The intention behind the movement and how you move is an important aspect and will leave the practitioner with a different out of body experience. The body flows and so does the prana.

Yoga philosophy

Yoga anatomy

Anatomy classes expose the internal body and how are works with bones, joints and inner systems which affect how an asana is performed. The basic structure and function of the organs, system and how yoga affects our body is an important aspect for students to know. Gaining knowledge about the joints and their range of motions helps students to be safe from injuries.
