Expert's Advice:- Keeping the multidimensional aspects of asanas in mind it can be said that there is no age limit for certain types of asanas. But normally the practitioner above the age of 16 and below the age of 45 get the proper benefits of asanas because in this state (of age) the glands or various chakras (cycles) receive the power to circulate harmones. The asanas being a glandular exercise are most suitable to perform at this age but yoga can be practiced during the entire life. By practicing asanas at the young age the agility and diseases both can be avoided. posted by Yoga GURU on 8 April 2010 8:15
