Book Reviews of Yoga Anatomy
Book Review: Interesting Reading on a Difficult Subject
Summary: 5 Stars
Yoga Anatomy is the best book I have purchased on the subject. I have been practicing Yoga for about 33 years and teaching some classes during the 33 years. The illustrations are clear, concise and to the point for the asanas demonstrated. The book is well written and interesting. I recommend it to all Yoga Teachers and serious Yogis. I am registered to teach certification, if I pursue this, Yoga Anatomy by Leslie Kaminoff will be one of the text books used in my class. Thank you for such a wonderful book on Yoga Anatomy.Book Review: Yoga Anatomy
Summary: 5 Stars
This book is a great tool for yoga teachers and anyone wanting to further their knowledge of yoga and anatomy. The drawings are incredible. The notes accompanying the drawings are exactly what I need to deepen my understanding of yoga anatomy. The layout for each asana is clear and easy to understand with everything I would want to know about that posture. The text about the Breath in general is thorough. The text about the breath in each posture is not something I have found in other texts. What an incredible resource!!Book Review: Yoga Anatomy Book
Summary: 5 Stars
This is a great book. I was assigned another book when I studied yoga. it was garbage ( for a yoga teacher). But this one is fantastic. You can learn more about yoga anatomy and movement limitations in this one. Its easy to read, the illustrations are the best I've ever seen for explaining how the joints & muscles work in each pose. Some of the pose ( asana) names are non-standard, but who cares? There is an entire series of these books - Anatomy for stretching, etc. I've bought them all now. Thats how good these are.Book Review: a missing link has been found
Summary: 5 Stars
excellent book... well-organized by asana. first book i have seen that applies so clearly and crisply per pose: alignment, detailed notes on anatomy involved, joint & limb actions, muscular actions, risks, levels of difficulty, notes, sanskrit translations, and crisp drawings based upon photographs from multiple angles. primary focus approached via breath and the spine. this is a treasure trove and not a million pages either - each pose is one to three pages - digestible in mini-sittings and at a glance.Book Review: Incredible resource
Summary: 5 Stars
"Yoga Anatomy" by Leslie Kaminoff is a precious gift to the postural Yoga community. Leslie's wealth of knowledge of anatomy, breathing and bodywork shines on every page.
This book is easy to understand and beautifully illustrated and comes complete with Sanskrit and English terms and a chapter on breathing. "Yoga Anatomy" is an invaluable book and one I would highly recommend for teacher training programs.
