Paperback. Condición: Very Good. This fully illustrated book offers a firm grounding in sequences of key power yoga postures (also known as astanga vinyasa yoga). It enables enthusiasts to perform and develop flowing postures and also to tune into the more subtle elements of this dynamic, empowering practice. The book aims to make poses accessible to all by offering detailed guidance on the sun salutation, as well as on foundation standing, balancing, seated, and finishing postures. Step-by-step photographs and easy-to-follow captions offer clear, precise instructions to help readers understand how to consolidate yoga learned in a class, and to take the classic yoga postures further with awareness, control, and safety. Easier and harder variations of each posture, as well as hands-on teaching points, also are given throughout the sequence. This is a complete course with a clear step-by-step breakdown of each pose, based on the traditional astanga series, and a refresher course for those already practicing. The term "power yoga" is not concerned with external power, but rather with internal power: an individual's courage to be grounded in the present moment. Implementation of power yoga's subtle "eight limbs" (astanga) - ethics, self-discipline, ujjayi breathing, postures (asana), concentration, meditation, absorption, and sense withdrawal - can help practitioners to transform negative patterns into positive ones, ease emotional or physical discomfort, and attain more integration and balance. - A new approach for all those who have enjoyed yoga classes and want to develop and progress - Comprehensive course with a clear step-by-step breakdown of each pose and its benefits - Step-by-step photographic sequences for each posture - Em-power-ing information on vital yoga components such as breathing, energy seals, meditation, gaze, postures, and flow in the context of each posture - Full instructions on how to individualise your own routines - Exploration of common blocks to perfecting the poses, and guidance on making breakthroughs - Particular attention to body alignment and positioning - Suggested programmes from 10 to 75 minutes long - Unique spiral stand-up format that allows the book to be used at eye level or next to your yoga mat.
