Skill in Action

Kristen Boyle

This intermediate to advanced asana practice explores skills and drills to prepare you to work into the complex posture Vishvamitrasana. But the practice is about more than just the posture. In the Bhagavad Gita, Krishna explains to Arjuna, "Yoga is skill in action." The skill Krishna means is the skill of remaining anchored, rooted, and connected to Self, no matter what the circumstances. With this intelligently designed asana practice, you will explore this skill in action as you work toward a posture that may or may not be achieved. And yet, remembering that it is not about the pose itself, but how you remain anchored and rooted in Self along the way to the pose.
