Yoga practice is extremely versatile ; it can be practised in solitude or in the more social atmosphere of a class situation and can be modified to suit age, ability and need.It can also be done in a co-operative sense combining the skills and support of another person.In this article we are going to explain the benefits and advantages of practising Yoga with partners and friends.Yoga's holistic approach uses physical postures (asanas), breathing and relaxation techniques in order to establish a sense of awareness and integration for each person.Its foundations in ancient Eastern philosophy are, nevertheless, very relevant to the modern, Western lifestyle ; it can help to reduce the inevitable stresses and strains, both physically and emotionally.Yoga asanas work by stretching, strengthening and massaging all structures of the body.
