Read this book and find an authorized or certified teacher of Ashtanga yoga from Sharath Yoga Centre and you will transform yourself and have good health.

This book mainly contains photos and basic descriptions of the asanas and a small amount of information about the eight limbs of Ashtanga, of which asana, or postures, are only one limb.

This is a practical guide to Ashtanga yoga by Paramaguru Sharath Jois, the grandson of the founder of Ashtanga yoga. He attracted thousands of student to his yoga shala in Mysore, India, who would return year after year for training.

Sharath Jois was often quoted as saying “Anyone can do Ashtanga - the young, old, sick, people with physical challenges - anyone.”

Existen muchos libros de práctica de yoga y en Ashtanga tras el Yoga Mala de Pattabhi Jois estaría todo contado ya, pero para mí este libro es el más cómodo de consulta.
Contiene la información de las 8 ramas del Ashtanga y información sobre la realización de los asanas de la primera serie sin ninguna floritura adicional, información concisa y escueta. Esto puede hacer de más difícil acceso la información, pero si ya se conoce agiliza la consulta.
Además contiene una versión de los mantra muy útil.
A nivel de realización de posturas y conocer efectos me gustó más Luz sobre el Yoga de Iyengar, pero a nivel de secuencia al tratarse este de Ashtanga me ha sido de mayor utilidad.

Tómese como guía práctica y rápida en una práctica.

Lower quality book (build quality) as most of Sharath's merchandise.

Very sparse book describing the vinyasa counts for the primary series with some ancillary information.

Perfect minimalistic summary of the Primary Series somehow covering it all in under 100 pages
