A weekend exploration of yoga’s ancient myths. The narratives of Ganesha, Kali, Saraswati, Lakshmi, Nataraja and Hanuman will be a jumping off point for students and teachers to discover their own relationship with these vibrant tales of transformation, power, inspiration, devotion, grace and beauty.  The goal is to make these lofty legends relevant to our current lives.  Each session includes storytelling, chanting, pranayama, alignment-focused asana and an opportunity to contemplate and share personal reflections that arise from our practice. Please join us for this opportunity to express your own story through yoga.  

BONUS MATERIALS INCLUDE:
Printed, full-color cards for your alter
Illustrated handouts noting the symbolism of each diety
Cueing, sequencing and theming guidelines
Sequences that embody the virtues and teachings of the dieties
Recordings of each story that you can listen to again and again
Reading list for further study
