AYS YTT BALI REQUIREMENTS
Our only requirements:
1. Be kind to yourself.
2. Accept yourself.
3. Trust you’re exactly where you need to be.
You don’t need to bend it like Beckham or touch your toes like Tiffany. In fact, maybe you’ve never even taken a yoga class. Yoga is not about how flexible you are or what brand of yoga pants you’re wearing. It’s about what you bring to the practice, what you bring to life.
“Asanas bring perfection in body, beauty in form, grace, strength, compactness, and the hardness and brilliance of a diamond.”
-Patanjali
