Subtlety of Science of YOGAâ¤
This is an incredible addition to my Yoga library. I have a similar soft copy but the impeccable inputs and deep research by Ann Swanson makes the book best among anatomy and physiology.

Excellent book
Love this book- the visuals and in-depth explanations are excellent. Really gives you a 3D understanding of anatomy and which muscles/bone/joints to work & control. It may not have all the asanas, but a very good starting point. Highly recommend!

As the book title suggests itâs science of yoga . Should have given a plan at end to follow depending upon issue or beginner to advance stages

i really enjoy the author’s writing style. She gets into the science of the body, and how yoga, tho ancient, is absolutely relevant for the health of the modern individual. Well done with superb illustrations on several poses. It really takes my practice to the next level, as I can identify which muscle groups are expanding or contracting in the pose. And the section on breathwork is really informative!it will definitely make you want to dive deeper into the ideas.

Unfortunately I returned my copy because I received it damaged. I can only talk about my first impressions. At first glance the way that knowledge is presented seems a little too general, the layout is a like a chaotic school textbook too. That may be appealing for some but me personally, I like simple, old-fashioned books where the knowledge is condensed in an organized manner. I could probably still learn from this book as it approached many different subjects. Now, the illustrations are fantastic. Too bad they decided to put those detailed, beautiful illustrations split across two pages, which makes them almost useless. You can’t even read some descriptions. This is a huge flaw in my opinion.Possibly in the future the format could be slightly bigger, and some illustrations smaller, so one would fit on a single page. That, I would reorder.

Very clear guidance on anatomy, functionality, the importance of correct usage of your muscles. Not only when you do you exercises but also the impact. Good visual images that are very straightforward and helpful.Usable For the teacher or the starting student or anyone interested in becoming more advanced.
