As a student of yoga – Louise discovered the importance of a great adjustment - it could help to correct alignment and keep her safer, demonstrate the feelings and sensations of correct alignment, allow her to go deeper into a pose, and transform the expression and experience of her practice by helping her understand and relate to each posture. As a teacher she wants to share her love of yoga, meditation, and the art of adjustments.
