I wanted to share a blog post about Kripalu Yoga
http://www.deepreliefmassagetherapy.com/apps/blog/
I checked out your link and it looks like something I would love to participate in. I love that there are different branches of Kripalu. Here is a piece of what was posted on the website to give everyone an introduction to Kripalu.
"
Why Kripalu yoga as opposed to the other styles out there? This style of yoga allows you to tailor your practice to your particular life situation. Do you want to work hard and sweat? There is a vigorous practice for you. Are you caring for some tenderness from old or new injuries? There is a gentle/moderate practice that will allow you to modify postures and care for those aspects of self while still moving, stretching and strengthening safely. Are you in a life situation that requires deep self care? There is a practice that beautifully complements medical care. People working with M.S., cancer, fibromyalgia, thyroid, autism, exhaustion, pain, stress, depression, etc. find yoga to be powerfully helpful. At Kripalu we learn that yoga is an exploration; a scientific process of trying various postures, breath work and meditation to see how they interact with your unique body at this unique time of life. Find what works for you! After all, you are totally and completely unique. Just like everybody else!"
