Part Three delves into the art form of improvisation, discussing its principles, benefits, and applications, including exercises for both personal and business use.

Two of the most well-respected teachers of the Ashtanga style of yoga, Richard Freeman and Mary Taylor, explore this rigorous practice not as a gymnastic feat, but as a meditative form.

It also develops an adaptable, flexible practice that can last a lifetime. Freeman and T...
