Yoga is both philosophy and science.  It is not a religion.  The philosophy and science are not only intertwined and inseparable, they also reinforce each other.  The philosophy emphasizes the existence of the Self within.  The science is the method that verifies this doctrine by setting out certain kinds of disciplines, certain techniques and practices that enable the emergence  of our authentic self. 

The way to transform what you believe about yourself is to unlearn what you have already learned.  Yoga is a remarkable unlearning process.  When you unlearn your negative thought systems, emotional patterns and all the reasons you reject yourself, your faith returns to you, your personal power increases and you can invest your faith in new beliefs, returning to your own naturalness and your authentic self.  Yoga is ultimately a journey into truth; truth about who you really are, what you are capable of and how your actions affect your life.

Everyone can do yoga.  You simply start where you are with whatever level of ability you have and from there, the sky's the limit.  The only part of your body that needs to be flexible is your mind, everything else comes with time.  Yoga is global training.  It embodies strength, flexibility, stamina, cardio and mind power all in one session.  The results from yoga are immediate.  From your very first yoga class, you'll experience shifts energetically, muscularly, mentally and emotionally.  Your mind will become clear, your spirit revived; you'll feel alive!

Yoga is meant to be a physical practice.  Authentic hatha yoga, as it is taught in India, is a physical practice that enables us to strengthen and free the body so that we may use it for greater purposes.  Real health means wholeness on all levels and a deep and true connection to what is most sacred; the truth within our hearts.  In the end, yoga is not a magic cure-all, but the way it challenges our bodies, moves our stuck emotional energy, clears our mind and inspires us to seek and live in truth can be a catalyst for amazing growth.  Yoga isn't about competition or comparison, but rather it is about pushing yourself beyond your current abilities and moving past the limited definitions of yourself.
