By synchronizing traditional yoga poses with deep breathing, a powerful inner fire is created which cleanses the tissues of the body, tones the muscles, quiets the mind and leave you prepared to face the business of life with clarity and ease.

Sanskrit Term of the Month
Pada
Sanskrit pada is a cognate with Latin ped, which we see pop up in english quite often. For example pedestrians, centipede, etc, are all examples of ped. Pada, unsurprisingly, means foot/leg in Sanskrit. We see this pada in pose names such as padahastāsana (foot-to-hand pose, a forward fold) or eka pada bakāsana (one leg crane pose).
