Yoga Cards

Subjects: yoga, Iyengar yoga

Description: Iyengar yoga is a practical philosophy and system of asanas promoting physical, mental and spiritual well-being. Through practice, yoga not only tones the body and improves posture but will stimulate the circulation, aid the function of internal organs and develop deeper powers of concentration. This beautifully presented practical yoga pack provides expert guidance for beginners and intermediate yoga practitioners. The cards are grouped into type for easy reference and are graded with difficulty, with modifications and more advanced variations to suit all levels of fitness and flexibility. Each card features a single asana with clear step-by-step photographs showing how to move in and out of each posture correctly. The cards can be mixed around and create a personalised routine to suit time restraints, emotional and physical needs at any one time. The special feature cards contain over 25 suggested routines to follow for specific circumstances and conditions — for example, sequences that will benefit illnesses and common problems like headaches, backache and arthritis. With a handy fold-back easel and front corner pockets to slot the cards into, allowing completely hands-free concentration on the exercise and postures, this practical deck of cards makes the perfect yoga collection for people of all ages and abilities.
