ashtanga yoga 2-3 hrs of practice?

[Guest guest]

Thanks chris, appreciate the input. I've never

claimed to be a yogi or practicing the 'right' way.

>From what I've read my personal goals from my Ashtanga

practice differ from what is traditional, and that's

fine-it's my practice. The benefits of prana, or life

force, that I can feel, coming from the asanas, is

enough to keep me going. I'd like to be straighter,

stronger and more flexible of course,and that's what I

work towards. Undoubtably there is calmness and

beauty about the practice too.

Namaste,

Lawrence.
