About Asana Guide: Strength, Flexibility & Posture

I often tell my students that you do not need fancy equipment to build core strength or fix your posture; you simply need to understand the mechanics of your own body. Many people struggle with these asanas because they try to force their way into the final pose instead of using the preparatory movements that actually align the spine and hips. Our guidance helps you modify these postures based on what your body can handle today.
