Di Ankh: The Science Of Kemetic Yoga.

Some of the earliest depictions of yoga positions and their meanings are hidden in plain sight on the temple walls in ancient Egypt (Kemet) in North Africa. Di Ankh: The Science of Kemetic Yoga is a provocative exploration pivoting one’s focus to the little known origins of the practice of yoga as physical and spiritual modalities deeply rooted in the ancient African region called Kemet and Kush.
Di Ankh: The Science of Kemetic Yoga highlights alchemists, scholars, scientists, educators, healers, practitioners, students and master teachers through engaging interviews and personal testimonies.
