WE ALL KNOW THE POSITIVE effectsyoga can have our
physical and mental health. And we love it because
it’s one form of exercise that doesn’t discriminate –
anyone can do yoga, from young to wise! But what if
we thought about each individual’s body during their
practice? What if we thought about their injuries,
medical status and goals in coming to yoga? The
exercises we pick and the sequence that we teach
them in can have a profound impact on our bodies.

Understanding anatomy and


physiology can be overwhelming


for yoga students and teachers,


but it’s essential to avoid injury


and ensure you’re getting the


most our of your practice.
