Ashtanga differs from other yoga disciplines because it focuses on "vinyasa," a practice that uses postures and breathing to create heat in the body and thus increase circulation and flexibility. This comprehensive book integrates the two leading ashtanga approaches: Jois's ashtanga vinyasa yoga and the Yoga Sutra of Patanjali. The first half of the book presents a complete guide to the practice of ashtanga yoga. More than 50 postures are given clear and meticulous explanations, aided by photos, line drawings, and sidebars providing anatomical details, practical tips, mythological background, and "yogic context." The second half of the book begins with the history and lineage of yoga. It then presents an extensive commentary on the Yoga Sutras of Patanjali, which describe the path of ashtanga yoga and show why it is a realistic and rewarding one for modern practitioners.
Ashtanga Yoga: Practice and Philosophy is the first book of its kind, presenting a comprehensive guide to all eight limbs of Ashtanga Vinyasa Yoga. Join author Gregor Maehle, a seasoned yogi and compassionate teacher, as he guides you through the history and lineage of yoga; the fundamentals of breath, bandhas (energy locks within the body), drishti (the focal point of the gaze), and vinyasa (sequential movement); a detailed breakdown of the asanas of the Ashtanga Primary Series, following the traditional vinyasa count; a lively and authentic rendering of the complete Yoga Sutra of Patanjali, yoga's ancient sacred text; and a glossary of yoga terminology.
In the asana section, Maehle describes each posture with clear, meticulous instructions, photographs, anatomical illustrations, and practical tips. Information on the mythological background and yogic context of specific postures brings further insight to the practice. In the philosophy section, Maehle illuminates the Yoga Sutra using the major ancient commentaries as well as his own insights.
This volume makes the entire path of Ashtanga Yoga accessible to modern practitioners. Both practical guide and spiritual treatise, Ashtanga Yoga is an excellent introduction to the eight limbs of yoga and an invaluable resource for any yoga teacher or practitioner.
