This review is from: Yoga For Pregnancy Birth And Beyond (Paperback)
I'm a pre-natal yoga teacher, and I have many books on pregnancy yoga. This one is by far my favorite. The pictures are very detailed and well-done. Each pose is broken down step-by-step and has a photo to demonstrate the move. I also like that it is divided by early, mid, and late pregnancy. There is also a section on doing yoga with your baby after the birth.
This book will be the one I recommend to my students because it's simple, safe, and well-illustrated without being too Eastern in it's approach. It will suit the average American reader, while still staying true to the heart of yoga.

This review is from: Yoga For Pregnancy Birth And Beyond (Paperback)
While most yoga books seem to be heavy on advice for pregnant women and eager to teach Eastern principles, this book is not like that at all. I am a huge fan of the publisher "DK" because their books consistantly have great photography and clear instructions. This yoga book is perfect for beginner or intermediate yogaphiles who want pregnancy-appropriate yoga instruction without any heavy-handed advice, and the attractive layout and photography in the book adds to the appeal.

This book was exactly what I was looking for. It was informative but not dificult to understand. The pictures show exactly what you need to do. I liked that they were pictures of real pregnant women and not sketches.
