Description:
This powerful yoga practice will no doubt be of great benefit to runners--and pretty much anyone else, for that matter--but beginners beware: the material presented here is neither easy nor intended for the very inexperienced. Thom and Beryl Bender Birch have shortened and adapted the ashtanga yoga series, a "high heat, high energy" workout that incorporates sun salutations, standing poses, seated positions, and more, with a good deal of vinyasa work (i.e., flowing series of poses). The pace is brisk, the practice strenuous, and while the instruction is good, there is little or no warm-up provided. Newer users are definitely advised to view the program in its entirety before trying it; especially valuable are the detailed explications of the poses and yoga breathing method that follow the practice itself. This is strong stuff, highly recommended to those who know what they're doing. --Sam Graham
