Advanced hatha yoga - classic methods of physical education and concentrati

Häftad bok. Inner Traditions. 2012. 288 sidor.

Nyskick. Ur läsarrecensioner: "Det finns tusentals böcker om yoga och det finns tusentals yogastudior. Verkliga yogier avskilde sig medan de studerade. De gick aldrig till ”studior”, kanske upp till källan till Ganges till en liten hydda eller en grotta med några böcker och ett par filtar. Shyam Sundar Goswami och Satchindra Kumar Majumdar var två exempel på sådana stora yogier."
" Excellent!! Detta är en av de bästa böckerna om Hatha Yoga. Den har bra bilder och detaljerade andnings- och asanainstruktioner. Det är en stor bok så den faller platt när jag gör asana på mattan. Det finns mycket välskrivna träningsplaner för lätta, medelstora och intensiva nivåer. Så det var lätt att välja min plannivå utifrån vad jag kunde utföra. Älskar boken och använder den nu!"
