12 Hour Workshops
The Language of Yoga (12 hours)Asana Names, Yoga Terms and Chants in Depth
The science and practice of yoga is framed in Sanskrit words and verses. Many asana (posture) names have interesting, deeper meanings and stories behind them. Yoga philosophy, specifically the Yoga Sutras, contains many terms that have no accurate English equivalents. Learning these key terms in depth broadens our understanding of yoga and how it describes human consciousness. Certain Sanskrit chants also have quite a bit below their surface. Each session will include a short asana sequence, and go into depth with a chant and several yoga terms.
