Does a good job of breaking down the series

I enjoyed this book immensely. The book breaks down the Primary Series into workable parts. The book starts with the two Sun Salutations, then it goes into the standing postures, the seated postures, advanced seated postures, and finishing/closing postures. This book does a good job of offering some modifications to some of the poses. Berly Benders "Power Yoga" does an even better job, but this book is quite good to get started with. Pegrum demonstrates the poses with tremondous competency, and makes them look almost attainable :-). Overall, this is a good book to start with.

I found this one to be extremely informative & practical and thankfully free from the cliched vagueness of some other books I have read. It contains very clear photos and detailed instructions for each pose/sequence along with the benefits of each pose. The introduction talks about the origins of yoga, the 8 limbs, etc and basically how to get the best out of your practice (touching on routine, diet, etc). Probably best suited for individuals who have already been introduced to yoga (at any level).

Great!

This book is by far a great comprehensive view to AShtanga yoga. IT shows you how to do the various poses, alternative, easier ways, and the benefits of each of them. This is a must if you devote time to yoga and are an enthusiast. IT is best if you already have some degree of flexibility before you start this type of yoga.
