Author Vayu Jung Doohwa has developed his own unique methodology by which he “diagnoses” yoga practitioners into four postural groups—A, P, C, and N—and then “prescribes” adjustments to release and overcome the musculoskeletal imbalances relating to each one. These corrective methods use simple prompts in each pose to help restore the pelvis to neutral and improve spinal balance, limb alignment, and breath control.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Part I illustrates methods for identifying imbalances by observing how the lines and sections of the body act in a number of diagnostic yoga poses. Part II examines the four postural (body) types in greater detail by describing pelvic tilt, spinal curvature, breathing, and energy patterns. Part III presents the most effective strategies for restoring joint movement, counteracting imbalances of the core, and optimizing breathing for each body type. Also included is a quick-reference visual comparison of the four body types in 15 different yoga poses.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Brought to life using over 250 engaging color diagrams and photographs, this innovative, scientific interpretation of Ashtanga yoga is a vital resource for yoga practitioners of all levels!\u003ch4\u003eAudience\u003c\/h4\u003eYoga teachers, instructors, and practitioners.\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c!--end tabDescription--\u003e\u003cdiv id=\"tab-tableofcontents\" class=\"tab-content\"\u003e \u003ci\u003e\u003cb\u003ePart I.

Author Vayu Jung Doohwa has developed his own unique methodology by which he “diagnoses” yoga practitioners into four postural groups—A, P, C, and N—and then “prescribes” adjustments to release and overcome the musculoskeletal imbalances relating to each one. These corrective methods use simple prompts in each pose to help restore the pelvis to neutral and improve spinal balance, limb alignment, and breath control.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Part I illustrates methods for identifying imbalances by observing how the lines and sections of the body act in a number of diagnostic yoga poses. Part II examines the four postural (body) types in greater detail by describing pelvic tilt, spinal curvature, breathing, and energy patterns. Part III presents the most effective strategies for restoring joint movement, counteracting imbalances of the core, and optimizing breathing for each body type. Also included is a quick-reference visual comparison of the four body types in 15 different yoga poses.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Brought to life using over 250 engaging color diagrams and photographs, this innovative, scientific interpretation of Ashtanga yoga is a vital resource for yoga practitioners of all levels!\u003ch4\u003eAudience\u003c\/h4\u003eYoga teachers, instructors, and practitioners.\u003c\/div\u003e\u003c!--end tabDescription--\u003e\u003cdiv id=\"tab-tableofcontents\" class=\"tab-content\"\u003e \u003ci\u003e\u003cb\u003ePart I.
