Sally Parkes - A jógaanatómia kézikönyve - 30 alappóz elemzésekkel magyarázatokkal and ábrákkal

Thanks to the combination of detailed, colorful anatomical illustrations, text written with serious expertise, and practical, insightful guides, this volume provides unique help for yogis, practicing yoga teachers, and anyone interested in how our body works during movement. After an overview of human anatomy, we can read about the origins, traditions and spiritual aspects of yoga, and then the author covers the physiology of breathing, muscle activity and the parts of the body that are particularly active during yoga. The main part of the book analyzes 30 classic yoga asanas in detail, from the practical, step-by-step breakdown of movements leading to the optimal position to the analysis of muscle activity, all accompanied by fascinating anatomical illustrations that clearly reveal to us what takes place in the body during each asana. Seeing and understanding exactly which muscles are active in each pose not only increases anatomical knowledge, but also helps to practice yoga as efficiently as possible.
