Ashtanga Yoga is a popular and athletic type of yoga developed by Sri K. Pattabhi Jois, one of the great modern gurus.
Kino MacGregor is one of only fourteen people-and the youngest woman-in the United States to receive certification to teach Ashtanga Yoga from its founder Sri K. Pattabhi Jois. She has an international following of her own, and a busy schedule of teaching gigs at seminars and yoga conferences worldwide. She is a life coach and has a Master's Degree from New York University. MacGregor and her husband, Tim Feldmann, are the founders of the Miami Life Center (www.miamilifecenter.com), where they teach daily classes, workshops, and intensives together. MacGregor was featured in Yoga Journal as one of the top twenty-one rising stars of yoga. Her website is www.kinoyoga.com.
“The Power of Ashtanga Yoga accomplishes something fantastic . . .
Kino manages to incorporate everything you ever wanted to know from
a yogi. She seamlessly incorporates personal experiences, useful
gems of wisdom, and detailed technical knowledge of the
practice.”
—Huffington Post
“Kino MacGregor is a dedicated student and teacher of Ashtanga Yoga
and she has wonderfully shared her insights, thoughts, and guidance
in this book.”
—David Swenson, author of Ashtanga Yoga: The Practice Manual
“I highly recommend The Power of Ashtanga Yoga. Not only is it
chock-full of practical advice and tips for the beginner and for
those with injuries or obstacles, it also treats asana practice as
a fine contemplative art by its emphasis on smooth, focused
movement in and out of the postures in synch with the breath. Its
presentation of the subtle and deeper aspects of yoga is clear and
accessible, making this book useful for all types of
practitioners.”
—Richard Freeman, author of The Mirror of Yoga
“Kino MacGregor is gifted not only as a practitioner of asana but
also as a writer and portrayer of the deeper aspects of yoga. She
easily traverses such diverse terrains as spirituality, scripture,
health, relationships, anatomy, and of course postural alignment
and technique.”
—Gregor Maehle, author of Ashtanga Yoga: Practice and Philosophy
and Pranayama: The Breath of Yoga
“An excellent, well-researched book that explores the
philosophical, spiritual, and physical dimensions of Ashtanga Yoga
in a way that is informative, inspirational, non-dogmatic, and easy
to understand.”
—Tim Miller, Director of the Ashtanga Yoga Center, Encinitas,
California
“In this marvelous book, Kino MacGregor shows us why she is so
highly esteemed worldwide among Yoga teachers. She is not
only a miraculously proficient practitioner, but also a
skilled and compassionate teacher who knows the heart and essence
of Yoga as a spiritual path leading to enlightenment.”
—Jack Forem, author of Transcendental Meditation
“Anyone with an interest in yoga—from a bookstore browser to a
dedicated practitioner—will find something to engage their mind,
open their heart, and nourish their spirit in The Power of Ashtanga
Yoga. Inspirational, heartfelt, and practical, it is an invaluable
roadmap to your infinite potential.”
