SUMMARY:SATYA 1 | Opening the Fascia | In-Person & Livestream Online Immersion
DESCRIPTION:REGISTER HERE: IN-PERSON IMMERSION\nREGISTER HERE: LIVESTREAM ONLINE IMMERSION\nUK STUDENTS REGISTER HERE\n\nSensory Awareness Training for Yoga Attunement\nCourse Description\nIn a totally unique way\, the SATYA practice opens doorways into the interior\, providing new pathways of perception and feeling. It guides students away from “doing” movement and toward sensing\, receiving and “being” movement. As an adjunct to yoga practice\, somatic awareness leads to embodied wisdom. \nSATYA is Prajna Yoga’s “yin” style practice. All the movements are done on the floor in a flowing fashion\, without force. The SATYA movements cultivate inner listening and heighten proprioceptive awareness. This awareness is the body’s innate intelligence. By increasing our capacity for sensory awareness\, we become more sentient\, wakeful beings in the world. The exercises are non-weight bearing and involve sliding\, gliding and circular movements to reduce myo-fascial holding in the body. \nThe SATYA training\, along with yoga postures\, involves neural-muscular re-education. Like in vinyasa training\, breath is combined with movement in order to deepen the respiratory rhythm. All movements support profound physical rest of the body and prepare for savasana and yoga nidra (the yogic sleep). \nOur SATYA 1 immersion is perfect for first-time students or returning practitioners looking to reconnect with the subtle body. Experience SATYA 1 from anywhere with our livestream online option. Join Tias & Surya in real time via Zoom\, or watch on your own schedule with one-year access to all recordings. You’ll receive the full experience—guided practices\, digital materials\, and access to our vibrant online learning space—all from the comfort of home. \n\nLivestream Online\nThe in-person immersion (in Santa Fe\, New Mexico\, USA) will be livestreamed.  You have the option to attend live via Zoom or watch the recordings on your schedule. \nThe hybrid immersions bring the full depth of the Prajna Yoga experience directly to you\, wherever you are in the world.

SUMMARY:Opening the Currents of Prana: Yoga and the Five Vayus | In-Person & Hybrid Online Immersion
DESCRIPTION:REGISTER HERE FOR IN-PERSON IMMERSION\n\nCan’t make it in-person?\nExperience Yoga and the Five Vayus from anywhere with our hybrid online option. Join Tias & Surya in real time via Zoom\, or watch on your own schedule with one-year access to all recordings. You’ll receive the full experience—guided practices\, digital materials\, and access to our vibrant online learning space—all from the comfort of home. \nLearn more about our Hybrid Online Immersions here.\n\n  \nMorning & afternoon hybrid online schedule:\n9:30am – 12:30pm\, and 2:00pm – 5:00pm Mountain Time \n  \nREGISTER HERE FOR HYBRID / LIVESTREAM\n\nOpening the Currents of Prana: Yoga and the Five Vayus\nThe earliest yoga teachings describe the “winds” of the body moving through thousands of tubules\, channels and vessels. In yoga there are five primary winds located in the lower intestine\, solar plexus\, chest\, and head. In this course\, we discover the intersection between contemporary understanding of the biorhythms of the blood and nerve with the older yoga model of the five winds. We use yoga posture\, pranayama\, and somatic practice (SATYA) to activate or mitigate the strength of each vayu. In order to meet the needs of your own physical condition\, we take into account your fatigue levels\, blood pressure\, digestion\, and age. \nWe map the pathway of the inner winds throughout the body in order to bring greater wakefulness and movement to each vayu. Through dharma study\, guided meditation\, yoga nidra\, somatic awareness\, and yoga postures\, this is a transformational week of practice and study. Each day includes seated meditation\, chanting\, and inspirational dharma teaching followed by Somatic Awareness Training (SATYA). We offer both dynamic and restorative yoga practices to harmonize and enhance each vayu. In this intensive we will investigate poems of awakening from the yoga\, Taoist\, and Zen traditions to inspire opening in the physical body. \n\nHow might this workshop inform my teaching\, personal practice\, and my life?\nDecrease Fatigue\n\nIf you’ve been struggling with physical fatigue or low energy levels\, this course can help rejuvenate your body. The practices emphasizes movement that increase tissue hydration and circulation. This helps revitalize your energy and leave you feeling more vibrant and alive.\n\nImprove Digestion\n\nYour digestive health is paramount for overall vitality. If you suffer digestive issues\, it depletes the overall prana. Many of these practices target the gut\, to help improve your digestive fire and capacity for absorption.\n\nManage Stress and Anxiety\n\nIn today’s hectic world\, it’s easy to become overwhelmed by stress and anxiety. Tension often accumulates in the neck\, head and jaw. Working with the vayus will not only release strain in your body but lead to tranquility of mind. By increasing your awareness of your body’s internal signals\, you’ll gain valuable tools to better manage the flow of nerve and blood inside.\n\nAlleviate Chronic Pain and Stiffness\n\nOpening the pathway of the inner winds provides a gentle yet effective approach to relieving tension. Through mindful movements like rocking\, pumping\, and sliding\, you’ll open the internal channels and release areas of tension\, allowing you to move more freely and comfortably.\n\nConnect with Your Body’s Circulatory Flow\n\nIn our busy lives\, it’s easy to become dysregulated. Working with the five vayus offers a chance to regulate your circulatory\, digestive and respiratory systems\, leading to better overall health and a greater sense of well-being.\n\n  \n\nDay 1: Lower Intestine: Apana\nThis first day is the groundwork for the entire study. When the lower spine and its associated organs are healthy\, there is lightness and space in their entire body. This day we explore the way the “inner winds” of nerve and blood pass through the lumbar spine\, sacrum\, pelvis\, and pelvic organs. We do standing poses\, twists\, inversions\, supine poses\, supported backbends\, and pranayama with focus on exhalation. \nREGISTER FOR DAY 1\n  \nDay 2: Solar Plexus: Samana\nThe fire center of the body is difficult to control yet is the source of the body’s inner vitality. Samana is present in the upper abdomen and relates to digestive fire and the third chakra. This area is both the furnace for digestive fire and the place of absorption. This class aims to help release holding in the mid-trunk and solar plexus. In this day we explore uddiyana bandha in the abdominal region using SATYA\, twists\, forward bends\, and pranayama. \nREGISTER FOR DAY 2\n  \nDay 3: Heart + Lungs: Prana\nPrana resides in the heart/lungs and is the gateway to the experience of lightness and joy. In this day we concentrate on opening the upper ribs\, sternum\, and collar bones in order to improve elasticity of the lungs. Our emphasis is on releasing restriction in the diaphragm and mobilizing the breath. We explore the ways that grief\, depression\, and joy are regulated by prana. Practice includes backbends\, inversions\, meditation\, and pranayama. \nREGISTER FOR DAY 3\n  \nDay 4: Throat + Skull: Udana\nUdana is the upward rising breath located in the throat and head. It is the most difficult of all the vayus to control. In this day\, we will see how stress\, psychological tension\, and emotional strain result in constriction of the neck\, jaw\, and tongue. This class addresses the effects of jalandhara bandha related to the throat chakra. We do inversions\, supported backbends\, meditation\, chanting\, and pranayama. \nREGISTER FOR DAY 4\n  \nDay 5: Circulation: Vyana\nThis vayu is the most healing of all the internal winds. It involves the circulation of blood through the organs\, glands\, and tissues of the body. Vyana\, the “dispersing wind\,” promotes meditative awareness\, serenity\, and deep rest. We do floor work\, supported poses\, savasana\, yoga nidra\, and meditation. \nREGISTER FOR DAY 5\n\nWhen: August 10 – 14 | 9:30am – 5:00pm Mountain Time\n  \nCost:\n\nIn-Person Immersion in Santa Fe: Early Bird Rate $995 + tax until July 10th\, or $1\,095 + tax after (includes daily lunches)\nHybrid Online Immersion: $725 + tax\n\nDrop-In to Individual Days Online: $145 per day\n\n\n\n  \n\n**Registration includes one year of access to the course materials \n**Registration for the in-person immersion includes daily vegan\, organic\, gluten-free lunches and tea \n**Anatomy of the Vayus is good for 30-Hours of Continuing Education hours through Yoga Alliance\, and can be applied towards required hours for the Prajna Yoga Therapy Track and our 300/500-Hour Teacher Training Program

SUMMARY:SATYA 1 | In-Person & Hybrid Online Immersion
DESCRIPTION:REGISTER HERE FOR IN-PERSON IMMERSION\n\nCan’t make it in-person?\nOur SATYA 1 immersion is perfect for first-time students or returning practitioners looking to reconnect with the subtle body. Experience SATYA 1 from anywhere with our hybrid online option. Join Tias & Surya in real time via Zoom\, or watch on your own schedule with one-year access to all recordings. You’ll receive the full experience—guided practices\, digital materials\, and access to our vibrant online learning space—all from the comfort of home. \nLearn more about our Hyrbrid Online Immersions here.\n\nMorning & afternoon hybrid online schedule:\n9:30am – 12:30pm\, and 2:00pm – 5:00pm Mountain Time \nREGISTER HERE FOR HYBRID ONLINE IMMERSION\n\nSensory Awareness Training for Yoga Attunement\nDesigned by Tias Little after 30 years of education\, practice\, study\, and research\, SATYA is a somatic practice that builds mindfulness through movement. We practice fine articulated movement to open new pathways of perception and feeling. Done mostly on the floor\, SATYA involves sliding\, gliding\, stretching\, unwinding\, and core-building movements. The movements are a powerful tonic to reduce fatigue\, strain\, and holding in the body. The SATYA movements aim to increase circulation throughout all the tissues of the body. In this way\, SATYA acts as a “prana pump” to oxygenate the bloodstream and irrigate the tissues. \nWhile yoga today often emphasizes the “doing” of a posture\, SATYA encourages “being” in a movement with heightened awareness. Our aim is to tap an inner potency and to help support the body’s innate intelligence and capacity to self-regulate. All movements increase proprioceptive awareness and neuroplasticity. This practice is a therapeutic\, “yin” tonic for the body. \nSATYA is very similar to contemporary yoga that focuses on vinyasa\, combining breath with movement. In SATYA we synthesize breath with movement but without force. Done on the floor\, SATYA supports connective tissue mobilization. Deep inner listening is required to heal both mind and body. To that end\, SATYA builds meditative awareness while increasing physical vitality. Thus SATYA is mindfulness training through movement. As a movement meditation\, SATYA builds vipassana (insight) into the sensory-motor pathways of the body. This practice builds deep relaxation and clarity. The SATYA movements replenish the body by “soaking” the tissues. Thus SATYA movements can be done in conjunction with savasana and yoga nidra. \nThis training covers the foundational movements of the SATYA practice. This week will revitalize your own body by reducing fatigue and increasing mobility in your fascia. At the same time\, you will learn the key principles of the SATYA practice for the classroom. For yoga teachers who work therapeutically or with aging populations\, SATYA is a simple yet highly effective system to help safely mobilize and repair the connective tissues. \nEach morning includes guided meditation\, sound resonance\, dharma study\, visualization training\, and SATYA practice. We do yoga postures following SATYA to stabilize the joints and tissues of the body. Tias teaches anatomy of through an array of colorful slides. We study the muscular-skeletal system\, the organs\, nerves\, and glands. Tias also integrates images from nature\, sacred architecture\, and art to describe the energetic flow of prana through the body. Tias brings his background in Sanskrit\, cranial-sacral study\, yoga philosophy\, and mystical anatomy to provide a transformational week of practice and study. \n\nCourse of Study\n\ncultivate essential sensory-motor awareness\nmobilize the joints and build bi-lateral symmetry in the body\naddress low back pain\ndesign fundamental sequences that include both SATYA and asana\ndiscover the importance of spirals and counter spirals\n“it’s all about the joints”: working with tendons\, ligaments\, and joint spaces\nbeing in the “Pause”: the importance of not-doing\nusing gravity to help center inward\nre-educating the neural-muscular system and brain pathways\nlearn how to “ride the edge” through small movements\nlearn the healing potential of the movements and their effects on the myofascial system\nreduce fatigue and exhaustion\nreduce the effects of speed trapped in the body\nsense and feel the connection of the iliopsoas muscle to your spine\ndiscover how to use the SATYA movements to stretch the myofascial sheaths\ninvestigate the most current myofascial and brain information based on current research\n\n  \n*SATYA I is the first course of a 3-part 150-Hour SATYA Certification Program \n*SATYA 1 is a prerequisite for SATYA 2 and SATYA 3 \n\nWhen: August 3 – 7 | 9:30am – 5:00pm Mountain Time\n  \nCost: \n\nIn-Person Immersion in Santa Fe: $1\,398 + tax (includes daily lunches)\nHybrid Online Immersion: $1\,050 + tax\n\n  \n\n**Registration includes one year of access to the course materials \n**Registration for the in-person immersion includes daily vegan\, organic\, gluten-free lunches and tea \n**Your registration also comes with our August Series of 6 online monthly classes! \n**SATYA 1 is good for 45-Hours of Continuing Education hours through Yoga Alliance\, and can be applied towards required hours for the Prajna Yoga Therapy Track and our 300/500-Hour Teacher Training Program

SUMMARY:The Mystery of the Light: Summer Solstice Retreat | Immersion in Santa Fe
DESCRIPTION:REGISTER HERE\n\nOn the Solstice we come together to harness the once a year potency of the light. Through meditation\, movement and mindfulness we yoke to the strongest ray of the sun\, taking it down through the crown of our head\, bathing every cell in our bodies. \nIn the mid summer solstice\, we reach the apex of the sky. As the sun moves toward its zenith we stay out ’till the late hour\, dining\, lingering\, warmed by the late light. Farthest from the black of winter\, we align to the long light of the sun seeming to never die in the Western sky. Most of all we commune together to bask in the warmth of joy. We stay out late\, our hearts filled with radiance and rise early the next morning\, sit facing East\, ready to receive the all penetrating light of the solstice\, may it fill every nook and cranny of our being. \nSummer is the perfect time to uplift your practice and deepen your soul’s journey. In the summer we celebrate the effulgence of the season as we weave together yoga postures\, meditation\, SATYA\, and outdoor walking meditation.

SUMMARY:The Belly Brain & The Cranial Brain | Retreat in Northampton\, UK

SUMMARY:Marma - Gateway to the Subtle Body | Immersion in Santa Fe
DESCRIPTION:In yoga and Ayurveda\, marma points are vital acupressure points located on the surface of the body that connect to the energetic circuitry of nerve and blood. In this course we detail the 21 most important marma points that can be directly stimulated through yoga postures. Via pressure point therapy\, we activate the flow of prana at each marma point to improve circulation through the skin\, fascia\, and organs. \nWe study the anatomical location of each point\, comparing and contrasting the marma points of Ayurveda to the acupuncture points used in Chinese Medicine. We provide pressure point release in yoga postures\, through direct stimulation using bolsters\, blocks\, the floor\, and belts. In dyads\, we use restorative poses such as supta baddha konasana\, savasana\, and leg-up-the-wall pose combined with manual pressure point release. Each day\, when practicing alone\, we cover ways to impart direct stimulation on the points using small physio-balls. This course is deeply rejuvenating while providing the essential knowledge to use pressure point stimulation in any therapeutic context in order to heal the subtle body. \n\nSchedule: \n\nThursday\, October 10 | 4:00 – 6:30pm\nFriday\, October 11 | 9:30am – 5:00pm (lunch included)\nSaturday\, October 12 | 9:30am – 5:00pm (lunch included)\nSunday\, October 13 | 9:00am – 12:00pm\n\n  \nLocation: The Prajna Temple | 11 Toltec Rd\, Santa Fe\, NM \nCost: $695 + tax \nThis study was amazing for me! Helped me to integrate more and more the energetic work in yoga . Doing yoga through the prism of the marma points give more inner awareness and more space inside.” \n-Véro Coeman Darrou \n  \n“I found  extremely valuable…Using the marma points to affect the subtle body\, especially the last day’s work on the head and neck was entirely new to me. As always with Tias\, I was blown away by the depth of information covered in this training!” \n-Susan Volkan \n  \n“After practicing and teaching for many years it was so good to feel/see the practice from a new perspective – there were many aha! moments in realizing how the Asana were playing into the marma system.” \n-Jo Amy \n\n**Marma as Gateway to the Subtle Body is good for 17-hours of Continuing Education through Yoga Alliance\, and can be applied towards required hours for the Prajna Yoga 300/500-Hour Yoga Teacher Training Program. \n**View lodging recommendations here.

SUMMARY:SATYA 1 | Somatic Awareness Training for Yoga Attunement | In-Person Retreat
DESCRIPTION:REGISTER HERE\n\nDiscover the Healing Power of Somatic Yoga\nThis extraordinary benefits of this practice on your fascia\, joints\, and breath. This course on SATYA will no doubt add depth and somatic sophistication to your practice… and it is so healing. Designed by Tias Little after 30 years of education\, practice\, study\, and research\, SATYA is a somatic practice that builds mindfulness through movement. \nThe Therapeutic Benefits of SATYA and Yin Yoga\nSATYA (Somatic Awareness Training for Yoga Attunement) is Prajna Yoga’s therapeutic\, “yin” style practice. We practice fine articulated movement on the floor in a flowing fashion\, synthesizing breath with movement. The exercises are non-weight bearing and involve sliding\, gliding\, and circular movements to reduce myo-fascial holding in the body. When done on the floor\, the breath and movement together enables myofascial release without strain. All movements are done slowly\, in isolation\, and without force. The SATYA movements replenish the body by increasing circulation (the flow of prana) throughout all the tissues of the body. SATYA acts as a “prana pump” to oxygenate the bloodstream and irrigate\, or “soak” the tissues. \nThe SATYA movements cultivate inner listening and heighten proprioceptive awareness\, neuroplasticity\, and neural-muscular re-education. This awareness is the body’s innate intelligence. By increasing our capacity for sensory awareness\, we become more sentient\, wakeful beings in the world. While yoga today often emphasizes the “doing” of a posture\, SATYA encourages “being” in a movement with heightened awareness. \nHow SATYA Can Transform Your Restorative Yoga Practice\nOur aim is to tap an inner potency\, and to help support the body’s innate intelligence and capacity to self-regulate. Thus SATYA is mindfulness training through movement. As a movement meditation\, SATYA builds vipassana (insight) into the sensory-motor pathways of the body. The movements are a powerful tonic to reduce fatigue\, strain\, and tension in the body\, and to build deep relaxation and clarity. All movements support profound physical rest of the body and prepare for savasana and yoga nidra (the yogic sleep). \nThis training covers the foundational movements of the SATYA practice. This will revitalize your own body by reducing fatigue\, building coherence\, and integration of all the connective tissues of your body. At the same time\, you will learn the key principles of the SATYA practice for the classroom. For yoga teachers who work therapeutically or with aging populations\, SATYA is a simple yet highly effective system to help safely mobilize and repair the connective tissues. \nDiscover the Anatomy of Yoga\, Nadis\, and Prana\nThis immersion with Tias and Surya includes guided meditation\, sound resonance\, dharma study\, visualization training\, and SATYA practice. We do yoga postures following SATYA to stabilize the core tissues of the body. Tias will teach anatomy through an array of colorful slides. Tias integrates images from nature\, sacred architecture and art to describe the energetic flow of prana through the body. Tias brings his background in Sanskrit\, cranial-sacral study\, yoga philosophy\, and mystical anatomy to provide a transformational online course of study. \n\nCOURSE OF STUDY:\n\n\nHow to cultivate essential sensory-motor awareness by experiencing small movements out of gravity\nThe way SATYA movements benefit the lower back.\nThe effects of SATYA on the iliopsoas and spine.\nThe anatomy of the five myo-fascial sheaths and how to use the SATYA movements combined with asana\nPractice to develop an awareness of each sheath.\nHow to be in “The Pause” and experience the importance of not doing.\nReduce body fatigue.\nAddress low back pain.\nThe importance of spirals and counter spirals.\n“It’s all about the joints”: working with the tendons\, ligaments and joint spaces.\nBeing in the “Pause”: the importance of not-doing.\nHow gravity can be your friend.\nHow to “ride the edge” through small movements.\n\n\n  \nWhen: August 10 – 14 | 9:30am – 12:30pm and 2:00 – 5:00pm | Lunch 12:30 – 2:00pm \nCost: $1\,050 – price includes organic nourishing lunch meals curated & prepared in Surya’s Kitchen! \n  \n\n**This in-person immersion offers 30-Hours of Continuing Education hours\, and can be applied towards the required hours for the Prajna Yoga 300/500-Hour Teacher Training. An extra 15 hours of online work is also included should you wish to pursue SATYA certification.

SUMMARY:Wisdom of the Subtle Body - Tias Little at Spirit Rock\, Woodacre CA
DESCRIPTION:REGISTER HERE\nJanuary 31 – February 2nd\, 2020\n\nIn yoga and the meditative arts\, the body is a necessary vehicle for harnessing the potency of prana\, the essential life force. The prana moves through multiple tributaries in the body including the blood stream\, lymph\, connective tissues\, glands and nerves.\nIn this week-end immersion we animate this potency in all the tissues of the body. Our aim is less about doing or performing postures and more about sensing the subtlety and power of prana. In the way that the Wind Horse in ancient Tibet was thought to transport prayers and good intentions\, we “ride” the wind of prana to generate health\, wisdom and well-being. By alternating back and forth between meditative movement and deep stillness we bring greater vitality\, vividness and relaxation to both body and mind.

SUMMARY:Your Own Bright Light: Yoga and Zen with Tias Little and Henry Shukman at Esalen – Big Sur\, CA
DESCRIPTION:REGISTER HERE\n\n“Everyone has their own bright light\,” said Zen master Yunmen. “What is your bright light?” \nJanuary 26 – 31\, 2020\nDuring this week of deep immersion in the body practice of yoga and the heart-mind practice of Zen we explore ways to connect with the “bright light” of our own innate wisdom. \nNothing prepares us for meditation like yoga. And nothing takes us further down the path to freedom and love like meditation. Tias and Henry guide from their respective traditions while exploring connections between the two. The two practices fuel one another beautifully. By strengthening\, limbering\, calming and liberating the body from its tensions\, and by easing the heart-mind of its constrictions\, we awaken to the inner lamp of compassionate wisdom that never stops illuminating our lives. We have to slow down and go deep to find it\, but it is always here. \nThis week of shared practice is a powerful way to embody this wisdom\, all within the spectacular natural beauty of Big Sur. Whether you are starting out on the path of practice or are a long-time practitioner\, this week provides a special opportunity for students of all levels to simultaneously deepen their meditation practice while refining and expanding their yoga. \nRecommended reading:\nYoga of the Subtle Body by Tias Little \nOne Blade of Grass by Henry Shukman \n\nWorkshop Schedule\nSun 8:30pm – 10:00pm \nMon – Thu 9:30am – 12:45 pm \nMon – Thu 4:15pm – 6:15pm \nFri 10:00am – 12:00pm \n\nAbout the Leaders\nTias Little \nTias Little synthesizes classical yoga\, Sanskrit\, Buddhist studies\, anatomy\, massage\, and trauma healing.

Yet if the moment is always passing\, how do\nwe arrive at full open presence?  In this week-end immersion\, we practice being in the flow of presence through three primary qualities: Deep Relaxation\, Pure Energy and Realizing Spacious Awareness. Each class weaves together movement\, stillness\, sound\, pranayama and visualization. In each session\, we practice being in the flow of the now through energy and clarity. \n\nEmbodied Presence: Friday 1pm – 4pm \nWe must remember that the present is right in front of our noses\, all the time. We need not go to India\, refrain from eating\, or push ourselves to the brink of exhaustion in order to realize this. It is always near\, much closer than we ever could have imagined. “Without realizing how near the truth is\, we seek it far away\,” taught the Japanese Zen master Hakuin. In this class we cultivate presence via breath work\, fascia release\, standing poses and slow flow. \nIn the Flow of the Tao: Friday 6pm – 9pm \nThe flow of presence has been celebrated in China since the 6th century BCE\, as an expression of the movement of the Tao. The flow of Tao is likened to the flow of water. Like a waterway that moves incessantly\, the Tao is without fixed principles\, always changing and responsive. “It is thus that Tao is like a river flowing down the valley to the ocean\,” said Lao Tzu in the Tao Te Ching. In this class we embody the essence of water—flowing\, gliding\, pooling and streaming. \nPracticing  Presence: Saturday 1pm – 4pm  \nThis is a practice that brings us to presence. In the midst of the daily round\, it is common to get stranded in expectations about how things should be. It is then that we must remember to come back to the moment at hand. Like pressing the restart button on a computer\, we must find our way to the now. In this practice we do yoga postures\, myofascial release work\, pranayama and vinyasa to cultivate presence. Whether moving or still\, alone our together\, our aim is to be in the flow of the now. \nThe Path of Practice: Sunday 1pm – 4pm \nIf the path of practice is to be in the now\, how do we realize it? How can we grasp that which has no fixed shape and follows no definite rules? How do we live a life of presence in tune with our surroundings? In this practice\, we enter a presence much greater than ourselves\, one that always includes us. We are never apart from it. In the way that a fish makes its home in water or a bird travels through air\, through practice we are sustained by the flow of the now. In this class we practice breath work\, fascia release\, standing poses and slow flow.

SUMMARY:Yoga for Clarity\, Levity\, and Grace: A Prajna Yoga Immersion - St. Louis MO

Come set a clear intention for the year ahead to stay kind-hearted\, open-minded\, light and free. \n  \nTake individual workshops\, or register for the full weekend! \n  \n\n\nIndividual Sessions: \n  \nTWISTS TO IMPROVE CIRCULATION \nFriday\, January 10 | 1 – 4pm\, $65 \nThis class involves twisting movements for the spine\, organs\, muscles and skin. Through supine\, seated and standing poses come prepared to release blockages in the gut and spinal musculature. Twists help to squeeze\, flush and replenish the tissues of the body. They allow the breath to flow deeper\, they revitalize the blood and boost energy. After moving through a sequence of twists\, we practice pranayama to open the lungs and chest. \n\nMOVING INTO STILLNESS \nFriday\, January 10 | 5 – 7pm\, $50 \nThis class includes movement with precision of alignment. In the alchemy of our practice we unite stillness with movement\, whether in seated meditation\, flowing through postures or doing unwinding movements on the floor (SATYA). This leads to states of sublime awareness and feather fine concentration. \n\nLUNGE INTO BACKBENDS \nSaturday\, January 11 | 9:30am – 12:30pm\, $65 \nLunge into the New Year by opening your hip joints\, sacrum and low spine to prepare for backbends. Here at the beginning of the year bring energy and vitality to your body by learning to safely build a strong lower back for a back-bend sequence. Through lunges we stretch the hip flexors in order to open the heart and lungs! This improves balance\, concentration and core connection. \n\nCENTERING IN \nSaturday\, January 11 | 2 – 5pm\, $65 \nThe region just below the navel is the center of gravity in the body. Called the hara in Japan\, the dantian in China and related to the second chakra in yoga\, the lower belly is the source of breath and the origin of the deep life force. In this class we initiate every movement and every pose from the lower belly. Through active and passive positions\, we stretch\, expand and strengthen the tissues of the lower abdomen. Come prepared to create lightness\, space and strength in the core of your being. \n\nCLEAR INTENTION\, STRONG SPINE\, OPEN HEART  \nSunday\, January 12 | 9:30am – 12:30pm\, $65  \nAt the beginning of the year we are motivated to cultivate a connection to something wider and deeper than ourselves.

SUMMARY:The Heart of Silence - FULLY BOOKED/WAITLISTED
DESCRIPTION:A Prajna Yoga Silent Retreat \nSchedule: \nWednesday-Friday: 9:30-5:30 pm (Friday includes evening meditation until 6:30pm)\nSaturday: 9:30am-12:30pm \n  \nWe are in a time when deep practice is necessary to heal the schisms that persist all around us. “In an age of constant distraction\, nothing is so luxurious as paying attention”\, wrote Pico Iyer. In the midst of political and social unrest\, feelings of fracture and division get embodied. This silent retreat is designed to bring us back to our very source—our breath\, bone and spirit. Through silence we are able to touch a part of ourselves that typically gets overlooked and forgotten. When thoughts\, feelings get stuffed inside\, they can wreck havoc on the subtle body. This retreat will give support to an entire spectrum of feeling states in order to reclaim ourselves. For in silence\, the heart’s own truths come to the surface.  Through sitting practice\, SATYA\, asana\, and walking meditation we allow the winds of the heart to roam freely. In the support of sangha\, holding the noble silence together\, we move through cycles of healing\, for in silence we commune in the midst of both personal and collective loss. The alchemy of silence allows for the psyche to become unburdened. This gives us tremendous energy of renewal\, in order to be in the world with a sense of confidence\, courage and hope. Two of these silent retreats are required for candidates of the Prajna Yoga 500 hour program. \n  \nSilent Retreat Format \n\nStudents hold noble silence while Tias and Surya guide\nPractice days weave movement with stillness: SATYA\, asana and seated meditation\nSeated meditation sessions\nIndoor and outdoor walking meditations\nSavasana meditation\nStanding meditation\nHolding silence throughout day: upon arrival\, over lunch and in the evening\nSitting with dharma passages to help clarify the nature of the heart-mind\n\n  \nA silent yoga immersion is a potent means to deepen one’s practice. Through the support and power of the sangha\, we will also remain in social silence outside the class sessions in order to allow a deepening of our relationship to ourselves\, to nature and to simple tasks such as walking and eating. A silent retreat enables each of us to become more focused in the present. Removed from the demands of our daily rhythms and responsibilities\, we hold sacred silence together. \nThe retreat time is an invaluable way to nourish ourselves\, while establishing an antidote for the “habit body and habit mind.” Sustained silence is a traditional means to recognize and discard unhealthy habits of thinking\, speaking and perceiving and to realize new capacities for compassionate action in the world. \n  \n\nParticipation in silent retreats is required for students completing the 300-hr and 500-hr Prajna Yoga Teaching Trainings. \n\n\n\n\nFINANCIAL POLICY: \nPlease read before purchasing any events with Prajna Yoga as we have a firm financial policy. \n\nA non-refundable/non-transferable deposit or full payment is due at time of registration.\nIf a deposit was placed\, the remaining balance is due 30 days prior to the first day this event.\nCancellations 30 days or more prior to the start of any event\, will receive a refund credit to your internal Prajna Yoga account\, on any amount paid minus the non-refundable/non-transferable deposit.\nNo refunds or credits within 30 days of the event.\nAccount credits can only be used for events at Prajna Yoga in Santa Fe and must be used within one year of the applied credit.\nAll retail sales are final.

SUMMARY:Fundamentals of Sequencing
DESCRIPTION:Schedule: 8:30am-5:30pm (8 hours) \nThe skill and real success of teaching a comprehensive yoga class involves careful and intelligent sequencing.
