Knowing how and when to apply these practices, ancient wisdom tells us, is key to realizing the promise of yoga and to achieve lasting happinessand success.

Join master teacher, Rod Stryker for his return to Yoga Among Friends and what promises to be an inspiring and life-changing weekend. Each class includes theory and practice. All levels welcome.

Tantra Vidya, Kundalini & the Subtle Body

Through theory and practice we explore the science of Tantra, highlighting the ancient tradition’s approach to asana and beyond and its vision of where and how the worlds of mind, body and spirit meet. Class includes discussion and practice.

Sun Practice: Awakening the Force of Transformation

We focus on the approach to practice that links us to prana or life force. Sun practices allow us to increase vitality, subtle awareness, passion, and power. “Solar” energy leads to shining, both internally and externally and is the foundation for the final and most powerful stage of practice.

Saturday 1:30-4:30 PM, $55
Moon Practice: Centering and Balancing

Activation of the lunar force creates a rhythm of healing, peace, and wisdom.These practices stimulate the nurturing energy that allows us to remain calm in the midst of turbulence, steady in the midst of change. These practices are key toawakening hidden intelligence, and intuition.

Fire Practice: Discovering and Living the Ultimate Aim of Practice

The ultimate aim of Yoga practice is to awaken our inner fire––the force of Spirit. Activation of the subtle force of fire leads to extraordinary perception and living. Practice focuses on generating the energy that dissolves inertia in order to accesst the dormant channel within the spine.

Sunday 1:30-4:30 PM, $55
