According to the ancient teachings, there are three essential stages to practice: Moon, Sun, and Fire or mind, energy, and spirit. Furthermore, it’s vital to adjust your practice (including the specific asanas, breath, bandhas, and our overall approach to yoga), depending upon which one of these three dimensions you intend to affect. During this retreat we delve, through theory and practice, into each one of the three stages of practice, detailing how to approach yoga practice as alchemy. All levels of experienced yoga students and teachers are welcome. Whether you are a practitioner and/or a teacher, this weekend will help you unlock the true power of yoga and teach you how to fulfill your (or your students’) potential. All classes include theory, as well as, practice––vinyasa, pranayama, bandha, and meditation.
