I practiced many of these poses when I was younger. However, after having been diagnosed with PD approx. 8 years ago, and now having rigidity, dyskinesia. and a slight head drop, to go right in to these poses would be dangerous for me. It would be wonderful if Yoga Journal would publish articles for people with PD, other disabling conditions, and who are elderly that would feature stretches and poses done at a very beginning level. This would help people like me work our way up gradually and safely to the very excellent poses in your article.

Thank you for posting this. I think I will print and study the pictures to see what kind of gradual "building blocks" I can come up with.
