## Description

You can use this MCP to turn your AI agent into a knowledgeable yoga instructor that understands physical limitations. Instead of generic advice, your agent gets access to specific modification principles designed to protect joints and accommodate different body types. If you have a nagging lower back issue or limited hip mobility, your AI client can now suggest exact ways to adjust a pose using blocks, straps, or different limb placements. It doesn't just tell you what to do; it provides a roadmap for progression, helping you move from a highly modified version of a pose toward the full expression as your strength and flexibility improve. This is about making yoga work for your specific body, ensuring that every movement is intentional and injury-free.
