Introduction.

Yoga was a gift from Vandus Karavali to her students.

It's a gift from you to your body.

Every body is different.

Every body is different.

Whatever body type you are,

However experienced or not you are,

Whatever physical issues you have,

This yoga is for you.

Nobody can know your body better than you.

This yoga will give you tools to enable you to become more aware of what your body needs,

What your body likes.

Discover how your body responds when you do things it enjoys.

Look with your body,

Not against it,

Not attacking it,

Not trying to control it.

And allow your breath,

With the help of gravity,

To release tension and stress.

And remember,

If it hurts,

It's wrong.

This material is offered with great humility.

I can't acknowledge sufficiently the debt I owe to my teachers,

Especially Sophie Hoare and Diane Long,

But also to the many people without whom this project could not have been accomplished,

Especially Maria Antal.

I've learnt so much from my own students,

And from Sandra Sabatini,

From Rosamond Jordan,

Marilyn Friedman,

And many,

Many others,

And not forgetting our joint debt to Vanda herself.

The material is in no sense complete.

It is as unfinished as any pose.

It is developing.

It's a work in progress,

A snapshot of where I am now with my own practice.

The asanas I have included are basic,

And I haven't even included triangle pose,

For example.

The prime purpose is the encouragement,

Support,

And development of your very own practice.

Find five to ten minutes each day when you can give your body's movements really profound awareness.

Just use one or two of these poses in this material each day.

Pay attention to the time and place,

Even the clothing you're wearing.
