Shakti Yoga is an inclusive practice that weaves the most beneficial aspects of several wisdom traditions:
-
Hatha Yoga
-
Chi Gung
-
Sacred Dance - drawing on the expression of the Divine through ancient and contemporary Dance practice
-
Nada Yoga - Sacred Sound and Music
-
Mantra Yoga - the power of the Sacred Name
-
Breathwork - Applied Pranayam and Breath physiology to heal and nourish the body/mind system
-
Yantra and Mandala - Visual symbols to activate realignment and unification of the jivatma with the paramatma
-
Immersion into Nature as the Healing Matrix, awakening to the recognition of our inherent Oneness with all Life
Shakti Yoga is also a celebration of the Divine Feminine in all her Beauty, Wisdom and Power. As we unfold our practice through Asana, Pranayama, Mudra, Bandha, Darana, Dyana, and Samadhi, we learn step by step what it means to have a body and be in relationship with each other and the world, losing the fixation on the small 'I' as we discover a greater sense of who we truly are.
