Is Yoga the Next Aerobics?

If my ongoing knee pain [and subsequent inability to yogasize for a few months] is any indication, added to what the surgeon I saw for an initial eval said about the recent spike in yoga related injuries, this may be the future of yoga in America.

Notice I said America? Yoga is a discipline that has been around and in use for thousands of years in India. I doubt the Yogis in India are having repetitive stress injuries from taking this . Of course they don’t have that in India.

Ah Americans, we always take it to the limit .

As a yoga teacher, it's painful to watch so much poor alignment taught in yoga classes today. It definitely can lead to injuries. I hope you are able to recover soon.
