Jivamukti Yoga is a dynamic and intellectually stimulating practice that integrates physical asana, hands-on adjustments, pranayama (breathing exercises), meditation, Sanskrit chanting, yogic philosophy, and deep relaxation. Classes are ever-evolving, with music playing an integral role in creating an immersive experience.
In this special masterclass, we will focus on building a strong and steady foundation for all standing postures. From Mountain Pose (Tadasana) to Downward-Facing Dog (Adho Mukha Svanasana), and from Warrior Poses (Virabhadrasana) into Forward Bending (Uttanasana), we will cultivate a deeper connection to the earth—becoming more grounded and stable in our practice and in our daily lives.
🔥 About Durga Devi 🔥
Durga Devi (Denise) was given her name by her beloved teachers, Sharon Gannon and David Life. A former dancer and competitive gymnast, she was first introduced to yoga in 1994. While the physical practice felt natural, it was the chanting, philosophy, and ancient teachings that truly resonated with her.
As one of the original teachers at the London Jivamukti Yoga Centre, Durga is an Advanced Certified Jivamukti teacher with extensive experience. She taught at the New York Jivamukti Centre from 2002 before moving to the UK to help establish the London studio. Her kirtan training with Jai Uttal and Bhagavan Das has deeply influenced her teaching, with chanting remaining a key element in her classes.
Join Durga for this transformative session, where strength, stability, and surrender come together in practice. 🖤
