Yoga Body, Yoga Spirit: Can We Have Both?

It's straightforward why John Friend profoundly prescribes the book Yoga Body: The Origins of Modern Posture Yoga "for every earnest understudy of yoga." Because, Mark Singleton's proposition is a very much looked into uncover of how present day hatha yoga, or "stance practice," as he terms it, has changed inside and after the training left India.

In any case, the book is primarily about how yoga changed in India itself over the most recent 150 years. How yoga's fundamental, present day advocates T. Krishnamacharya and his understudies, K. Patttabhi Jois and B. K. S. Iyengar-blended their homegrown hatha yoga rehearses with European tumbling.

This was what number of Indian yogis adapted to innovation: Rather than staying in the caverns of the Himalayas, they moved to the city and grasped the approaching European social patterns. They particularly grasped its progressively "recondite types of tumbling," including the powerful Swedish procedures of Ling (1766-1839).

Singleton utilizes the word yoga as a homonym to clarify the fundamental objective of his theory. That is, he underscores that the word yoga has numerous implications, contingent upon who uses the term.

This accentuation is in itself a commendable undertaking for understudies of everything yoga; to grasp and acknowledge that your yoga may not be a similar sort of yoga as my yoga. Just, that there are numerous ways of yoga.

In such manner, John Friend is totally right: this is by a wide margin the most exhaustive investigation of the way of life and history of the persuasive yoga ancestry that keeps running from T. Krishnamacharya's damp and hot royal residence studio in Mysore to Bikram's misleadingly warmed studio in Hollywood.
