Ashtanga Yoga: The Definitive Step-by-Step Guide to Dynamic Yoga by John C. Scott

Ashtanga Yoga is John Scott’s illustrated introduction to this dynamic form of yoga. Color photographs accompany step-by-step sessions that begin with a foundational sequence and build toward further practice.

The emphasis is on learning a physical yoga discipline progressively rather than rushing into advanced poses. Adapt any movement to your abilities and seek qualified instruction when needed, especially if an injury or medical condition affects your practice.
