About the Book

There are many, well-written anatomy books that basically describe what muscles are being engaged in each posture. What makes this text unique and an essential guide to asana practice is that it goes beyond simply naming parts to present clear and concise principles for how the body correctly moves and aligns. This book supports all styles of yoga and all levels of practice. It provides insightful tips and answers to many questions that arise for both teachers and students alike. Its concepts are user-friendly and presented from yoga's point of view. Alignment allows your practice to advance and go deeper while avoiding injury. And, alignment is the basis of yoga as therapy for existing injuries. Practicing with good alignment enables yoga to deliver on its promise of being a system of health, vitality, and restoration. This is the ideal book for yoga teacher trainings. It will become your primary, "go-to" resource for asana-related questions. As a teacher, you will have confidence that your adive is anatomically correct and will enhance the student's practice. As the student or practitoner, know that your time on the mat will be therapeutic and structured to avoid injuries.

Review :
...a brilliant resource for students, teachers, body workers, and frankly, anyone living in a body! Thorough, clear, and concise descriptions and illustrations. Dr. Weiss offers an exploration of anatomy and yoga's therapeutic applications in a manner accessible to all. In a time of yoga's global expansion, resources such as this are needed more than ever. The reader is able to grasp and apply techniques and alignment cues that are relevant and fully experiential. This book continues to be a reference and resource for all Yoga Teacher training programs at Evolve. Ann Hunt, E-RYT 500 Director of Education/Owner, Evolve Yoga + Wellness A wonderful book! It has the answers to many unanswered questions. Written from the heart with much insight relevant for a yoga teacher, both in its notions of anatomy and its attitude towards yoga. This is the anatomy book that every yoga teacher should have! Francesca (Omkari) Folonari Sivananda YogaInCentro-Firenze, Italy Steven Weiss' book has been a great gift to our studio. It is a primary resource for our 200-hour and 300-hour training programs. Dr. Weiss has done an amazing job in putting all of his experience and knowledge into this clearly written text. There are great diagrams and pictures that help illustrate various postures and anatomical references. Few anatomy for yoga texts will address specific concerns and injuries that occur by practicing incorrectly or too forcefully. This book goes beyond safety measures to include specific therapeutic techniques for injuries and structural imbalances. Everything is easy understand and to put into practice. It provides everything a teacher or student needs for practicing yoga and remaining injury free, finding ease, sukha and experiencing the "yoga of being". Priscilla Potter, Director Yoga Connection, Tucson, Arizona ... a value beyond words. It is essential in my personal growth, as well as key learning material in all my teacher training programs. Students and facilitators alike are able to break down and understand such a complex subject as well as continue to learn and grow with diverse material. Steven makes learning anatomy simple and practical! I have so many anatomy books that just sit on my shelf and never get opened. This one is so functional and relevant that it's my go-to resource of knowledge. Alice Hong Inspired Yoga Institute, Calgary, Alberta Canada
