Mission Statement

In this section we will go into the dynamics of the yoga workout. The lessons we have learnt from harnessing all of the good things that various yoga styles have to offer.

The following dynamics we have borrowed from the asatanga/power yoga philosolphies.

1. You have to be hot to stretch.
2. Strength, not gravity, develops flexibility.
3. Sports do not get us in shape. In fact, sports get us out of shape.
4. All injury in sports is caused by structural and muscular imbalance.
5. Muscular imbalance and structural irregularities don't fix themselves.
6. Even iron will bend if you heat it up.
7. Stopping training doesn't correct an imbalance.
8. No matter how fit you are at what you do, when you start something new you have to ease into it.
9. Stretching doesn't equal warm-up.
