Astanga Yoga
Lorenz Books (Verlag)
978-0-7548-3525-7 (ISBN)
Astanga Yoga is a dynamic and energetic form of yoga that uses the breath to flow from one posture to the next. The postures, or asanas, are linked by vinyasa sequences, creating a heat that cleanses the body, while the mind stays clear and calm. The book begins with the history and philosophy behind Astanga yoga, explaining the important principles that any practitioner needs to know. The standing, seated and finishing asanas appear in the order that they are practised, and postures are shown in detail with clear instruction, and moderations to tailor the practice to all levels. The full sequence of the Primary Series is also shown all together, for easy reference. Finally, there is a section on abridged sequences, showing shorter, timed routines for everyday use. Authoritative teaching and beautiful photography make this the perfect introduction to Astanga Yoga.
Jean Hall has spent much of her life exploring bodywork disciplines and practising yoga. She discovered yoga whilst training as a dancer. It soon then became an integral part of her life, developing alongside her career as a contemporary performer and, perhaps more importantly, alongside her own personal learning and growth. She originally qualified as an Iyengar yoga teacher in 1995, and since then has continued to study different forms of yoga, movement and spiritual practices with many great teachers from diverse backgrounds. Of particular influence has been Pema Chödrön, Gill Clarke and Body Mind Centering. Through collaborating with other teachers and artists who share a flame for the expressive body, Jean continues to teach open yoga classes, workshops, retreats and courses in London, internationally and online. She is co-founder of both the Daoist Flow Yoga Teacher Training and Triyoga’s Advanced Teacher Training programmes. Jean holds an MA in Performing Arts and is a qualified Senior Yoga Teacher with Yoga Alliance Professionals UK, and an Experienced Registered Yoga Teacher (E-RYT-500) with Yoga Alliance US.
