Yoga is a whole practice. 

Every muscle, joint, and ligament are part of the whole body system. When the range of motion of one joint increased it affects the entire system, and vice versa. Ultimately, the body will go where the mind leads it to. The best starting point is to have an inspired, focusing, committed mind, with an attitude of wanting to balance the body.


An open, flexible mind is the beginning to a healthy yoga journey. 

Many seekers of yogic study want to see quick changes, and fast results. The reality is that on a physical level, stretching and committing to improve. There is NO instant gratification, but positive results become evident over time when one is PATIENT and PERSISTANT, maintaining a regular asana program.

Body postural alignment is a crucial component of asana practice. In our material world all machines require that hte composite parts are in alignment with one anther in order to function properly.

The body joints function best when they remain within their given range of motion, the muscles surrounding the joints provide balanced tension maintaining alignment both at the joint, and between the joints. Loss of mechanical alignment at the joint level or at a compensating joint can lead to extreme wear, tear, and pain.

Most of us look at hte body through a very narrow scope, focusing on the 'tree' instead of the 'forest'. In regards to localized joint imbalance or injury, an attitude of specialization is far too common.
