This is a fantastic practical approach for anyone new to yoga. I started practising yoga after reading this book! Its pretty straight forward, with detailed pictures of each asana. Never thought yoga could be so simple and fun! definitely recommend anyone interested in learning yoga to have a check.. I have read a few other books on the topic but realised although this are good book they get into to much detail on philosophical aspect of the art, it can be quite overwhelming for beginners .
