🪷“The Path of Eight Limbs” An Ashtanga Inspired Class🪷
Thursdays, 6pm
Led by Jen
“Ashta” (eight) “anga” (limb)
A yogi does not just "do" yoga; we live and journey through these progressive stages:
Yamas: Universal ethics (non-violence, truthfulness).
Niyamas: Personal observances (purity, contentment).
Asana: The physical postures we practice in class.
Pranayama: Breath control to channel vital energy.
Pratyahara: Withdrawal of the senses to look inward.
Dharana: Intense concentration.
Dhyana: Uninterrupted meditation.
Samadhi: Enlightenment, or the realization of oneness.
The Hatha Approach: The Gateway to Spirit
In this class, we utilize the Hatha approach—the physical mastery of the body—as our entry point. There is a common misconception that the physical body is a distraction from the spiritual. In Ashtanga, we believe the opposite: the body is the laboratory.
By using the "Ha" (Sun) and "Tha" (Moon) energies to find balance, we use the physical asanas to:
Purify the vessel: Clearing toxins and nervous system "noise" that prevents deep meditation.
Build the "Container": Developing the strength and stillness required to sit in the higher limbs of concentration and bliss.
Bridge the Gap: Using the breath to connect our physical actions to our mental state.
Through the Hatha approach, the sweat becomes a sacred offering, and the alignment of the spine becomes a direct path toward inner harmony and enlightenment.
What to Expect
Breath-Linked Movement: Focus on Ujjayi breath to maintain focus.
Structured Sequence: A modified Primary Series flow to build heat.
Philosophy in Motion: Brief insights into how our poses mirror our life choices.
Whether you are looking to build a stronger body or a quieter mind, this class offers the tools to transform your mat into a mirror for your soul.
All levels are welcome. Come prepared to sweat, breathe, and evolve.
