Guest guest Posted March 4, 2010 Report Share Posted March 4, 2010 Hi Everyone A new book has just come out - 'Yoga Body: origins of modern posture practice' by Mark Singleton. Essentially, it questions many of the assumptions about our physical practice and suggests that the asanas that we do are actually drawn much more from 19thc bodybuilding and gymnastics than ancient yogic texts. I highly recommend this book as part of the process of debate and discussion within yoga. I have written a piece in response to this book - if you would like to read my thoughts, then go to www.yoga-abode.com/practice/in_answer_to_yoga_body Best wishes and keep practicing Norman Blair Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
