Guest guest Posted March 6, 2001 Report Share Posted March 6, 2001 As far as good videos go, click on your left at "links" and then go to TSlade's website. He has a good listing of the best astanga yoga videos and where to obtain them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted March 6, 2001 Report Share Posted March 6, 2001 If you're any where near cornwall you might try this place<br><a href=http://www.ashtanga.co.uk/ target=new>http://www.ashtanga.co.uk/</a><br><br>As for videos and books, here's a reprint of a prior posting by TLSlade, who has a helpful website with lots of links.<br><br><br><br> Some other books which may be better would<br> be:<br> Yoga Mala - Pattabhi Jois<br> Astanga Yoga - Lino Miele<br> Ashtanga Yoga - The Practice Manual - David<br> Swenson<br> Ashtanga Yoga - John Scott<br> But I think it would be even better to get a video<br> ortwo. The video from Yoga Works with Pattabhi<br> Joisis a good reference. David Swenson and<br> RichardFreeman both have excellent videos<br> with lots ofexplanation. My current favorite is the<br> video of SarahPowers on Maui. I think the<br> Swenson video is a littlefast paced. Sarah says<br> to aim for 5 seconds on thethe inhale and 5<br> seconds on the exhale, so thepace is much<br> slower. Also, she gives lots of goodinstruction<br> on this video.<br> Info on where to get all these books and videos<br> ishere:<br> <a href=http://www.ionet.net/~tslade/yogabook.htm target=new>http://www.ionet.net/~tslade/yogabook.htm</a><br> <a href=http://www.ionet.net/~tslade/yogavid.htm target=new>http://www.ionet.net/~tslade/yogavid.htm</a> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted March 7, 2001 Report Share Posted March 7, 2001 The south of England is a big place, can you be more specific? There are lots of good teachers in London. John Scott in Cornwall is one of the top ashtangis in the world. There is a strong ashtanga scene in Oxford. Guy Donahaye used to teach in Bristol before he moved to New York, somebody probably took over from him in Bristol, you could mail him and find out: info<br><br>There's also a list of UK teachers at <a href=http://www.somathefirm.com/teacher05.html target=new>http://www.somathefirm.com/teacher05.html</a> - a bit of a mish-mash, I don't think they are all ashtanga teachers although most of them are.<br><br>Good luck.
