Penetration of our mind is our goal, but in the beginning to set things in motion, there is no substitute for sweat.

You do not need to seek freedom in some distant land, for it exists within your own body, heart, mind, and soul.

The challenge of yoga is to go beyond our limits - within reason. We continually expand the frame of the mind by using the canvas of the body. It is as if you were to stretch a canvas more and create a larger surface for a painting. But we must respect the present form of our body. If you pull too much at once, we will rip the canvas. If the practice of today damages the practice of tomorrow, it is not correct practice.

Balance in the body is the foundation for balance in life.

Any action done with beauty and purity, and in complete harmony of body, mind and soul, is Art.
