I remember a yoga teacher jokingly saying to a student, "If you don't blah, blah, blah, I won't teach you the next posture." Her discerning reply was, "I don't want the next posture," which caused the class to chuckle. However, at that time I was the opposite of that. I wanted the next posture. I wanted to progress. It was what drove me-I was young in my yoga journey. I saw only the physical benefits of what I was learning.

In the Ashtanga sequence I wanted, the next posture it is part of the process. The postures get harder and more difficult as you progress. It's a sign that I'm getting better at this yoga thing. It's what I wanted. And as a person with Multiple Sclerosis it takes my mind believing I'm not so bad. MS is not defining me. I can do this.

But I learned yoga is much more than a way to get a healthier body. MS does its best to define what I can't do. Ashtanga showed me what I can do and improved me physically, mentally, and spiritually. I started as a skeptic, but now I live as an enthusiastic yoga ambassador.

Knee, David: - I've never been sure of where I'm going, but I am sure I've had a good life so far. I am married with six kids and four grandkids. I was diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis at 41 years old, which dramatically changed my path. At 58 years old I took up Ashtanga yoga, which changed my path again. Ashtanga yoga is regarded as a difficult disciplined form of yoga. It's real to me. No music playing, no 104 degree temperature, no shouting out instructions. Just the constant sound of breathing. Mine and everyone else's. Quiet individual instructions while you progress through the set series of asanas. It's a disciplined approach that seeps into my being and earns the respect that it deserves. It's difficult but definitely accessible, attainable, and in my case addictive.
