While the explanations of the sequence and poses are helpful, Choudhury's personality makes this a difficult read. Even without knowing his personal history (allegations of sexual abuse/misconduct, sexism, racism, homophobia, etc), you can tell this smarmy guy isn't someone to be put on a pedestal nor someone I'd ever wish to share a room with, let a lone a yoga space.

That said, the sequence is one that I value and have found helpful to further my yoga practice. There are better ways to learn than from Choudhury though.

Very helpful book the I'll be adding to my library. The key and benefits to each posture were particularly enlightening. I'm looking forward to class later today, even more!
