Is yoga about the body or the mind? Where does asana fit in the eight limbs?

Most of my classes are physical. Am I missing the point?

  Asana is the third of Patanjali's eight limbs, after the yamas and niyamas. In the Sutras it means a steady, comfortable seat. The body is a doorway to the rest.

  You are not missing the point — you are at a starting point. Many people find the rest through the physical practice.
