In order to understand why we are feeling pain in our knees, wrists, ankles, or elbows, we have to understand their function and how they move. By using different examples of asana that may put pressure on these joints, you take an in-depth look at how simple modifications can create a safer way of moving throughout your entire practice and how this can provide longevity to these small joints.
