3. Functional Anatomy of Yoga by David Kell

4. Yoga Sequencing by Mark Stephens

Here are some other books that have really helped me integrate what i'm learning into my Yoga teaching and my own personal practice and self development

1. The Gift by Arun Gandhi

2. Good Vibes Good Life by Vex King

3. The Monk who sold his Ferrari by Robin Sharma

and finally an amazing books on the Breath which was a real learning curve!

1. Breath - The New Science of a Lost Art by James Nestor

I dip in and out of these books for many years, first reading them and going back so it sinks in and i can reflect on how it links into my teachings and my personal self development. There's a lot to learn but the key is to focus on aspects in each book and apply it to your life. experience it. live it. breathe it.
