Resilience, Power, Discrimination, Wisdom, and Longevity are all highly desired
qualities in which the ageless science of Ayurveda thrives on building in our lives.

The 3 Vital Essences of Prana (energy), Tejas (inner light), and Ojas (primal vigour)
are a key factor in the attainment of optimal conditioning of our being on all levels.
We commonly hear that ayurveda tells us what to eat, what natural remedies to take
and what time to go to bed right! While that’s true and an essential aspect of life,
there is far more to the teachings of Ayurveda than diet and oils.
Ayurveda is the science of all aspects of life and yes that includes our body, however
it also includes our subtle energetic system, our mind, and ultimately deep soul
connection to the Inner Self and the world around us.
In this weekend intensive Brad will teach you a wealth of essential models that will
help you understand the principles, science, and framework behind the practices of
Ayurveda & Tantra Yoga. There will be daily Yoga Nidra, Hatha Yoga practices &
lectures/discussions.

Highly acclaimed as one of Australia’s leading experts on the integration of Ayurveda
and Traditional Tantra Yoga, Brad Hay is a formally trained Ayurvedic Specialist and
Senior teacher in the Himalayan Masters Tradition.
Weekend is open to all levels.

Samkhya Philosophy – Cosmology & Science of the Universe

Testimonials:

Here is what some participants have shared about their experience with 'Essence of Asana':

“This has given us an understanding of a yoga practice and how it’s not all about 'striking a pose' or manoeuvring your body like a contortionist. We learned to develop a feeling of what our body needs and how to fulfil those needs.” - Rob & Amanda D

“I have found the grace and courage to be me, both on and off the mat, which has been such a gift.” - Leesa G

 

“The subtle adjustments in my form has given me a significantly more enjoyable and pain-free yoga practice.” - Ellen M
