In yoga we look inward to iconic patterns of awareness and expression within the breath, body, heart, and mind to help find balance. For each of us divine expressions of female and male energy complement one another within our thoughts, movements, actions, and interactions in the world and if we lose touch with the vitality this balance provides, we and those around us suffer.

This pattern of internal awareness and balance is at the core of the ashtanga vinyasa system of practice reflected not only in the modern-day practice of this form, but in texts, such as the Yoga Tārāvalī, that serve as its roots.

In this workshop we will reignite the powerful expression of seemingly opposite patterns working together to awaken the fully embodied experience of the moment at hand. Together we will explore āsana, prāṇāyāma, meditation, and chanting with
a focus on foundational wave patterns of movement, form and thought that make the ashtanga vinyasa inspired practice supportive, safe, strong, and supple. We will also study the Yoga Tārāvalī and experience firsthand how practicing and
contemplating in this way helps remove patterns of holding that can show up as tightness or weakness in your body, difficulty communicating with or finding tolerance for others, and tuning
in deeply to your own core needs and emotions.

Inspiration for this workshop grew out of real life for Richard and Mary. With over fifty years of experience each practicing, studying, and teaching yoga while navigating the complexities of life—running a business and raising a family together—they offer insight and wisdom into how to make yoga an integral part of a healthy, happy life. The capacity to see and embody through yoga the interfacing of opposites has been their greatest teacher allowing them to be supportive of one another without losing themselves as individuals in the process. They invite you to join them and explore the freedom of uniting breath, mind, body, and spirit to wake up to your full potential and embrace the capacity to be of service in the world.

Open to students of all levels of practice.
