What is Yoga?
Yoga is the ancient art of breaking down the perception of separation. The methods of yoga were passed on by word of mouth thousands of years ago. Then they were put into writting in many verses by the Indian yogic sage Patañjali as the Yoga Sutras, which remains the basic roots and instruction of yoga.
