Begin or continue your yoga studies at Yoga Loka
This immersion can be taken as the beginning, or as part of, your 500 hour certification, continuing education credits, and of course just for your own edification, simply because you love yoga and want to learn as much as possible!
The courses can be taken seperately or as a package.
The work will highlight the anatomy of the area as well as poses that will help strengthen, stretch and heal. We will always look at the energetic implications of poses and weave personal experiences into the mix.
The course will be in person but you can also zoom in if you are far or just can't make it that day. All classes will be recorded so you can also attend in your own time when needed. It is best to be at the classes in real time, but just so you know, you won't miss anything because of a conflict in your schedule.
Classes and seminars will begin in January 2024

Physical
Assist Clinics
Learn basic and advanced assists. We will work on three levels of assisting: verbal, energetic, and physical. Even if you never expect to be a yoga teacher, learning how to assist helps you understand your own experience in asana more deeply. Assisting also complements any and all of your relationships! When we assist, we are learning how to communicate in an entirely new way. You will, in fact, find that practicing asana assists will change how you interact in the world; it will be far more sattvic! Plus, you will be assisted in the sessions, which also helps your understanding of where your body is and what it is doing.
