Greetings beautiful Yogi's,
Wishing you all a year filled with new beginnings, I hope 2025 will be a year of collective awakening, may we be guided by principles of, peace, Integrity, humility, kindness, love, compassion, Joy, and Awe.
I hope you all had a lovely holiday season with some restful moments of stillness to restore and relax.

It's been a while since we did the Chakra series, and it feels like an appropriate time for resetting and tapping into our Chakra System. The beauty of the Chakras is that it allows you to use your body's wisdom and tap into the subtle energies of each Chakra. We'll touch upon the attributes, the asanas or postures, and the sounds of the Chakras. The sound vibration can truly shift the state of mind when combined with the postures and breadth. I will continue to recommend adaptations of postures, as the practice of yoga is truly for everybody.

It's always my intention that by using therapeutic yoga principles in developing a practice with fluid strengthening yoga postures with an emphasis on breathing, deep relaxation, and insight into meditation that enable the body and the mind to transition into a place of Sukha, a beautiful state of ease, stillness, and joyfulness.

Yoga is a light, which once lit, will never dim. The better your practice, the brighter the flame.” — B.K.S. Iyengar

Sometimes your joy is the source of your smile, but sometimes your smile can be the source of your joy.
Thích Nhất Hạnh

Yoga keeps you grounded, starting with setting an intention, with breathing, seed sounds, gentle movements that awaken your body to move from the inside out. Relax and be here now🙏🏼💛✨💛.
“Yoga is when every cell of the body sings the song of the soul.” “Yoga teaches us to cure what need not be endured and endure what cannot be cured.” “Focus on keeping your spine straight. It is the job of the spine to keep the brain alert.” Yoga is the dance between the light and the dark within you. The light is what brings you back to the mat and the darkness is what you uncover there. BKS Iyengar.

Namaste, forward to seeing you tomorrow evening 🙏🏼

Namaste everyone, I’d like to share this video that my son made about his interpretation of Hanuman. It takes modern day examples and may be helpful in spreading the wisdom of Hanuman to more people.

Dear Yogi's,
I Hope you are all enjoying this beautiful week, the longer days are approaching and we will soon have beautiful spring flowers and fragrance in the air. If all goes well we may just remain on daylight savings this year? The debate has certainly been going on for several years now.

I've really appreciated our connection on Zoom, thank you as many of you have given me great feedback. Our Next series will include aspects of transition from winter into spring and the adapting of the body to this change. We will continue towards a deeper understanding of each Asana (yoga postures) and its unique benefits, we'll explore many of the traditional Asanas with flowing movements, with a greater focus on pranayama (pranayama). We will also focus on deep relaxation in the body to replenish our nervous system. It's particularly important that we develop good practices for maintaining an equanimous state of being in these challenging times. Yoga philosophy along with its strong breathing practices helps us connect with our inner being.

It's always my intention that by using therapeutic yoga principles in developing a practice with fluid strengthening yoga postures with an emphasis on breathing, deep relaxation, insight into meditation that enable the body and the mind to transition into a place of Sukha, a beautiful state of ease, stillness, and joyfulness.
