Manage episode 363020747 series 2316522
Let’s talk about alignment. Some teachers center their entire teaching technique around alignment, while others argue that it does more harm than good and that students should be encouraged to explore asanas in a more open-ended way. In this episode, Mado shares how her own relationship to the concept of alignment has evolved over the past 20 years and her thoughts about how alignment can be both useful and potentially harmful.
EPISODE HIGHLIGHTS:
- Mado’s personal experience with alignment
- Definitions of alignment and how they have led to confusion in the yoga world.
- Common claims that yoga teachers make about alignment - and where they go wrong.
- How alignment might help prevent injury - and how it might contribute to injuries.
- The relationship between alignment and stress.
