for the yoga enthusiatist

The Holistic Atelier Yoga Asanas Card Deck is a fantastic resource for both yoga teachers and casual practitioners alike. With 70 beautifully illustrated cards, it provides an extensive library of Hatha yoga poses, including 59 distinct asanas, making it an invaluable tool for enhancing your practice. Each card features clear teaching cues, benefits, modifications, and contraindications, which are incredibly helpful for anyone looking to deepen their understanding of yoga.The deck also includes six themed sequences that provide structure and variety, allowing you to easily tailor your practice according to your needs and preferences. I particularly love the colour-coded categorization that helps users quickly identify different types of poses - whether it’s warm-ups, standing poses, balancing, or restorative. This thoughtful organisation makes it easy for beginners and intermediate practitioners to navigate the cards and find the perfect poses for their current energy levels.The sun and moon classification on each card is another thoughtful touch, allowing users to select poses that either energise or calm them, depending on their mood or time of day. This makes it easier to create a personalised practice that suits individual needs.

These are very informative cards. Incorporating both images and text, which are clear, concise, and with a well thought out layout.As well as instructing how to perform each exercise; benefits to doing it, modifications which can be made to make adjustments, and contraindications are stated. The 59 poses are numerically numbered, named, and have a level rating associated with them. For the breathing exercises, these are labelled A to C. There is only name labelling for the 6 sequence cards, of which two are salutations.The card deck is housed inside a sturdy box. Both arrive shrinkwrapped. Which works well to protect the cards.Currently the set is a little larger than a standard pack of playing cards. I do think the product would be better if the cards were larger. The font size could be increased making them easier to read and glance at from a distance. Granted there are drawbacks from doing this. Such as the pack taking up more space and weighing more. A larger print size will suit a wider range of people.At the time of review the product is being sold for £28. Although this is a fairly high quality product, it seems expensive. The cards aren't so thick in structure and I think far more will sell if the product is priced at around £15-£20.

The advertising on these cards been airbrushed out. They are in fact PRINTED IN CHINA. I spent a long time looking to see where they were made but couldn't see it anywhere. But when they arrived I could clearly see that it had been airbrushed out that's why I've taken the photo so you can see the difference between the advertising and what you actually get. The seller is misleading people by airbrushing out PRINTED IN CHINA.

The cards themselves are beautifully designed, with clear illustrations and concise instructions. Each card provides helpful teaching cues, benefits, and modifications, making it easy to guide students safely and effectively through each pose.The inclusion of sun and moon classifications allows me to tailor sequences to specific energy levels and moods, creating a more personalized experience for my students. But even as a casual practitioner, I've found this deck incredibly valuable. It's a great way to break out of a rut and try new poses or sequences. I often use it to create personalized flows, choosing cards based on how I'm feeling or what areas of my body I want to focus on.The card deck's compact size makes it easy to take on the go, whether I'm travelling or simply heading to the park for an outdoor practice. It's become a constant source of inspiration and guidance, enriching my yoga practice in countless ways.

Holistic Atelier Yoga Card Deck: Having tried to perfect yoga moves and mindful breathing exercises from books, on-line instruction and the television, I find these cards so much easier to both handle and follow. The deck of cards (70 in all) act as an instructive guide and give a little context to the action it describes.The cards themselves are categorised into levels, with colour coding to ensure you can maintain the order even if you’re rifling through them a bit. I particularly like that there is a recognition that sometimes an individual will need to adapt moves to work for them and they provide some guidance on this. I really like the breathing exercises that sit alongside the movements as they definitely aid relaxation. I’ve never had the confidence to attend a class but these cards have given me the nudge I need and I’m going next week!The cards are good quality and easy to follow, I’d say they’re a must for anyone already skilled or just interested in learning yoga and won’t break the bank at £28.

As a yoga novice I am really happy with this set. I have been wanting to give yoga a try for a while and these are perfect to assist me in learning the breathing and positions in the comfort of my own home. I love how the cards are double sided and give you key pointers and more of an in depth description. I also really like how the cards are separated into movements best for morning/day time and relaxing in the evening. These may even give me the confidence to join a local yoga class in the near future.

I've recently started yoga just to try and stay a bit more flexible and relaxed and this card set is ideal for me. Just a bit larger than a playing card, 8cm wide by 11cm high, each card is colour coded allowing easy sorting for warm-ups, standing, balancing poses etc. There is added information for each pose showing the benefits and modifications and contraindications and also whether the pose is energizing or calming. This allows you to easily make a custom lesson for yourself which suits me perfectly.
