Yogic Life Roadmap: the Sutras

ABOUT

This is an opportunity to dive into the Sutras of Patanjali to understand how useful this text is for modern practitioners as it constitutes the roadmap towards embodying the yogic path. The course is designed as a deep immersion into the Yoga Sutra to develop a clearer understanding of the path offered by Patanjali whilst making it relevant to our every day life, yoga teaching and practice. On a more experiential level, we will explore practices and strategies mentioned in the Sutras, moving towards the more subtle aspects of Yoga. Alongside this we will look at the Sutras in the wider context of Yoga philosophy unpacking its links with the Bhagavad Gita, Buddhism and the Upanishads; as well as the connections with Hatha Yoga and Tantra. There will be also space to explore advanced asana practice at the beginning of each day related to the themes we will discover on our journey. WHO IS THE COURSE FOR? Yoga teachers who would like to refresh their philosophical studies, clarifying some ideas and looking for inspiration on how yoga philosophy can be shared with students. All yoga practitioners who are interested in Yoga philosophy but struggle to approach this ancient text alone as it often sounds quite confusing! : ) TIMES & COSTS 6 days, timings can vary according to requests. Price will vary depending on venue / location. ACCREDITATION If you are a yoga teacher, this course qualifies as 40 hrs CPD with Yoga Alliance US and Yoga Alliance Professionals.
