Components

 

Yoga Philosophy

  • Eight Limbs of Yoga.  

  • Ethical Foundations. 

  • Four Paths.  

  • Sacred Texts (Yoga Sutras, Hatha Yoga Pradipika, Bhagavad Gita.)

Yoga views the body as a temple of the Divine and the world and everything in it as sacred. Yoga Philosophy sets the foundations of yoga practice by exploring the sacred scriptures of yoga- Yoga Sutras, Bhagavad Gita, and Hatha Yoga Pradipika and their relevance to modern life.  

 

Anatomy, Sequencing and Asana

  • Skeletal System

  • Muscular System 

  • Nervous System

  • Lymphatic System

  • Digestive System

Access creativity to organically build a sequence.  

Experiential Anatomy, accessing our experience of our body to learn our anatomy. 

 

Yoga of Communication and Conflict

  • Conflict and Power.

  • Emotional Intelligence. 

  • Non-violent communication. 

  • Art of the Other.

The Yoga of Communication and Conflict applies yogic princples and conflict resolution skills to personal, professional, familial, and intimate relationships to help us understand ourselves, our values, and our deepest needs and aspirations. With this clarity, we can learn to communicate with kindness and compassion for ourselves and others.

 

Prana/Qi, Bodymind Connection and Healing

  • Meditation 

  • Visualizations.  

  • Mantra and Sound

  • Movement. 

Mantra is to the mind what asana is to the body. Mantra is the most sophisticated yogic tool to interrupt habitual thought patterns and replace them with patterns of harmony. Mantra and sound explore vibration, resonance, and singing as a practice to clear subtle blockages, open the heart, and embody our authentic voice.
