In Yogabody, author and world-renowned yoga teacher Judith Hanson Lasater writes, "You can't fully understand the dynamic movement of asana without first understanding the basic structure of the human body."

Drawing on almost 40 years' experience as a yoga teacher and physical therapist, she focuses here on macro anatomy and kinesiology in relationship to asana practice and teaching.

Organised into five parts - the locomotor system, the vertebral column, the lower extremity, the trunk, and the upper extremity, Yogabody covers the body's bones, joints, connective tissue, nerves, and muscles.

Packed with colour anatomical drawings, black-and-white diagrammatic asana illustrations, and helpful charts, this valuable guide builds on what yoga teachers already know and enables them to quickly decide what might help their students move with more enjoyment and less difficulty. It helps yoga students understand how their own body functions.

Teaching Yoga explores in depth and with compassion the whole area of ethics & the teacher-student relationship. Drawing on decades of experience training yoga teachers and co-writing the California Yoga Teachers Association (CYTA) code of ethics, Donna Farhi offers the first book to set professional standards for teaching yoga.

Covering a variety of topics both practical and philosophical, this work explores how to create healthy boundaries; the student-teacher relationship (including whether a sexual relationship is acceptable); how to create physical and emotional safety for the student; what is a reasonable class size; how much a class should cost; and how to conduct the business of teaching while upholding the integrity of yoga as a philosophy, a science, and an art.

A bonus CD features the author speaking about yoga ethics.

This daring, visionary book revolutionises yoga practice and makes it truly accessible to everyone, in every body, at any age, and in any state of health.

Yoga practice has so much to offer us physically, emotionally, mentally, and spiritually. But many of us feel discouraged to practise because we see young, slim, flexible, well, and able-bodied people dominating yoga spaces. Yet, yoga is truly a practice for all, conferring enormous benefits to our overall well-being as our bodies change, age, and navigate various health challenges.

Jivana Heyman, founder of Accessible Yoga, views yoga as a basic human right, saying we all deserve to practise it in whatever state we find our body or mind.

Accessible Yoga offers a simple, clear, and wonderfully adaptable practice for all people regardless of ability, health, and body type. Heyman has spent over twenty years sharing yoga with people of all abilities and backgrounds, and in this book, he shares his knowledge by breaking down complex yoga poses, breathing practices, meditation techniques, and yoga teachings into clearly understandable and practical tools we can use every day, regardless of our limitations or challenges.
