| HOWARD NAPPER and Penny Smith
Howard's 'Essential' and 'Masterclass' yoga DVDs are terrific - because when it comes to teaching through this medium it needs a special class of personality, communications skills and clarity to help the student really get to grips and understand the intricacies of the posture work, on a physical as well as mental level. He does this with precision.
For both the beginner and those who already practice yoga, these two yoga DVDs are very worthwhile.
Penny Smith is his medium for conveying what he teaches and the demonstration of the posture work and how to maximise the benefits of the yoga positions.

In 1973 David met David Williams and Nancy Gilgoff in California and his Ashtanga practice took off from there.
When in 1975 K. Pattabhi Jois came to the States for the first time Swenson was fortunate enough to be there. He began to study under the master then and in '77 went to Mysore, India and learnt the full Ashtanga system as originally taught by K.Pattabhi Jois.
