<div style="margin: 0.1px 0px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal;">At the heart of a deeper practice we develop the discipline (tapas) to release external distractions (pratyahara) and turn our focus (dharana) inward so that we might surrender to the radiant potential within us (samadhi). <span style="font-kerning: none;">This dynamic practice inspires mindful awareness as we awaken to the present through the use of pranayama (yogic breathing techniques), mantra (sound), asana (postures), and meditation (dhyana). </span>Basic yoga philosophy and Sanskrit language will be taught throughout the practices. Each session encourages you to build upon your skills and attune to the wisdom of your body, mind, and spirit. Challenge your edge consciously, on multiple levels, as the energetic channels open and re-balance in this integrative class! Previous yoga experience recommended. </div>
