Pain is a human condition commonly experienced in yoga practice, both during movement and stillness. Yoga teaches us, and pain science confirms, that pain is not an accurate indication of tissue health or of tissue damage, neither is it an experience to ignore. This session provides reflection, practice and knowledge, to explore the intersection of pain and safety while answering the question of how much pain is okay during asana practice.
