This will be a great reference to me in my own practice of yoga and as I become a teacher. I will be going back to it again and again. So much detail, so interesting, and great illustrations!

Would probably be good to reread, but was still came away with useful insights despite not dwelling on the more technically complex sections

I can't recommend this book highly enough. I understand so much more about how my body functions in terms of movement and its many systems. As a beginner at yoga and as someone with an analytical mind, I am finding this book more useful in helping me understand the what and why of the practice than any other resource. Photos are clear, and diagrams straightforward. Not having a medical background, I found it useful to have the medical terminology explained (which Coulter does neatly and in plain English), though its unfamiliarity had me digging back pages to remind myself what a particular term meant.
