INDIAN YOGA VS RUSSIAN YOGA

Indian yoga is apparently really hard. This page out of a book of Asanas yoga says, "This version of the posture requires considerable strength in the neck, shoulders, and back, requiring years of practice to achieve. It should not be attempted without supervision." Yeah right, give a Russian a few sips of airplane glue or whatever they're drinking these days and he'll Asanas your ass all the way back to Azerbaijan.
