About Yoga Yoga

Hatha Flow synchronizes movement and breath to produce a !ow of postures that lead naturally from one to the next. Expect to move continuously through about a third of the class. Students should understand that the classroom is not cooled (73-78 degrees) and that the physical practice can naturally build heat in the body. Familiarity with the basics of Hatha yoga is required.

Vinyasa uses vigorous !ows of postures to warm the body, focus the mind, increase !exibility and build strength and stamina. Classes are taught in a warm room (78-84 degrees), and students should expect to move continuously throughout the majority of the class. Familiarity with Hatha and the basics of Hatha Flow is required.

Candlelight Flow is a sweet practice, using !owing asanas in a candlelit room. Emphasis is placed on internalizing the practice–students should have the foundation of !ow-based yoga to fully enjoy this meditative !ow practice.

Ashtanga is a challenging lineage of Hatha Yoga focused on building strength and endurance leading to a naturally relaxed mental state. In a warm room (78-84 degrees), a dynamic sequence of postures–the Primary Series–combines focus with continuous movement. Familiarity with Hatha and the basics of Hatha Flow is suggested.

Fundamentals of Ashtanga incorporates about half of the Primary Series postures, allowing for a comfortable introduction to Ashtanga or an opportunity for regular Ashtanga students to focus on details. Familiarity with basic yoga postures highly suggested.

Ashtanga Mysore is an individually paced class taught in a group setting where students can receive one-on-one assistance from the teacher. "is is Ashtanga as it is classically taught, allowing students to advance at their own pace and with guidance. Basic familiarity with the Primary Series is suggested.

Restorative Yoga o#ers postures supported by the !oor and various props for an extended period of time. Alternately stimulating and relaxing the body encourages balance, deep relaxation and rejuvenation. Appropriate for all abilities.

Deep Relaxation, sometimes referred to as Yoga Nidra, is a guided meditation class done primarily while resting on the back to clear the mind and create a relaxed yet energized feeling in the body. Appropriate for all abilities.

!e practice of Avatara yoga uses vigorous asana practice, pranayama, meditation and various self-care practices to cultivate inner beauty into a unique outward expression. In this workshop we will enjoy an Avatara-style asana practice to lead us into an in-depth discussion of time-honored, budget-friendly beauty secrets that yogis have used for centuries.

Astrologically speaking, there is so much anxiety, depression, insanity, emptiness and pain in the world around us these days. Various Kundalini systems, including the chakra system and the ten bodies–plus some basic anatomy–will be discussed regarding these phenomena. !en we will put it all to work practicing to achieve balance and deepen awareness, "nding ourselves grounded, patient, neutral and full of vitality.

Recovery from birth isn’t just about losing the baby weight; it’s also about regaining strength and stability, in both body and mind. Beat the baby blues and come practice with other new moms as we learn yoga poses to tone the body, breathing techniques to calm the mind and meditation methods to reconnect with our Selves. Leave the baby with grandma and join us for a supportive and fun afternoon just for you! (For women 6 weeks-6 months postpartum.)

For students who are already working with an injury, we will discuss postures to pursue and those to steer clear of during the time of injury. Join us as we discover how to make our yoga practice more sustainable and enjoyable for many years to come.

Learn how di#erent styles of yoga can be used as tools to help you "ght stress, balance your energy and achieve deeper levels of relaxation. We will begin with an overview of how $ow, Yin and deep relaxation complement each other in an energizing (Yang) $ow that challenges the muscles and pumps up your prana.% We will then migrate into a Yin practice to open up connective tissue and begin relaxing the nervous system.% !e workshop will end by harvesting this lovely prana in a deeply relaxing and healing Yoga Nidra practice. %

In this workshop, we will explore many forms of movement from slow liquid !ow to invigorating kriyas, to move toward a fuller embodiment and understanding of the movements of prana. We will delve into the teachings of trance cultures from Su" mystics to African tribesman and explore how trance has been used to deepen our experience of reality and allow us to step beyond our mental hurdles.

Be who you are born to be.# Experience your essence, be in ecstasy everyday, awaken the passion living within you.# Tap into your sensuality.# Feed your creativity.# Find your way back to your authentic self.# Ignite the inner "res within you.# Use pranayama, meditations and Kundalini Yoga to explore the energies and possibilities of the 2nd and 6th chakras.

$is workshop will give you tools on how to use postures for soothing an overworked body.# Along with overdoing it and doing too much in the body, comes the fatigue of the mind.# You’ll be invited to explore a simpli"ed meditation that will enhance your clarity and mental well-being.

Take your vinyasa and !ow practice to a whole new level of fun, safety and alignment as we delve deeply into skills and details surrounding these three often confusing postures.# $rough the use of stabilizing, aligning and breathing techniques, "nd your unique way of moving to maximize the health of your shoulders, wrists, hips, neck and spine.# $rough speci"c attention to transitioning, we will strengthen the link between these postures often referred to as “vinyasa.”

Ever wish you could make more sound?# In this workshop we will explore some integrated movement, breath and vocal exercises that will help you create more sound with less e%ort.# Whether it is for a teaching voice that can be heard over your playlist or simply to create a more sensual OM, this workshop will put you on the path.

$is workshop will include some journaling to awaken some of our heartfelt desires; a little ritual to write down and burn some old hurts away. $en guided meditation and a heart-based practice will stimulate our deep connection to the Heart-Self, thus enabling our deeper connection to all that is. ALL IS ONE.

In Pratyahara...$e Beginning, we explored the 5th Limb of Yoga, looking inward and mastering our senses to "nd calm.# Now we step back to discover the properties, reason, bene"ts and rewards of Asana, the 3rd Limb of Yoga.# Vinyasa is a practice that can be used to make these discoveries.# Plan to be challenged and to be surprised at your already amazing abilities!

Anusara Yoga™ is built upon an elegant and speci"c set of Universal Principles of Alignment.# Take your practice to the next level by studying and understanding Inner and Outer Spiral through your hips, legs, and feet. Come learn the bene"ts of the spirals for your asanas, back and knee issues and internal organ health.

Bakasana, or Crane Pose, can be di&cult or seem elusive, but it can actually be made quite achievable and fun.#A good Crane is the foundation for many of the more advanced and playful arm balances. $is workshop will include dynamic Vinyasa !ows to warm and lubricate the body, speci"c activities to engage the core and then we will concentrate on the basics of arm balances through workshopping practices.

OTM’s mission is to empower individuals and inspire conscious, sustainable activism to ignite grassroots social change.

Each year OTM issues a global challenge to anyone who is interested enough in humanitarian issues and service to raise $20K via donations from his or her local community. !is isn’t just about writing a check–the funds must be raised via community activism. We’ve raised over $2M for service in Cambodia, Uganda and South Africa. In return for raising funds, these yogis get to come with us and see their money being spent.

Our 2011 Global Seva Challenge is Haiti where our focus will be clean water, organic farming and permanent shelters. We picked Haiti because it is still in crisis even though the world’s attention has moved on. We work locally and are free of governmental restrictions so we know the aid money goes to the proper agencies and gets used appropriately.

OTM catalyzes yogis in expanding their sphere of change. We’re building a network of yogic leaders who are taking action in the world in an engaged and intentional way. We want folks to raise money to join us in global service because it establishes them as leaders who can powerfully raise the awareness from the local to the global.

Yoga Votes, a program to encourage the vote within the yoga community and to provide non-biased information to help yogis engage with the government. If we want to live in a healthy, happy and sane world, we must be aware and involved and step into leadership. !ere are over 15 million yogis in our country. If we get our time, our money, our interests and our votes in alignment, we will collectively become a powerful voice.

Transformation by collective intention is the greatest power–our compassion, strength, focus, "exibility and surrender are the key ingredients for a revolution of the heart.

PANDIT RAJMANI

In every tradition, the lotus of the heart is seen as the sacred home of God. In the Indian tradition, Brahma the Creator is born of a lotus. !e great deities, Maha Vairochana of Tibetan Buddhism and Dainichi Nyori of Shingon Buddhism, make this lotus their abode. And yet many of us experience this sacred home mainly as a tangle of thorns.

We’ll learn the tantric method of meditating on the heart and discover why it destroys the clouds of fear and grief that engulf so many. !is unique meditation technique is based on the Lotus Sutra of Buddha and the Yoga Sutra of Patanjali and augmented by techniques from the tantric scriptures."Major topics include:

and retraining it to hear and heed the voice of the heart

For the !rst time, David will be o"ering his Level 2 Training in the US! New realms of exploration will include learning and applying the traditional Sanskrit counting method, as well as progressing into Second Series adjusting and practice. Students will gain a deeper understanding of how to recognize and utilize the inherent lines of energy in asanas. David refers to this approach as Equality of Opposition and the Six Directions. When developed properly, this method of approach provides teachers with tools that move them beyond simply manipulating an asana on a physical level into the realms of learning how to enhance and develop the unique underlying energetic planes !owing beneath the surface.

Participants will practice pranayama and learn how to safely and e"ectively teach it by pro#ciently explaining bandhas and the importance of proper ujjayi breath.

$e philosophical aspects of Ashtanga yoga will be expounded upon while David shares how to creatively apply the teachings of the Sutras and eight limbs within their classes as well as daily life.

In order to attend this Level 2 Training students must produce proof of their attendance in David’s 40-hour Level 1 Ashtanga Training.

Yoga Yoga continues innovating with the creation of two complementary organizations that will study, share and promote yoga. We’re starting here with our own wonderful Yoga Yoga community and will soon roll out new programs and research studies across the country.

Yogis understand that a healthy lifestyle is a lifelong practice. Yoga awakens an inner somatic wisdom to heal, guiding the body to a place of deeper wellness. In contrast, the current health-care system is built on quick "xes and is poorly equipped to educate, empower and support people in making long-term healthy lifestyle decisions.

#e Yoga Care Foundation is a non-pro"t 501(c)(3) organization that passionately advocates for public health and open access of research. #e foundation studies the most e!ective ways to support people in making mindful, sustainable health behavior changes.

We know that yoga catalyzes positive transformation for individuals and for society. We provide community outreach programs that bring yoga classes at no cost to domestic violence shelters and other populations in need of healing.

#e Shanti Health Network is a growing collective of progressive physicians and vetted Complementary and Alternative Medicine healers, including yoga instructors and yoga therapists, who want to support holistic lifestyle changes.

Shanti physicians incorporate yoga, meditation or other deeply rooted healing traditions (e.g., naturopathic, oriental, or indigenous medicine). With evidence-based integrative wellness interventions, the Shanti Health Network will o!er consumers enhanced care–more healing modality choices with lower out-of-pocket costs.
