Classes |
I am a Vancouver-based teacher offering group classes in:
Yoga (Flow and Hatha) Fusion Fitness and Spinning |
Scientific Research |
Curious? Me too!
If you have a question about the scientific-basis for the benefits or contraindications of asana or meditation, I will poke around the academic literature and see if it has been studied. All responses will be shared here so that, as a community, we can expand our understanding. |
Science - it is what I do.
I have immense respect for other ways of knowing and those with expertise in philosophy, spirituality, and history. Science is simply one way of many to understand our world. The service I am offering here is to explore the scientific literature for anyone with a question about yoga or meditation.
For many questions, there may be no evidence-based results (yet). It takes time and resources to study relationships in human health, but there is a growing body of studies and journals examining the health benefits and risks of yoga. Your questions are a marvelous catalyst to stay current in this quickly evolving field and then to share what I find.
