"The experimental and creative abilities of both Krishnamacharya and Iyengar are very much overlooked." <br><br>"true yoga is found not in the texts but in the heart of the practitioner."<br><br>The fact that yoga once was experimental and creative brings me great joy. As someone who opens her arms wide to change and innovation, that statement has made me happier in my practice.<br><br>So once apon a time, the gurus were flexible in mind as well as body... <br><br>Makes all the dogma look like a dog's arse.
