understand the deeper aspects of Yoga
To understand the deeper dimension of Hatha Yoga it is important to see it in its relation to Yoga as a philosophical system and spiritual practice that was developed over 4,000 years ago to gain self-realization. That’s why the course covers not only the Asana Practice, but also the deeper aspects of Yoga Philosophy, Meditation, Pranayama, Kriyas, Bandhas, Mudras & Chanting.
“When I hear Yoga, I do not see a person standing upside down.
I do not see a person who is demonstrating postures.
No. I see Life. I see a person who is free.
I see a person who is naturally happy, who is not doing anything extra to be happy.”
This training can be experienced separately, or as a part of the 3-months 'Yogi Path' program.
