“(S)he has no disease, nor old age, nor death, who has attained a body born of the fire of Yoga.” – Shvetasvatra Upanishad

According to Tantra, the spine––and more specifically, the energy channel inside it, called Sushumna––is the abode of our soul’s untapped potential and a direct link to spirit. In this practice, we move through practice to build stillness and clarity, while awakening the central channel and unlock the energy that resides within it.

Activate your inner fire for purification which burns through unhealthy habits, physical toxins, and emotional hang-ups. The focus of the practice will be the hip & pelvic area, lower back, and abdominal region. Work on the lower chakras and major vayus is emphasized in order to eliminate unwanted “stuff.”

This is the master practice that includes Mudra. It is the most energetically profound Hatha Yoga practice. Mudra incorporates asana, breath, and bandha and is thus considered as the ultimate bridge between yoga physical and spiritual practice. Experience this internally challenging, and powerful sacred modality. Centering around activating the dormant forces within the spine, this practice will be using the combination of asana, pranayama, bandhas, mudras, and kriyas, and will focus on generating the unique energy which dissolves mental and physical limitation and allows to touch the soul and thus access the limitless potential.
