Why knowing a little about anatomy is important?

To understand how our body is built as yoga focuses on self-knowledge, which also implies a body composed of bones and flesh

To understand the relationship between breath and spine / posture and motion
To be much more precise concerning what we expect from our body, to develop correct postures, avoid injuries, self-correct and adapt
To practice in security to avoid circulation, cardiac or articular issues
To balance the bone structure and thus our emotions, our energy, etc…
To understand our limits, work within the latter and thus start healing
To “use the knowledge of the body to create Drishti in our practice” Ray Long
To break through blockages
To age better
