Building the body without building the mind is like building a castle on shifting sand.

This yoga class is for beginners and beyond, particularly those interested in yoga beyond the postures, namely meditation. Meditation practice is receiving more and more recognition with Harvard publishing studies on it's benefits. Most yoga classes these days focus on the physical practice, while complete yoga is physical, mental, and beyond.

We will practice hatha yoga postures for the first 20 minutes. You'll need a yoga mat, a couple yoga blocks, strap or towel and meditation seat, followed by 20-minutes of seated practice (breathing and meditation).

For the final 20 minutes, I take questions regarding the practices and present applicable yoga theory.

Please register at least 1-24 hours ahead of time and log in 15 min before class so we can sound check and roll call.
Please make sure your whole body shows on your video screen so I can offer corrections as needed.
You may mirror your device or connect with hard cable (HDMI or equivalent) to your smart TV or large display. If you’re using your phone, I suggest investing in a tripod to allow quick and easy positioning during class.

TUITION:NEW STUDENTS FIRST CLASS FREE! Drop-in, class cards and unlimited monthly options available at sign up.

To whom I lend loving credit.

Srivatsa Ramaswami, one-on-one student of T Krishnamacharya for 33 years. He is the teacher whom I have learned the most about yoga. He's taught me Krishnamacharya's Vinyasa Krama (asana, vinyasa, pranayama), direct translation of ancient texts, e.g. Yoga Sutra, Bhagavad Gita, Samkhya Karika, just to name a few. I have learned a tremendous amount of Sanskrit through this master's blessings.

Original Ashtanga Yogis David Swenson, David Williams, (Ricky Tran) and Danny Paradise @Ashtanga Mela 2010. These first generation Ashtangis showed me by example how one can continue to practice yoga for the rest of your life.

The Amazing Kumar Pallana, actor, performer, comedian, yogi, taught me that no matter the age of the student, everyone must be taught to laugh and breathe.
Picture
Sri Dharma Mitra, circa 2009 taught me about ahimsa and devotion. The master reminds us that the goal of yoga is Self-Realization. He is as his name implies, a friend to all.

Inspired by Bryan Kest Power Yoga, through Suze Curtis, my first yoga teacher. Learn to be comfortable when uncomfortable. Listen. Respond vs. React.
“Before you've practiced, the theory is useless. After you've practiced, the theory is obvious.” David Williams
