David Koffer I
have been practicing yoga for about 5 years. Through the process of
exploring the Asanas, breathing techniques, and yogic philosophy (and
by way of other disciplines such as martial arts) I learned how to
step back and become the observer of my own practice. As with many
students, I found at first that the vigorous Ashtanga classes were
a really good way to stay in shape. However, it wasn’t long
before I began to notice deeper changes within myself. I enjoy practicing
yoga for its physical benefits, and have begun noticing its other
benefits to my mind and spirit – one that brings calm and focus
to my life. I also find that it brings a softer balance to the martial
arts I study.
