About Sayujya Yoga
Align the body….To Align the breath and mind.”
Team Sayujya Yoga believes in the above principle and specifically likes to focus on Alignment based Yoga practices which are aimed at engaging the muscles and protecting the joints by understanding the concepts of Compression and Muscle Tension.
One needs to be aware of his or her body limitations and practice Asanas accordingly. Only then is the definition of Asanas i.e. sthira-sukham-āsanam can be applied practically on the mat. There is no point in remaining in discomfort in Asanas; as it will not benefit and in the long run can lead to injury.
