Yoga is NOT Stretching

– The MOVEMENT Movement with Steven Sashen Episode 208 with Yogi Aaron

Yogi Aaron is a trailblazing yoga teacher who is leading a global rebellion against the harmful practice of stretching. He pioneered the groundbreaking approach to yoga that shows people how to live pain-free by activating muscles through Applied Yoga Anatomy + Muscle Activation™ (AYAMA). 

In a world where conventional stretching and flexibility practices are the prescribed norm for pain, Yogi Aaron's unorthodox method provides a safer and more effective permanent solution — and it isn't being taught by anyone else! 

Whether at his scenic Blue Osa Yoga Retreat in Costa Rica or through his online AYAMA™ Certification Program and The Yogi Club, Yogi Aaron is dedicated to teaching students worldwide to break free from pain and unlock their full potential and life purpose.

What sets him apart is his wisdom, infectious humor, adventurous spirit, and personal healing journey, which distinguish him as a beloved leader in the yoga community.

Listen to this episode of The MOVEMENT Movement with Yogi Aaron about how yoga isn't stretching.

Here are some of the beneficial topics covered on this week's show:

- How the Muscle Activation Technique is a way to address muscle-related problems.

- How yoga postures have evolved over time, and their original purpose may differ fro today's practice.

- Why there is a misconception that yoga postures are primarily preparing the body for meditation.

- Why mastering comfort and stability in yoga postures can lead to a deeper understanding of life and decision-making.

- How different yoga postures can impact the nervous system and energy levels.
