Description
Ashtanga - or ''power yoga'' is an energetic form of yoga that can be practiced by people of all ages and fitness levels. With its active aerobic component and dynamic poses, Ashtanga yoga has revolutionized the fitness and yoga fields, becoming the preferred exercise of those who wish to combine the spiritual benefits of yoga with the rewards of a more rigorous athletic exercise program. Beautifully written and illustrated by yoga master John Scott, Ashtanga Yoga takes you step-step through the sequence of flowing energetic movements that comprises Ashtanga yoga's unique eight-limb system. With clarity and detail, Scott outlines vinyasa, the breath-movement system that distinguishes Ashtanga from other forms of yoga. When mastered, vinyasa produces a heat that releases toxins residing in the deep muscle layers of the body, thereby alleviating fatigue, stress, depression, muscle atrophy, and illness. Practicing Ashtanga yoga will also allow you to purify your body and relieve stress with dynamic movement and precise postures and develop physical strength, increased stamina, and greater flexibility. John Scott is certified to teach Ashtanga Yoga by the Ashtanga Yoga Research Institute in India where he studied under the world-renowned yogi Shri Pattabhi Jois. In 1997, John opened Ashtanga London. He counts among his students such celebrities as Madonna and Sting. Opening Mantra • Foreword • Introduction 1. The Way Of Ashtanga Yoga 2. Vinyasa 3.
