Classical Yoga is an ancient Indian tradition based on movement, breathing and developing awareness of the mind. Yoga is not about the body or the mind but a method to synthesize the two. Yoga invites us to harmonize our body, breath and mind as a way to experience wakefulness and compassion in our daily lives. Yoga's language is that of self-awareness, both physical and mental and how to listen to it, move with it and be with it. In Yoga we meet ourselves. Beginning with the exploration of the breath, putting our attention on the breath and just being aware. As we focus on the breath there is an increase of well-being and clarity of mind.

When we step on to our mats, we listen to our bodies with full attention. From that space of clarity we move into the practice. The body responds by breathing and giving into gravity. We do not impose on the body, but rather listen to it. Practice creates the possibility for more and more stillness. That stillness is our natural state, Yoga is the pathway to guide us to see, think and act from this place of clarity.

"Yoga is a living journey of the wonder
of the body and the life force within us."
