Yoga for You does not offer pat instructions; rather, it is an intuitive guidebook drawing from several years of teaching experience. It is a form of sharing.

Yoga for You is a book for everyone committed to yoga from students to teachers. It provides tips to instructors, counsel to serious practitioners, and a unique perspective to those who self-train.

Covering a range of classical, intermediary and rest poses from the ever-challenging sirsasana (headstand) to the supremely calming balasana (child pose) this book places an emphasis on rectifying poor technique. The detailed lists of fine corrections, the cues on how best to progress, and the photographs to illustrate these points, make this book an invaluable guide.

Equally, Yoga for You sheds light on the tricks that can make a yoga class or a self-training session more efficient, with instructions on time management, asana sequencing and the best structure for practice sessions. Most of all, the keen insights offered by Prahlada Reddy, the head of the Sivananda Yoga Vedanta Center in Toronto, and Shameem Akthar, an acclaimed yoga instructor, makes this book a must for all yoga buffs.
