​​An essential guide for all yoga practitioners to delve deeply into the tradition and practice authentically with appreciation, not appropriation.

Includes practical advice for embracing yogic values—such as service, non-harm, and truthfulness—in your daily life and relationships and for the well-being of others.

Popular yoga educator and advocate Susanna Barkataki invites yoga practitioners to become stewards of the tradition—bold and effective trailblazers for embodying the roots of yoga. She gives you the knowledge, tools, and language to respectfully and responsibly hold and participate in class and more effectively embody yogic values. Each chapter is full of step-by-step instructions, stories, practical advice, practices, and contemplations and covers the following:

The issues with modern yoga in the West today

Best practices for yoga leadership

Learning what equity is in yoga

How and when to use Sanskrit

Integrating yoga ethics into your yoga practice, relationships, and work

While mainstream yoga culture explodes, the teachings have often strayed far from yoga’s traditional roots. The result is a watered-down, often inaccurate or incomplete practice that doesn’t responsibly reflect the rich and powerful tradition. Ignite Your Yoga is an essential guide for all yoga practitioners to delve deeply into the tradition and practice and teach authentically with appreciation, not appropriation.

Susanna Barkataki is a yoga diversity and unity educator, a mindfulness leader, and the founder of Ignite Yoga & Wellness Institute.
