Home practice

A great new DVD is available to buy now from Anna Ashby. Anna Ashby is one of my teachers and I studied for my teaching diploma with her at Triyoga, London. She is incredibly grounded and this DVD helps students to practice safely at home with a 40-minute practice. The practice takes you through a carefully sequenced set of asanas that work the whole body and after a few runs through you should be practicing without realising you're even being guided by a DVD. Her verbal instructions are very precise and make it easy to not always be watching the screen to know what to do next. This means that, unlike other DVD's, you can immerse yourself in the practice, which is essentially what we want.

Also, accompanying the practice DVD is a guided meditation, a guide to terminology which is great for beginners as it covers some of the basics such as tailbone action, grounding of the hands etc, and a second disc which is for use in your computer and takes each of the asanas and allows you to study them in more detail with a 3D version of Anna and a guided run through of the posture with Anna and a student.

I would definitely recommend this to my students. I was given a copy for my birthday as well, living in Stroud I don't get to go to Anna's classes any more so this is the next best thing!
