Yoga is so much more than just getting flexible.  Yoga helps to strengthen and take unwanted stress off the body by stacking and aligning the bones of the skeleton so the body can work as a whole unit seamlessly.  There are many cues in yoga many instructors know how to give, but often teaching 60-75 minute classes these intriquet cues get left behind for more generalized instructions.  There is nothing wrong with this since keeping the class safe as a whole is far more important than helping a couple advanced yogis find external rotation in the thigh by rotating the upper femur bone in its socket.  If this advanced yogi is you though, and you are looking for that next level, schedule a private today!  The wonderful benefits of scheduling a private class include: learning how to access deeper parts of your body, gaining knowlege and getting to keep, and apply, it to your own personal practice, being introduced to advanced techniques without having to go through teacher training yourself!
