How much yoga does it take to become a yoga pro?

I%26#039;ve been doing yoga for a while, and I definitly can feel a deference in how I am able to move now. The guys on my yoga tapes are bendy to the extreme though. Any yoga gurus out there, please let me know how many months, years, etc. it takes to have a great range of motion, and a ton of flexibility.|||It%26#039;s a case by case basis. Being a %26#039;yoga pro%26#039; isn%26#039;t about bendibility. The fact is we are born with a set range of motion. The muscles hold about 20% of the flexibility. The ligaments only 4%. So, once you%26#039;ve worked out all the flexibility that is being held in the muscules, you only have 4% left to go and if you go over that level, then you can hurt yourself and damage the ligaments (in other words, don%26#039;t do it - don%26#039;t over push yourself past pain ).


The other thing about yoga is the spiritual aspect which comes with letting go of expectation, judgement and competition. This is more important than the flexibility and physical balance that we observe. So, once we%26#039;ve mastered those inner voices - once we%26#039;ve let go of those things like the ego which hold us back then, we may quite happily say that we%26#039;ve become %26#039;yoga pros%26#039;... but at that point, when you%26#039;ve conquered these ego based attachments, you might not want to be a yoga pro anymore - and be just really happy with where you%26#039;ve come in your life.


Write me if you have any more questions.|||about 2 years if you keep it up! go girl! and yes it does take a great range of motion and a TON of flexibility.
