MacGregor, one of Jois's disciples, explains Ashtanga's history and tradition; the essential connection of breath, posture, and gaze that is the core of the practice; how Ashtanga philosophy manifests in dietary and lifestyle choices; and how Ashtanga is fundamentally a path of spiritual transformation and development. MacGregor draws from her own personal experiences to illuminate this fascinating practice. She also describes and demonstrates the entire Ashtanga Yoga Primary Series in 125 halftones, which includes standing, seated, backbending, opening, and closing postures. This book is appropriate for those who are new to Ashtanga Yoga and want a solid, engaging introduction to the practice, and for more experienced practitioners who will be inspired by MacGregor and interested in her expertise and her holistic view of the practice.

This seller gave excellent communication & a full refund when the book I ordered was found to be damaged at the warehouse. They sent a very apologetic email explaining the issue & refunded me straight away. I have used this seller before & they have always been reliable & prompt with delivery. The items have also been in even better condition than described for an amazingly reasonable price. This was not their fault, so I would definitely buy from this seller again & recommend them to others.

  • Light in the Darkness

    Lets be clear: all yoga is challenging. Ashtanga Mysore Yoga (Kino McGregor's particular passion) is especially so, not least because it relies heavily on self-directed practice for progress rather than the more usual 'led' class format. As such, other than with intermittent adjustments by the teacher, you're largely on your own, your own taskmaster, your own pacemaker. You sink or swim entirely by your own efforts. If you don't progress, if you 'fail', there is no one to 'blame' but yourself. The yoga becomes a tantalising, sometimes mocking, mirror to your beliefs about yourself, and sometimes you might not like what you see. At some point on this journey you will come up hard against your own commitment, perserverance, self belief, and physical stamina. It hurts. Do you carry on, or do ...

  • Clear guide to Ashtanga yoga practice

    I recently started ashtanga yoga. I have found this book gives a clear guide to the asanas and gives variations to allow for those new to the practice. There’s a good guide at the back of the order of the asanas in the practice. My only complaint would be the quality of the photos of the asanas (black & white) and not clear enough to see the small details. I would recommend the book despite this.

  • Yogini is wise.

    One of the best modern writers of yoga , enlightened in being aware of the yoga going on around her and in asana. Reading her work reminded me that intuitive masters of yoga are possible in the west , coming from America. She is a yogini that has clearly withstood ages and can receive ages of wisdom. I am very blessed and grateful to have seen a book that she has written.
