So you’ve been doing yoga for how long now? And admit it: you have questions beyond the poses and pose sequences you’ve seen in yoga books (yawn), biographies of gurus and sages (double yawn), and yoga philosophy (triple yawn). You have real questions.Questions like, how much flexibility do I need to be enlightened? And how long does it take to get there—the flexibility, that is, because that’s easier to show off to my family than enlightenment? Your teacher is telling you to breathe deeply and to turn off your mind chatter,but all you can think is, how can she remember the sequence of poses that you do on the right side and then on the left side? Or how come some teachers adjust you all the time and others never at all? Do they ever get the hots for their students? Do they have vices? Are they always this mellow or can they actually get mad and drop an F-bomb or two? If you’ve ever wanted to know the answers to these and other questions that you dare not ask,you’ve come to the right place. Armed with two decades of experience with yoga, Ricardo das Neves is ready to spill the beans on what things look like from his side of the yoga mat. But warning: read this book, and you might find yourself giggling in class at the most inconvenient times.
