What does yoga have to do with dragons? Symbolically, dragons can represent the energy of the breath, opening to its nourishing current like the spreading of wings. The movement of asana (yoga postures) on your mat can be like riding a dragon, requiring skill, strength, focus and courage. Dragons are wisdom-keepers, and yoga's wisdom is seemingly infinite. The mystical energy of Kundalini-the rising serpent-could also be represented by a dragon. Perhaps you even believe in dragons. Many people do, you know? Dragons have long symbolized power and transformation. To be a Dragon Rider is to claim your power and embrace your personal purpose. What is that purpose? It's up to you to find out. When it comes to the physical practice of yoga, you'll find hundreds of photos and exceptional alignment instruction. As with the entire book, the asana section is designed so you can "choose your own journey." You can do the poses that work for your body, and skip anything that isn't something you want to do right now. Beginners can focus on the single pose descriptions, and build simple sequences from the full ones offered. Advanced and intermediate practitioners will enjoy the creative, challenging sequences.
