Yoga Toolbox for Teachers and Students, 3rd Edition Ring-bound – June 6, 2015

Yoga, like any exploration of self, will be a lifelong journey. You don’t have to travel that road alone. Studio classes are the most popular way to access the teachings. This toolkit is an excellent additional resource for yogis who want to connect to this practice through dedicated study. I’m using this toolkit to prepare for my January 2019 teacher training, to strengthen my already-acquired skills, and to open myself to new ways of thinking about yoga.The authors, Joseph and Lilian Le Page, have created a really intense and comprehensive manual. Yet, they’ve presented it in a highly accessible format for all levels of learners. Like the practice of yoga itself, you can bring and draw as much as you want from this work. The Le Pages make it an attractive process with color-coded chapters – poses are presented from cool to hot with elements and systems illustrated within each – and clear, direct language providing background and instruction.The information is there; you provide the energy, commitment, attention and time to understand, develop, and manifest the lessons. The Yoga Toolkit is so rich and varied that I find myself rereading portions just for the sheer joy of revisiting the feeling of having this wealth of knowledge. If you want to deepen your understanding – or simply explore different levels of learning – this is an essential guide for your yoga journey.

I bought this in 2020 and it was for 65.00. I will say that I love this book as the pages are laminated and I think its an excellent tool for new yogis getting out of training. It breaks down each pose and what chakra correlates with each pose, what type of energy effects the pose. It dabbles just enough with ayurveda that its a pretty well-rounded book. However, this price of 450 is insane. I would not recommend spending that amount on this book. Its all information that HOPEFULLY was taught to you in training. I would use this only as a tool.

It’s rare to find a resource that is comprehensive while totally approachable, beautiful, practical, well organized and guides you through to multiple approaches to practice. This, plus a yoga anatomy book, would have been all I needed to learning asana for 200hr training. This is an amazing compilation of “cliff notes” + deep dive into asana + energetic systems that is clear and well-integrated.

This is an awesome tool to have at yoga teacher training. This book and it had so much rich info inside. Loved how each pose was described, given alternative poses, what chakras were affected etc. Loved it. The only issue was that a few names were different than what is used in the yoga studio. Warrior 1,2 and 3 were called Hero poses but hero pose is another pose by itself. That was the only issue.

My wife teaches Yoga and I bought this for her as a surprise hoping she would find it useful in her development as a Yoga instructor. She was absolutely thrilled with it! The incredibly comprehensive content, the quality of the product and the laminated page format made it extremely valuable and useful for her. She is the Yoga expert and very discerning with respect to Yoga products and so when she was so happy with it, it told me that this product was a real winner.

This is an amazing compilation and simplification of the analysis of human energy systems explored in Patanjali's Yoga Sutras. The presentation on heavy polished almost card-stock paper lends an air of durability that really fits the profundity of the subject. Any yoga enthusiast will be thrilled. This is a must-have reference text.

This toolbox is AMAZING; however it was defective upon receipt. The top binder ring doesn’t close all the way and the first 10 pages were loosely inserted and not secured in the rings. Other than that I highly recommend this kit. It’s better than what I expected. Very informative, nicely written and organized, and the illustrations are really impressive.

I love this book it is very informative, has great cards, with pictures diagrams and also tells even the novice of teacher how to structure a class and which poses work the best. Thank you so much for this tool I LOVE IT

Parfait! Le meilleur outils pour un prof de yoga! Ce manuel est complet acheté le les yeux fermés les amis.

Absolutely love my “yoga Toolbox”, so beautifully laid out, great quality cards.
