Ashtanga Yoga Confluence

AYC is a gathering of Ashtanga yoga practitioners from around the world to study, connect and explor An act or process of merging.

In India, the location where two or more rivers merge is thought to be an auspicious place of spiritual power. In the same spirit these highly respected teachers will join in a confluence* of classes, lectures, stories and events designed to share the profound gift of yoga they received from their beloved teacher, Sri K. Pattabhi Jois.

*con·flu·ence [kon-floo-uhns] noun: A flowing together of two or more streams. A coming together of people or things.

🕉️ Special Guest Spotlight: Dr. Manoj Chalam ✨

We’re honored to welcome Dr. Manoj Chalam to the 2025 Ashtanga Yoga Confluence!

Blending humor, heart, and deep spiritual insight, Manoj brings ancient teachings to life through the rich symbolism of Hindu and Buddhist deities. His workshops guide students on their own hero’s journey using storytelling, archetype work, mantra, meditation, and Vedantic wisdom.

Originally from India, Manoj holds a Ph.D. in Chemical Engineering from Cornell—but his true genius lies in helping people discover the deity archetype that resonates most with their path.

He’ll be offering three transformative sessions during the confluence:

🗓️ Friday, May 2

2:30–3:30 PM – Form & Formless: Hindu/Buddhist Deity Archetypes & Enlightenment
Explore how deities like Ganesh, Shiva, Lakshmi, and Tara represent different paths to enlightenment. Learn how their stories and symbols can guide your own spiritual journey.

7:30–8:45 PM – Dancing with Shiva-Shakti & The Yoga of Relationships
A lively mix of lecture and movement exploring the divine energies of Shiva and Shakti—and how they play out in our relationships and personal growth. Co-led with Catalina Carvajal.

🗓️ Sunday, May 4

2:30–3:30 PM – Archetypal Deities & the Hero’s Journey
Discover how the stories of deities reflect your own life’s challenges and breakthroughs. This session maps the hero’s journey onto your spiritual path using powerful symbolism and storytelling.
