Would they start with sun salutations right away after introducing proper breathing an bandhas or would there be some introductory lessons until they think that the beginner can do sun salutation without hurting themselves, e.g. in... ]]> feeds@yuku.com (dirk drolli) http://yoga84291.yuku.com/topic/2648 Sun, 20 Aug 2006 23:37:33 GMT http://yoga84291.yuku.com/topic/2637/t/Yoga-Makaranda.html
Have any of you seen a copy of the (out of print) Yoga Makaranda by Krishnamacharya or know where I might obtain one? I've searched other forums and checked eBay and Google already.

(If this is not the correct forum for this question, please direct me to the proper one.)

My right hip is much more open than my left. I can sit comfortably with right leg first in half lotus for 30 minutes, no strain. However, my left hip (and ankle) is less flexible and I cannot sit in half lotus left leg first for any amount of time (I can get into all half lotus postures of primary with no trouble, I just cannot remain long in half lotus with knees firmly resting on ground, without... ]]> feeds@yuku.com (AR) http://yoga84291.yuku.com/topic/2652 Fri, 07 Jul 2006 11:29:34 GMT http://yoga84291.yuku.com/topic/2653/t/Yoga-Plus-Formerly-Yoga-International.html I'm curious if anyone has noticed the big change at YI. It begs the question is "reaching out to a broader audience" always selling out.

From what I understood most forms of yoga including ashtanga is Yang in nature in that they focus on muscular contractions and extensions. Whereas Yin Yoga works on the connective tissue of the hips, pelvis and lower spine and the postures are held for about 5 mins each.
