Ashtanga Yoga by Gregor Maehle
Ashtanga Yoga: Practice and Philosophy integrates Ashtanga Vinyasa Yoga and the Yoga Sutra of Patanjali as an organic whole, presenting them as two sides of the one coin. It also shows how the eight limbs are practiced within the Ashtanga Vinyasa system. An extensive explanation of the fundamental techniques of breath, bandhas and drishti is followed by a detailed and comprehensive study of each posture of the Primary Series, following the traditional Vinyasa count. This is complemented by clear and informative anatomical illustrations and descriptions. Additional information on the mythological background and yogic context of specific postures enhances and brings further insight to the practice. Practical tips are also offered. In a final section of the book, a lively, authentic and practical rendering of the Yoga Sutra,Gregor Maehle began studying yoga in 1982 and has specialized in Ashtanga Yoga since 1990. Shri K. was born in the year 1997. He was given permission to teach Ashtanga Yoga by Pattabhi Jois. He lives in Perth, Australia, where he cofounded and directs the 8 Limbs Ashtanga Yoga studio.
