"The state of contentment contains the fullness of Life.  Everything of value, everything of beauty, everything of meaning is present in contentment, in santosha.

There is nothing more to do … nothing more to seek."  - Goswami Kriyananda

 

Yoga Styles 
 

Ashtanga

Led Primary Series 

If deep asana practice is calling you, the First Series of Ashtanga is also called Yoga Chikitsa or “Yoga Therapy".

 

Utilizing Ujjayi breath and a finely tuned, iconic sequence for majesty & equipoise, focus is on forward bending and twisting postures to rid the body and mind of all tension and stiffness. Before moving on with the Second and Third series, where the nervous system is more deeply impacted, the inflammatory responses of the body are transmuted to be ready for deeper Yogic practice. 

Ayurvedic Yoga 

The application of yoga considers the unique-ness of each person and their doshas, the individual's physical and psychological constitution.

 

Create balance through daily and seasonal ritual and routines, sustaining harmony, qualitative health and joy. 

Beginner Classes

Safe and enjoyable from the start, find a deeper sense of wellness and peace.

 

An introduction to the practices and for those who would like to go at a slower pace.  Classes give students the opportunity to learn the fundamentals correctly.  

Resonant Kriya Yoga

Prana (life-breath-energy), asana (posture), mantra (transformative sound), visualization and dyana (meditation)

You will open your heart and renew your senses. Kriya Yoga is a deeply healing and transformative form that can be experienced by anyone with very good results.  

 

Regular, dedicated practice is part of a synergistic, devotional system that is taught in a way that refines every aspect of yoga.​ Develop greater inner and outer strength, flexibility of mind and body, balance the 5 elements in you, and raise your consciousness for a vivid and healthy life.  

 

The esoteric lineage of Kriya Yoga from Punjab, India and the legacy of Guru Nanak is the origin point for many of these centuries old series and techniques.  

Pranayama 

Breath work is the essential, inner architecture of yoga. Pranayama impacts the totality of the mind, the flow of the psyche, and the energy conduits of the body.  

 

Breath work is part of each Kundalini Kriya Yoga class. Meditation on the sacred breath makes life sweet and grounds our higher consciousness.

Vinyasa Yoga

Moving dynamically from asana to asana, pose to pose with constant attention to breath.  

 

Focus is on balanced power, fluid flexibility and conscious alignment. Vinyasa frees the body of impurities like stiffness and muscle tension, leaving practitioners feeling clear, free and energized.  

 

Vinyasa Yoga is a challenging practice, appropriate for those with prior experience with asana and the majestic breath called Ujjayi. 

Meditation

Dyana, the practice of inner stillness, is a neutral point of deepest ease from which all emotions and concepts can be viewed with equipoise. 

 

Attune your Self.  Guided meditation addresses the highest potential of the human spirit.  Silent and guided meditation into states of deep relaxation support true calm, release stress and chronic tension and elevate consciousness. 

Tibetan Yoga Nidra / Dream Yoga is part of the Monday evening class where the main pillars of spiritual wisdom teachings are given.
