Schedule: Saturday, Feb 21, 2026

12:30-5:30pm

The Yoga tradition is rich in stories which have survived the ages. Many of the postures we practice today are steeped in history and can be traced back the ancient stories of the Hindu gods, Vedic sages and sacred animals of India.

In this workshop we will hear the stories behind the asana, and then practice the asana inspired by the legend, to discover what each story can teach us as we practice the posture. Much like using a prop to help us accomplish a particular posture, being aware of the inspiration behind the posture can add a deeper dimension as we practice. For instance, most practitioners are aware that Hanumanasana (the Split) is named after the Hindu monkey god Hanuman, but few may know how the determination of Hanuman and his loyalty to Ram has inspired the posture.
