Equal and opposite force in Bikram Yoga – how to use Newton’s third law of motion
This posture workshop will be led by BYSJ owner and founder Michele Vennard and assisted by Rewa Kaul and Kerry Hyman. We will focus on this essential dynamic, which is critical to getting the most out of many yoga poses. Working with simple exercises and a selection of postures, you will learn techniques to go deeper and leverage balance. Anyone can do it, and everyone is welcome.

Michele Vennard wrote an article about equal and opposite force, including detail on how it’s applied in four key Bikram Yoga postures.

“Creating this tension is what keeps you balanced in the posture. It’s Newton’s third law of motion. For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction.” – Bikram Choudhury
