You will also Learn that : :
Yoga is not a religion at Eyes of the World. You don't have to adopt any beliefs, gurus or foreign deities. There is no conflict with whatever you believe in.
We are grateful to all the teachers we have studied with, yet we promote no lineages, no fundamentalist doctrines. We want students who question and challenge everything and take nothing at face value.

| Yoga is not about strength and flexibility. You don't have to be flexible to practice yoga. Strength and flexibility will happen as a secondary benefit when you practice. The practice at Eyes of the World, is physically challenging, sometimes even "aerobic" in Level One and Level Two classes, but fitness is a secondary benefit.
You will need to practice alignments, breath and awareness many times a week, at home, in the car, waiting in line. Eventually yoga is an all day long practice. Then, you'll begin to experience its true depth.

| Many people come to yoga because of back pain, sciatica, neck problems, breathing problems, heart problems, anxiety, diabetes, plantar fascitis, stress disorders, ulcers, addictions, anxiety, panic attacks, depression, or they want to lose weight.
This is a good thing. Because many find that yoga is so much more than the physical problems that they first came for. While yoga is very effective in alleviating certain types of medical conditions, these are secondary benefits. Yoga is not a medical practice, but it has been shown to be very helpful in many ways.
