Introduction to Ashtanga Yoga DVD

Kino MacGregor’s clear, energetic spirit leads you through this powerful introduction to Ashtanga yoga. The DVD is broken up into three key sections: philosophy, practice, and breath. Tim Feldman, Kino’s fellow student of Ashtanga, considers breath far more important than any bending and stretching on the mat, and leads you through a guided discussion and instruction about breathing. Greg Nardi introduces you to the philosophical foundations that yoga is built upon, citing texts and yogic wisdom. The practice section, lead by Kino and Tim, is certainly the section you will be replaying again and again. The teachers adapt the exercises to be suitable for both beginning and advanced students. The teachers lead a full one-hour practice of sun salutations, standing postures, seated postures, backbends, and finishing postures. Use the practice lead by these powerful teachers to help you to begin a daily practice, and to dip into some inspiration when your well is running dry. This multifaceted introduction to yoga is designed to help you realize the full potential of a daily practice, to help bring your life into a place of peace, and to help you to feel more happy. Kino MacGregor is the youngest woman to receive certification to teach Ashtanga Yoga by its founder Sri K. Pattabhi Jois in Mysore, India. She is the founder of the Miami Life Center in Miami, Florida and a teacher of international repute.
