The Science category provides valuable insights into various subjects, such as new generation anatomy, applied physiology, yoga kinesiology, and the science of stretching. By exploring these topics, you'll gain a better understanding of how the body works and how it responds to the practice of yoga.

Furthermore, you'll gain awareness of your own physical limitations, fostering a sense of empathy and understanding when guiding your students. In addition to exploring the physical aspects, the Science section also focuses on the mind-body connection.
