Synopsis: A user's guide to intermediate-level practice of Ashtanga Yoga, from the dynamic yoga teacher Kino MacGregor
In her first book, Kino MacGregor introduced readers to Ashtanga Yoga, a popular and athletic type of yoga developed by her mentor, Sri K. Pattabhi Jois. Now, she returns with this informative follow-up to present and explain the Second—or Intermediate—Series to practitioners who wish to take their practice to the next level. MacGregor provides step-by-step instructions and covers the key aspects of the practice, including:
· The basics of Ashtanga Yoga philosophy
· Essential background information on the Intermediate Series
· How to know when you are ready to take on this next stage of practice
· The purification aspects of the practice
· The pranayama techniques associated with the practice
· And more
With over 250 photographs, this solid and engaging entrée into intermediate-level practice is a wonderful resource for both practitioners and teachers.
