Yoga Study Group: A Complete System for Better Living Ancient Vedic and tantric texts (shastras) describe yoga as a system of techniques that address the person as a whole. Not merely a physical workout, traditional yoga is a methodology of lifestyle, philosophy and practices, which harmoniously develop all of the person's potential - the physical, emotional, energetic and spiritual qualities within each of us. By practicing the complete system of yoga consistently with full awareness, our “best” selves unfold naturally, rather than by forcing the body and mind beyond their limits. In this course, we will explore the full spectrum of yoga through practicing the physical movements (asanas), breathing practices (pranayama), energy control techniques (mudras and bandhas) and internal cleansing rituals (shatkarmas) set forth in the tantric scriptures (shastras). What will the course include? Step-by-step instruction in asana, pranayama, mudras, bandhas, shatkarmas & kriya that start from easy foundation practices and develop over time into more advanced techniques Asana sequences to practice at home Greater understanding of the philosophy behind yoga Detailed hand-outs and worksheets explaining each class lesson Community support in developing a yogic lifestyle Yoga Study Group: A Complete System for Better Living Ancient Vedic and tantric texts (shastras) describe yoga as a system of techniques that address the person as a whole.
