David Moore draws on thirty years of teaching to bring fresh and
practical insights into how the Alexander Technique can contribute to a
safer and more effective yoga practice. With a wealth of illustrations
that support the clear, precise explanations, this book offers
comprehensive advice in modifying a yoga practice to take into account
the huge variability in individual ranges of movement. Moore includes
techniques to accommodate limitations imposed by injuries, structure,
body type, strength, and flexibility. Smart Yoga offers an explanation
of the Alexander Technique's approach to posture and movement,
suggestions for altering faulty breathing patterns, and information
about how Hatha Yoga, Patanjali, and Buddhist insight practices relate
to the Alexander Technique.
