"Ordered this book for a Yoga Fit class certification as "required" reading prior to class. I'm glad it's a recommended read- the pictures are great and the descriptions and break downs of each pose is what's needed as a beginning yoga instructor. Very professionally done and will be taking more classes and ordering more books from this company. FYI - the book is cheaper on Amazon than buying directly from the Yoga Fit website."

•   I'd signed up for a yoga class while recovering from a running injury and was amazed at what a change it made in my body. Now I rely on Beth Shaw's YogaFit while exercising at home. This is a very accessible, non-intimidating book with clear, full-color photography which is ideal for people like me who might not otherwise consider themselves the yoga type. I especially appreciate the focus on sports and have even shared these routines with friends. There are plans geared toward a variety of athletic pursuits including weightlifting, basketball, baseball/softball, volleyball, running, cycling, swimming, golf, tennis, skiing/snowboarding, and kickboxing/boxing. I've even got my kid interested in it. This is a great book to help improve your overall flexibility and strength. Whether you're an athlete, fitness enthusiast, or an office worker seeking relief from all those hours stuck in a chair, this is the book for you!
• Arrived promptly and in good condition. The last edition I bought was the first and the improvements are obvious by this third edition. With glossy pages and color prints, the third edition provides the yogi with descriptions of YogaFit poses and symbols that indicate their appropriate place in the YogaFit routine (hill, valley, or mountain). This text also dedicates considerable space to sport-specific routines and highlights modifications with blocks. This text is useful for either instructor or fitness enthusiast.
• I found it gimmicky, the author is making money by trying to commercialize the art of Hatha Yoga which was created long before her company was around. There is no need to register an ancient exercise regimen as yoga as a trademark and then come out with a new book to sell more copies. What's worse, the spiritual and cultural elements of the art of yoga have been stripped from the author's format. I've practiced for over 30 years. I tried the Yogafit instructor program and while the people who do it are nice, it's just a business empire based on a dumbed down version of yoga. It is not bad, but lacks the depth of real Hatha, like eating fast food instead of a real meal. If you ask a Yogafit instructor what is dandasana, one of the most fundamental postures in all of Yoga, for example, you'll get a nervous and blank stare because the training just doesn't go deep enough.
• I originally purchased this book in its form so I could more easily access it when I'm out and have a few minutes to read and prepare. While it does serve that purpose, I ultimately purchased a second copy in paperback form. The layout of the pages with the poses with all the muscle and cuing breakdowns is so well down in the actual book and just doesn't translate in the version. My only wish is that there were a spiral version so that it could lay flat for easier access when trying to follow the vinyasa flows set up at the end. Great book and great introduction to a more intensive personal yoga practice whether or not you are interested in becoming a YogaFit teacher.
• This is really helping me plan my yoga classes. It also includes preplanned classes in the back of the book. Good asana illustrations and descriptions and when each pose is best integrated into a class.
• Ordered this book for a Yoga Fit class certification as "required" reading prior to class. I'm glad it's a recommended read- the pictures are great and the descriptions and break downs of each pose is what's needed as a beginning yoga instructor. Very professionally done and will be taking more classes and ordering more books from this company. FYI - the book is cheaper on than buying directly from the Yoga Fit website.
• I'm getting prepared to take the Level 1 certification for YogaFit - and this book is very helpful, insightful and extremely informative about yoga! I really admire Beth Shaw and feel very inspired from her success. The best part about this book was all the references she gave to further reading about how to teach yoga and making the mind and body connection. Excellent book!
• This was part of the curriculum for yoga certification and it has been a lifesaver. Its basic and excellent resource to learn how to teach yoga poses with proper alignment and cues. Still learning in my journey as a yogi, but would recommend to start.
