B.K.S. Iyengar Yoga the Path to Holistic Health: The Definitive Step-by-step Guide | Poses, breathing & philosophy | Ideal for beginners to advanced yoga practitioners

I think it is similar to light on yoga but with less intermediate and advanced stuff. It is more practical for beginner i guess. Picture are great. May contain repetions and redundant info like using props etc.Not sure.Note to amazon: Books should be dealt carefully. I can see many complaining books delivered having folds, means it gets thown around very badly either in their inventory or during transit.

Must book for all yoga trainers and self practice. Graphics and photos are high qulity. Each pose is explained nicely with step by step, including very small details. Twent week programme is added advantage.

Precise meaning of Yoga & benefits illustrated wonderfully. Use of props makes it easier in initial stages.

Got this book developed practice at home independently.Attending in person classes leaves one with sense of gratitude to introduction by yoga teacher, but by the time I would reach home I would face difficulty in recalling the sequences.This is just the most helpful book to refer for names, posture sequences. Illustrations of final postures with props. And many many more insights.

Pros:1. Basic to mid level postures covered.2. Good for begineers.3. Each postures explained with pictures from multiple angle.Cons:1. Beyond mid level (inverted headstand), there are not may postures.2. Repetition of poses (pictures) for specific ailment. Instead of poses (pictures), names of poses could have been sufficient.3. Book is heavy, which makes is difficult to carry everywhere and because it is expensive, do not feel like keeping on grass, while doing yoga.

It's a comprehensive book , easy to understand and follow for a healthy body .

I liked the book as it is very descriptive and every yoga posture is shown and explained in detail

This is an excellent book to read and follow. All asanas are explained in detail. I Loved to read.
