Praise for
TH[ COMPLET[ BOOK
OF
VINVASA YOGA
"Srivatsa Ramaswami's book is nothing less than a treasure for yoga students at
every level of ability. Its informative introduction to practice, combined with
clear descriptions of literally hundreds of yoga postures, have brought
Krishnamacharya's vision of
asana
teaching to life. Each pose is skillully embed�
ded within a classical family of movements-a
vinyasa
sequence-and these are
illustrated by well�chosen photographs. Equally valuable, the text grounds each
reader in the undamental idea of vinyasa-the integration of movement,
breath, and mindulness that is so vital to a rewarding yoga practice. Aided by
its simple and agreeable style of writing, this book will undoubtedly become a
standard reference for those seeking to understand the spirit of yoga."

Yoga: Mastering the Basics
"This book is a precious contribution to yoga; ancient knowledge brought forth
by Professor T. Krishnamacharya and faithully presented to us by his dear stu�
dent Ramaswami. You can place these vital principles into the yoga that you
already know and love to make your practice powerul, safe, and eicient. This
is the ull spectrum of yoga rom the "teacher of our teachers." With no agenda
except to accurately represent yoga, Ramaswami duplicates his teacher's
knowledge gathered over thirty·three years of private lessons with him. Study
this book. It is straight rom the source."
-MARK WHITWELL,
author of
Yoga of the Heart
"he Complete Book of Vinyasa Yoga
is truly comprehensive as it incorporates
proper breathing guidance coordinated with an incredible variety of yoga
vinyasas. Techniques for stretching and strengthening the thoracic muscles
associated with breathing and increasing the length of inhale and exhale makes
this book useul even in therapeutic settings. In teaching yoga to cancer
patients at the USC (University of Southern Califonia) cancer hospital, breath
awareness and control (pranayama) is the most important ingredient for
decreasing pain. Additionally, bandhas are essential for restoring strength to
the inner core of pelvic muscles in prostate cancer patients. Ramaswami has
included all. This book supplies me with a complete array of tools to help my
students."
-VIVIAN RICHMAN,
yoga therapist, USC/ Norris Cancer Center
"Beautiul. Masterul. Complete. The ull spectrum of Krishnamacharya's asana
teaching methods. Instructions are clear, concise, accurate, ully illustrated,
and given in exquisite detail. Here for the irst time are all eleven sequences
including the Visesha (special) sequences and a chapter on the proper way to
end a practice. Ardent students and serious teachers of the yoga of
Krishnamacharya will rejoice."
