Mr. Broad's Critique of Asana Practice

[muck_a_luck]

I came across this guy's article the other day. How Yoga Can Wreck Your Body. Also, he is selling a book.

It is certainly a valid point that one should practice with care and non-violence toward self.

Not sure what else I think about this, though. Discuss?

There's another good response here, which (among other things) suggests that Broad's book is far more nuanced than the article:

I've pre-ordered the book; it'll be interesting to see what it turns out to be like.
