Explore the physiology of 30 key yoga poses, in-depth and from every angle, and master each asana with confidence and control.

With insight into variations on the poses and a Q&A section that explores the science behind every aspect of yoga, look no further than Science of Yoga to achieve technical excellence in your practice and optimise the benefits of yoga to your body and mind.
