Ashtanga Yoga
Intermediate Series DVD
with Kino MacGregor
Ashtanga yoga is a magical, dynamic system of yoga
originally taught by Sri K. Pattabhi Jois and Sharath Rangaswamy
in Mysore, India. It is comprised of six series of postures.
In this DVD
set, Kino MacGregor presents the Intermediate or Second Series
of Ashtanga
yoga. Called Nadi Shodhana in Sanskrit, this group of postures
cleanses the nervous system through a rigorous combination of
backbending, twisting, hip-opening and strengthening postures
or asanas.
The first disc in this 2 DVD set begins with
Kino's insights on this powerful practice and then moves directly
into the first segment demonstrating the Intermediate Series as
Kino learned it from her teachers in India. While the Second Series
is best learned under the guidance of a qualified teacher, you
can use this documentation to inspire, deepen and develop your
practice. The second disc in this DVD set, called "How to Work," gives
you more explanation, pointers and tips on how best to safely approach
some of the most challenging asanas in the series. Taken together,
this DVD set serves as a comprehensive guide to Ashtanga yoga's
Intermediate Series.
