As a yoga instructor, I am interested in learning the "hows" and "whys" behind the poses I teach in my classes. This book -- volume II behind "The Key Muscles of Hatha Yoga" -- is beautifully and extraordinarily illustrated, and strikes a perfect balance between the scientific and the metaphysical aspects of yoga practice. Well worth the money, it is an essential addition to any instructor's ( or student's) yoga library.

This book is a very good picture book that helps people understand our own structure and movements. I hope they can publish sequels that focus on certain parts of the body with more illustrated details and poses that will affect specific areas. I showed this book to my P.T., she liked it and encouraged me to continue all my yoga exercises and research to understand my own body better.
Excellent Text and Illustrations May 8, 2008

The book's design of using separate Theory and Practice sections has given me much more insight into how the mind and body work together when practicing Yoga. The author has turned an extremely detailed brain/anatomy lesson into something you really want to keep reading and explore further. The text combined with the illustrations in the Practice section help to tie it all together and get you towards the fullest extension of the pose while gaining knowledge of what is really working in your body at that time. Some mention and great illustration of the deep fibrous tissue are a plus. I would have liked more detail on that aspect but most books don't even address it. All around great guide, you will use it often.
