YogaPoser

At YogaPoser, we constantly cue our students to observe each moment fully. From holistic choices that take into account the entirety of a person to the minute choices like, for example, where to put the little toe, we base what we each do on accurately seeing each moment. This practice is successful because each student does the work that is most effective for her or him. They hear and see and take action based on their unique experience. They do their own yoga. In a physical sense, which is where so many great practices start, this works better.

This technique of individualization also requires the student to participate in the process by being highly aware of what is at hand. In all yoga practices, what we are trying to get at is the “now.” We seek to experience the thing that happens when our actions are neither colored by outdated, inaccurate residual patterns of movement and thought nor propelled by projecting our desires and fears into the future.
