Stability - Precision - Timing
The transition points from one asana to another, entering and exiting an asana, are, crucial observation points. At these points, we look for stability. Without the stability factor, we risk compounding the irregularities in our system and create obstacles to the flow of energy, speeding up the process of degeneration. Removing or lessening the obstacles promotes freedom from the restrictive habits of our bodies and minds, and allows the energy to flow freely and gracefully.
A Vinyasa Yoga practice with the precision, technique and understanding of Iyengar Yoga. The timing factor requires that all parts of the body move in synchronicity and that we become accountable for the movement of the breath. Vinyasa practice without the above considerations can increase the imbalances in our system, rather than rectify or manage them. The aim is to experience a state of Constant Integrated Awareness.
