Advanced Asana Part 1: What's the Point? with Lily Dwyer Begg


Listen Later

Most people view "advanced asana" as a flashy, performance-based practice driven by natural talent and aesthetics. This common misconception can lead people to dismiss asana as just preparation for real yoga or treat it as a casual activity that everyone can do equally. In this episode, we explore what it means to advance as an asana practitioner and the benefits of a consistent and systematic approach.


EPISODE HIGHLIGHTS:
02:15 Defining Advanced Asana
08:33 Challenge vs. Intensity in Practice
16:22 The Role of Asana in a Sedentary Culture
19:50 Why Basic Postures can be Harder than Advanced Postures
26:27 Do Mirrors and Cameras Have a Place in Asana Practice?
32:11 The Role of Home Practice and Opportunities Online
