This is a comprehensive book on the Primary Series of Ashtanga Yoga as taught by Manju P. Jois after K. Pattabhi Jois and T. Krishnamacharya. It is available in paperback (6 x 9 inches, circa A 5) and hardcover (8.25 x 11 inches, circa A 4). It contains: - An introductory essay on the Primary Series and its place in the Ashtanga Yoga system - The transcript of a conversation between Manju P. Jois and the author - The detailed sequence of the Primary Series, asana by asana, breath by breath, with b/w photos, explanations, and the positive effects on health, as given by K. Pattabhi Jois and T. Krishnamacharya - The vinyasa count on which a class with Manju P. Jois is based - A practical list of asanas to memorize and >This book is intended as a documentation of the Primary Series for practitioners who are already somewhat familiar with Ashtanga Yoga and who want to better understand how more experienced students practice it so that they can become one themselves. The book is therefore intended to support learning under supervision, but not to replace it. The focus of the text is on the synchronization of breath and movement (vinyasa). The book is not a picture book. No variations of asanas are demonstrated. The photos always show only the moment to which the drishti (the focal point) refers; only in the sun salutations the entire sequence is shown. Thomas Still is a long-time, dedicated practitioner of Ashtanga Yoga from Munich, Germany (www.ashtangamunich.com). He is authorized by Manju P. Jois to teach Ashtanga Yoga. His first book "1 Percent Theory. An Attempt to Reconstruct the Forgotten Lessons of Ashtanga Yoga as Taught by Shri K. Pattabhi Jois and His Family" was called "the best book on Ashtanga Yoga" by David Williams. This new book is his adaptation of the Primary Series.
