Our Healing Yoga Style

There are some distinguishing characteristics to the Integral Style of Hatha Yoga that is taught in our Yoga Teacher Training Course.

 

  • Anybody can do these poses
  • This practice teaches you how to sit still
    and train the mind to control the body
  • We practice classical postures that have
    specific benefits and are helpful for meditation
  • Yoga should be energizing and help you to
    feel relaxed and at ease for the day, not exhausted.
  • Practicing slower at times can allow for the internal
    feelings to be noticed thus deeper changes occur
  • Awareness of body brings about changes in awareness
    of eating habits and thus helps in weight loss or management
  • By longer held postures, you have time to notice the patterns in the mind
  • Intelligent sequences of poses
  • Emphasis is on therapeutics, maintenance and the internal physiology of organs and body systems (not just muscles and ligaments)
  • We teach breathing exercises and meditation from day 1
  • No overuse of same muscles groups
  • Breathing is always regulated, deep and appreciated  in the practice
  • We use “OM” and other sound healing techniques to work on the mind/body
