From the view of the ancient tradition, “Yoga” means more than being able to perform beautiful poses or achieving superb flexibility. It means more than being able to sit quietly in meditation. It even means more than having a pain-free body or a stress-free mind. All of the above may be desirable, but there is only one true barometer for accomplishment in yoga: the quality of your life. The quality of your yoga is measured by the quality of your life.
In ParaYoga, we teach that you can vary what and how you practice to affect potential outcomes of practice. In the hands of skillful teacher, you experience practices that address your specific needs–the ones that lead you to greater fulfillment and freedom, or increased creative capacity, or joy, or even fearlessness.
