My friend is a Yoga instructor, and he's looking for a site that gives audio files of asanas in Sanskrit. If anyone has any links, I'd appreciate it.
 
AA, if i'm not mistaken (which i probably am), i think the symbols by the bolster on a villager is the sanskrit version of the roman letters on the standard models. I think I remember someone saying that the symbols at the bend of the khuk on a standard model are sanskrit for "H.I." and on the villager models they mean "B.G." for BirGorka. Anyone else know if that is right?

try this book Yoga: The Iyengar Way for pronunciation of the asana names - other than that, i would find a general book/cd/cassette on sanskrit pronunciation in general (overall, if one goes by the roman transliteration, it's roughly like italian pronunciation):.
