REVIEW 5 STAR

"Really good fact/study book on yoga! Have just had time to go through the whole book and I think it is super good. Now I am a Kundalini yoga teacher but am thinking of including it in my teaching for future yoga teachers. If all teacher training could follow the 8 modules, we would have very knowledgeable yoga teachers. A big plus is that it is so wide. From Hatha yoga to Kundalini yoga, meditation, chakras and mantra magic. Good that it also had a module about Ayurveda. Recommended!"
