Words from Shiva on Yoga: Namaste Friends ~ Awareness of the breath transforms the theory of yoga into reality. It is water to a seed. Controlled breath ignites physical, mental and spiritual transformation. Control of the breath leads to meditation. Pranayama and meditation calms the mind, and allows one to transform limiting tendencies into life affirming thought patterns. Meditation in yoga is paramount on the journey to self-discovery.

Asanas help prepare the body for sitting and deep-contemplation. The asana emphasis in this program includes both level one/two alignment based vinyasa flow sequencing, ashtanga techniques, as well as gentler and restorative variations. The application of clear principles of alignment create safety, balance, and freedom in yoga poses. Rather than offer standard sequencing or rigid methodologies, students are exposed to frameworks that inspire each trainee to adapt the practices, awaken their creativity, and find their own authentic voice as a teacher.

Additionally, in the program, students explore concepts from Ayurveda, the Upanishads, Patanjali, the Nadis, and the Chakra System, as frameworks for the application of yoga as a journey towards radiant health and well-being. We aspire to share the traditional knowledge of yoga with students, to help practitioners along their path of self-discovery, so students can in turn help others. As part of the Shiva Rishi growing community, Graduates of this program feel empowered to teach a variety of yoga class types, including: all levels of Hatha and Vinyasa yoga, Mysore-style Ashtanga, alignment-based classes, yoga foundations, senior, gentle, and restorative. May you find peace along the journey
