On the surface it may appear that yoga is yoga is yoga, but take a closer look and you’ll discover myriad different yoga systems and lineages. There are dozens of yoga styles to choose from, and while yoga is for everyone, not every style is the perfect fit for every person. But how do you choose between mysterious-sounding names such as Ashtanga, Kundalini, Bikram, and Kripalu? As Meagan McCrary discovered when she began exploring different classes, finding the right style is essential for establishing a steady yoga practice. Pick Your Yoga Practice is the first book to describe the most prominent yoga styles in depth, including teaching methodology, elements of practice, philosophical and spiritual underpinnings, class structure, physical exertion, and personal attention. Those new to yoga will discover they have options and can confidently attend a class of their choosing, while experienced practitioners will expand their understanding of the vast world of modern yoga, and perhaps find themselves venturing into new territory. Ashtanga * Iyengar * Kundalini * Integral * Kripalu Bikram * Jivamukti * Sivananda * Ananda Viniyoga * Svaroopa * Power * Forrest * ISHTA Anusara * Moksha * AcroYoga

Yin Yoga differs from other traditional forms of Hatha Yoga in that it focuses on opening the body through deep stretching intended to deliver circulation to the areas of the body. Yin Yoga stretches out the ligaments and fascia of the body to lubricate the joints, increase the health of the muscles and deliver fresh oxygen and blood throughout the body. Yin Yoga can increase flexibility and mental stamina while allowing the mind to intensely focus the mind to a point of singularity. This manual covers over 70 poses with descriptions of how to get into the pose, poses to open and stretch to the next pose, benefits, contraindications, modifications, progressions, and much more including many asanas with the accompanying myth or symbolic story to add to your practice or class! This book contains many sequences and thematic ideas for the whole year with a lunar schedule for a receptive yin practice, or turns any of the sequences provided into a restorative practice by adding applicable props and modifications. The Yin Manual covers the subtle bodies of yoga such as the meridian and chakra systems. The Yin manual contains information on the 8 limbs of yoga, meditations, pranayamas, bandhas, mudras, mantras, kriyas, and more. The appendix includes a glossary of terms, essential oil guide and simple at home remedies.

Hi! I'm Stacie Austin. I am a certified 225hr Holy Yoga Instructor and a former elementary educator- hence the lesson plan format of this book. ;) Please note that this book is intended for instructors or experienced yoga practitioners that already know proper alignment, modifications, and contraindications for each pose- as they are not listed in the book. When I began teaching yoga I would have LOVED to have a book like this with a complete lesson on one page. Now, I have created this book for YOU! This book is for yoga practitioners and instructors who may need a little help piecing together a class or just looking for some fresh ideas. For new instructors, my prayer is that this book will give you relief from the stress of designing a class from scratch AND that it will help you build confidence in teaching and/or practicing at home. These classes are to be considered a launch pad to get you started in teaching and eventually designing your own Christ centered yoga classes! If you have been teaching for a while, I also pray that this book can also help you with some tried and true lessons to fall back on or use to refresh your classes. PLEASE feel free tailor each class. Also, know that sometimes I fly through a lesson with 20 minutes to spare, while other times (same lesson) I barely finish the first two sections and I realize that it's "nap time." Consider each pose and flow a suggestion and use your best judgment on the speed and flow of your class. All lessons are pretty basic and can easily be modified for beginners and advanced students. This is a very simply illustrated book with poses translated to the most widely used English terms. Prayer and scripture reference are include for 12 (1hour) classes. The entire class fits onto one page, so you don't have to flip pages during the class. If you lay the book flat open, you can use the back of the previous page to add extra notes! I also left a blank plan outline in the back for you to copy and reuse. I want you to know that I have prayed for you and your classes. I hope that this book is a huge blessing to you and your students. Please enjoy your practice- One Pose at a Time...
