Synopsis:

Maran Illustrated™ Yoga is a valuable resource for all readers, regardless of age or fitness level. Instead of describing the myriad ways to perform each pose, Maran Illustrated™ Yoga shows the reader the best way, while the full-color photographs and clear, step-by-step instructions walk the reader through each pose from beginning to end. Thorough topic introductions and useful tips provide additional information and advice to enhance the readers’ yoga experience and help meet their individual needs. Maran Illustrated™ Yoga is packed with essential information including warm-up poses, breathing exercises, seated poses, chair poses, standing poses, bends, relaxation poses, practice sequences and much more. This book is an invaluable guide for beginners who wish to familiarize themselves with the basics of yoga without having to participate in classes, or as a refresher course for individuals wishing to become reacquainted with yoga.
Maran Illustrated™ Yoga costs less than the price of one private yoga lesson and will be a permanent resource that can be accessed at any time.

Dating back more than 5,000 years, yoga is a sophisticated discipline that combines fitness training, relaxation techniques and lifestyle change possibilities. The health benefits of yoga are numerous, including stress relief, physical exercise and therapeutic relief from ailments such as chronic back pain, hypertension, migraine headaches and insomnia. The popularity of yoga is on the rise. Over 100 million people worldwide practice yoga, according to The Viniyoga of Yoga, including many high-profile celebrities, such as Madonna, Sting, and Gwyneth Paltrow.

From the Publisher: - Appeals to visual learners – With over 500+ full-color photographs, this book is jam-packed with photographs, illustrations and color coding to engage readers and simplify the learning process.
- Appeals to beginner, intermediate and advanced training— Using simple, easy-to-understand and concise text, this book covers a wide variety of yoga poses, ranging from the basic Prayer Pose to more challenging poses such as Shoulderstand. A great reference for all skill levels!
- Skill level ratings – Each yoga pose in this book is rated from Level 1 (Very Easy) to Level 5 (Challenging). This rating system helps readers adapt their yoga practice to their own skill level.
