As regards John Scott and Gregor Maehle's books I feel they are more for the seasoned practitioner and in fact I bought Gregor Maehle's book after reading a review of the same in your blog .Krishnahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10245379054373909704noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7968814257486060435.post-10415382744671948662010-12-28T18:38:33.515+05:302010-12-28T18:38:33.515+05:30Yes, these are good, I would definitelly add two m...Yes, these are good, I would definitelly add two more as a suggestion, one is "Ashtanga Yoga" both the primary and intermediate series books by Gregor Maehle, I wrote a review of the second one, but have read both and they are REALLY good, he goes over philosophy, practice, anatomy and the pictures are amazing. He also has warm ups and modifications, and the first book includes his interpretation of the Yoga Sutras.<br /><br />You may or may not agree with him on everything but he has studied the shastras... here is my review of the second one, hope you like them<br /><br />http://www.elephantjournal.com/2010/12/9-things-i-liked-about-gregor-maehles-ashtanga-yoga-the-intermediate-series/<br /><br />The other book is the one by John Scott, helped me in the beginning, when the MAehle books were not yet published :-)Claudiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06609779915009954933noreply@blogger.com
