Each month I intend to focus on one pose  (i.e. a new pose for each month) with one or two documents relating to the pose being posted for the whole month . In addition, each week I will post a different short (10 min) yoga session based around a version of the pose for the month.

I would like to choose poses on the basis of what website users would find interesting / useful. I would also like to develop sets of documents on poses, exploring them from different perspectives (e.g. muscles involved, possible benefits, issues and solutions) - so, again, please let me know the sort of thing that would be of interest to you.

To illustrate the exercises, I have chosen to use a highly stylised ('stickman') representation of the human body. This allows one to emphasise the key features of a pose.  The diagrams should however always be interpreted in the context of the associated text.

                                                *                *                *                *                *                *

The 10 minute yoga sessions are intended to be aids and encouragement for home yoga practice - that is, to supplement going to yoga classes. It is also hoped that they will be of use to yoga teachers, either as a source of ideas or as handouts that can be printed off and photocopied for one's students.

Please feel free to print, and give out, copies of these sessions as you think would be useful (but note the suggested use of the 'Only the selected frame' option within the 'Print' or 'Print Preview' options!). I do however have two requests. One is that you make sure that those you give copies of the session to are aware of the appropriate precautions and prohibitions. The other is that you leave information on the sheets about its source (i.e. the website) so that the receivers of the handout can, if they so wish, explore the website for themselves and, if relevant, contact me with queries.

                                                *                *                *                *                *                *


In time, as the site evolves, I hope that I will be able to develop the site to share ideas on other aspects of yoga.  If there are aspects of yoga you would particularly like me to start exploring on the website please let me know.
