ALI YOGA WELLNESS
About Karen McKnight
I began teaching Yoga as a means of helping my community which was heavily affected by several preventable cardiovascular diseases, including; high blood pressure, obesity, and diabetes.
As I participated in Yoga, I found it an easily adaptable fitness system and did not realize that other fitness systems were based on or synthesized from Yoga. I also found that participation in physical Yoga greatly relieved stress and provided access to the clarity of the mind through meditation and therapeutic breathing exercises, vital elements of any yoga practice. In effect, Yoga is a healing art. Using every breath we take, Yoga aligns the body and mind, alleviating the soul from the pains of life.
