This Quick Reference Guide identifies prerequisites and contraindications for standing, seated, supine, prone and semi-inversion yoga poses. All of the information was obtained from Ginger's book Medical Therapeutic Yoga.
This project helped me to better understand the continuum of yoga poses. I also liked the process of going through each pose and thinking about what is required of the body. Personally, I realized I have more work to do on my shoulders than I thought and will continue to work towards a healthier shoulder complex.
