Alignment, or Joint Centration, occurs when there is an equal balance of mobilizers and stabilizers around a joint. This puts the joint in its optimal position and allows all the surrounding structures to function properly.

Yoga is so much more than simply increasing flexibility. The postures challenge us to develop strength and increase our endurance. This enables our tissues to withstand more force and decreases our risk of injury.
