Forms of yoga (power, therapy, etc)

Why you chose this asana & a bit about it from "the heart" as well as a how-to on it.

I am not photogenic, and I wonder, maybe you have a section of "how not to"-s.
I can make a perfect example of wrong asana practice !

maybe I am wrong but would a true yogi call him/her self a yogi?
if you are a true yogi you should already have enough knowledge from your studies to write a book, no?
thousands of books already out there that lack true insight into what yoga really is, dont need another one

Perhaps you misunderstood.

First, I call myself a yogi as this is a part of me, not to profess greatness. Not even the highest yogi's would profess great knowledge; that would be selfish, self-centered and extremely limiting.

Secondly, the book is written, and already contracted. I am giving others a chance to share their own knowledge, promote themselves and bring people who love yoga together in more ways than forums and yoga seminars.
I've had others who have contributed who have understood well & have been emailing and contributing-so I don't think it was a communication problem on my end, but if so, I do apologize.

I won't be checking in here anymore as I'm a bit busy with emails now - but thank you so much for being an incredible teacher in patience this long day!
