This is an excellent book for a dedicated student of yoga, or a training yoga teacher. The guide speaks clearly, and it is easy to follow.
Beginners BewareJanuary 29, 2008 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
I should have read more about this book before ordering. It's just what it says it is. I ended up giving it to a woman who is studying to become a yoga instructor. It's not something a beginner would really need to have in my opinion. It just tells you how to say and read the sanskrit words. It's not the book's fault that I didn't know what it was! :) It's probably excellent for those looking for this type of reference. It doesn't tell you HOW to do the postures, or anything like that.

Good reference material for sanskrit. The accompanying audio CDs with the pronunciations are a great learning aid to reinforce the written material.
interesting & intriguingNovember 5, 2007 I've often wondered what the sanckrit word mean or sound like. This looks like it will answer everything, yeah!
