    Yoga of the body teaches how to understand, care, develop and thrive in incarnation.

    Understand, transform and liberate your emotional realm. Learn the power of devotion and inspiration.

  • Yoga of the Mind.

    The mind is your worst enemy or your best friend as it says in the Bhagavad Gita.

    Understanding the mind via neuroscience and the yogic lens and discovering how certain practices can change your mind from being destructive to being a powerful tool of co-creation and wellbeing

  • Yoga of the Breath.

    The breath is the gateway between stress and resilience, between creativity and destruction and is also the vehicle for prana.

    Like a magic key it gives access to deeper levels of awareness, deeper levels of the subconscious mind, the connection between mind and life-energy and to the environment.

  • Yogic Philosophy.

    Yogic philosophy is a pragmatic approach on how to live well. It seeks to answer lifes’ questions with a deep devotional dimension that engages the heart.

  • The Obstacles.

    Exploring the barriers we put up to limit our own self growth.

  • Yogic Community.

    Understanding what yogic community is and how to cultivate it is enabling, supportive, challenging and liberating.

  • Consciousness

    What is the difference between conscious and subconscious, subconscious and unconscious? What is the relationship between consciousness and awareness, awareness and attention?

    What do the yogic texts say about consciousness? What does contemporary science say about consciousness? Let’s find out and grow together in consciousness.

  • Science of Yoga.

    How does the body actually work? How does meditation affect the brain? Why do we feel good when we do certain practices? What are the areas we need to pay attention to, what might be compromising our wellbeing if we are not aware of it?

  • Yoga as Medicine.

    Traditionally yoga was to elevate beyond the the physical dimension, however its modern day usage is somewhat more therapeutic. We will explore this in depth.
