I want a book comparable to Brook Silers The Pilates Body book. This book has detailed step by step instructions, pictures, additional info, imagery tips, etc. I like to be self taught, and studious in learning techniques myself. So anyone have any good affordable ideas? I don't have time for videos, I need to work at my own pace. Thanks!!:sunshine

I think you might like a book called 30 Essential Yoga Poses by Judith Lasater. It goes into great detail for 30 basic yoga poses, and modifications for each one, so it's really more like 50 yoga poses. It has great color pics, and lots of suggested routines in the back. Routines for flexibility, each day of the week, strength, etc. It's a good book for beginning to build your own routine. Or another good one, with more background in yoga philosophy and breathing, etc, is Yoga Mastering the Basics. It's full of great black and white photos and a few suggested routines. They're both really great.

thanks!I'll check those out. :)
