Benefits of Becoming an Asana Warrior

There are many misconceptions on what yoga is and particularly who it is for. You do not need to be flexible and strong to practice yoga, just a willingness to try and explore potential... Yoga does not discriminate with regards to age, gender or ability, yoga can be adapted to help the individual and it goes without saying that regular practice can improve flexibility and strength.

Yoga is a tool for life, equipping and empowering us to deal with everyday challenges. It gives us a greater awareness of our bodies and minds, a unification. It provides an opportunity to disconnect, very rare in this modern age and ultimately it can make you happier and healthier.

Both eastern and western health care practitioners recognise Hatha Yoga as a powerful practice that can reduce stress and decrease the likelihood of developing stress related illnesses.

Regular Yoga practice can:

• Improve mental clarity and focus

• Balance the nervous system
• Reduce blood pressure
• Alleviate depression and anxiety
• Enhance your wellbeing
• Relax your body and mind
• Reduce aches and pains
• Increase flexibility and range of movement
• Improve strength and balance
