Tanja Saban
The body in the practice of yoga asana is the entry & grounding point to the deep knowledge, wisdom and joy of being. yoga is a process of self-inquiry while asana describes the practice of a physical posture with attunement to all layers of the self. The form of asana reflects to us aspects of our individual structure, on how we come into alignment with and through our breath, our feelings and thoughts. Breath awareness is what integrates and connects us to our sensory body, feelings and the subtler layers of our being. I teach alignment as a dynamic process of becoming aware of sensations while directing attention with clarity. The intention is to guide our efforts along the body's innate spirallic architecture which allows us to find organic strength, flexibility and connectivity throughout our entire body.
