Yoga Anatomy

Leslie Kaminoff is a master yoga educator. Having had previous editions of this book that were used on yoga TTC and have also done one of his Leslie’s courses, you cannot beat the level of knowledge and expertise here. This is as fabulous as previous editions but expanded. One reviewer said it was complicated but I personally did not find that as I have over 15 yoga anatomy books and this is still the best there is for language, description, explanation and diagrams. Highly recommended for yoga teachers, serious practitioners and those that like to be a bit nerdy on anatomy!

A lot of detail

👍

Moderate anatomical detail, still rather basic, but what is the mentality of the artist? These are supposed to be anatomical diagrams, so just who would pencil in outlines of bras and pants or trousers on the figures? The book is about muscle groups and all that this does is obscure relevant detail. Insane! At least it's better than the book I returned, that had no anatomy to speak of.

I honestly don't like it very much. Especially as the Asanas are explained, I expected more.

This book is a really useful tool for yoga teachers or students needing to apprehend wich body parts are involved in specifics asanas. Also the first chapters are really interesting. Binding is great for a practical use.

Smaller book than I expected but exactly what I was looking for. Even though it’s more expensive I’d recommend the spiral bound one 👌

I must say a lot of work has gone into the production. The devil is in the details!

I wanted to do some pre-work before starting my Yoga Cert courses. This popped up as one of the most recommended. Going through it was definitely helpful. The illustrations are the right amount of detail. I even took pictures of some of the images with my phone to create flash cards on my phone. I felt ready, if not ahead of the curve for my cert classes and continue to use the book as a quick reference guide when describing a new pose.

Livro extremamente completo. Para ler continuamente ou para consultar sempre que necessário. Utilizo-o com o objectivo de aprender para melhor servir os meus alunos de Yoga.
