Editorial Review:

Union is the essence of yoga, and joining in postures with another person can deepen one's understanding of the practice. An excellent tool for learning two-person yoga, Yoga for Partners features dozens of inspiring photos of the paired asanas. It teaches each partner how to synchronize their movements and breathing, bringing new lightness and enjoyment to any yoga practice. Following a brief introduction, 75 two-page spreads offer a full-page photo accompanied by positioning tips, a short commentary on the benefits of the posture, and advice on breathing techniques and proper focus. This stunning and stylish package, featured in a special lay-flat binding, offers a program that allows two yoga practitioners to strengthen their bodies and improve their technique together.

Oh boy...For professional reference only:

As a fitness professional and certified yoga teacher I would not recommend this book to practice with or take advice from. I actually warn my clients NOT to do some of the things they suggest (such as pushing on knees to get a deeper stretch) unless they are eager to injur themselves. Unless you are a professional and are able to sort through the exercises to determine which are safe and which are not, I would look elsewhere for advice on stretching and/or yoga.

Total Disappointment:

I bought this book as an Amazon suggestion to another book I was purchasing for my spouse as a gift. This book was an inexpensive "add-on" to what I was already buying (Contact Yoga) so I bought it. I was totally disappointed and if I can find the time I'm going to return this one.
My husband and I love to practice yoga and we've been wanting to find truly good books with more 'partner' yoga poses. This one touts 75 postures, but in reality it's only a few 'beginner' poses shown from various angles.more info

Sharing a Your Yoga Practice:

Very helpful information, this book explores several forms of sharing a yoga practice, from a very conservatve approach to a more intimate version. I would encourage anyone thinking of adding some partner yoga to their practice to look at this book. Beautifully exicuted and photographed!

Small, Handy and practical:

I havent read it completely - but so far so good. Love the size as I can take it to class when I teach. Also like the pictures and explanations. Would love if they recommended different sequencing for a 20 min to 1 hour partner yoga session. Don't know if they do since I havent read it thoroughly. Also, recommend any adjustments for different types of bodies and range of flexibility.
