A must read for yoga students and teachers alike, highlighting accessibility in both the mental and physical practices of yoga in the studio and/or at home. The picture references and descriptions for asana instruction was super helpful, and how to incorporate props. I also appreciated the social-justice and human rights oriented framework. ( ) There are not enough superlatives to do justice to the beauty and importance of Accessible Yoga. It does what it says and shows through illustrations how to do different poses on a mat, in a chair, with supports, such as bolsters, and gives permission for everybody to what's right for them. He calls out yoga culture that is competitive and closed and elite making it difficult to share in the human experience of doing yoga and meditation. But the beauty of the book lay in its philosophy about human rights and accessibility for all, disabled or not. Mr. Heyman reminds us that without equality and social justice for all groups, especially one's that are marginalized we cannot even begin to do justice to supporting everybody in their practice; the way we all deserve to be supported. Breaking down barriers to include everybody is at the heart of this stunning book. Thank you to Edelweiss and Shambala books for allowing me to review this book for an honest opinion. ingen anmeldelser | tilføj en anmeldelse
Yoga practice has so much to offer us physically, emotionally, mentally, and spiritually. It is truly a practice for all-- you do not need to be young, slim, and flexible to practice it. Heyman breaks down poses, breathing practices, meditation techniques and yoga teachings into practical tools that we can use every day, regardless of our limitations or challenges. -- adapted from back cover No library descriptions found. |
