Join two master teachers, Aadil Palkhivala and Tias Little, as they guide you through a yoga practice to enhance and balance the cranio-sacral movement in your body. In yoga, the cranio-sacral fluid is affected in every pose you do and in every breathing technique you engage in, influencing the mind-body connection and enhancing somatic awareness during the practice. Learn how the polarity between the second chakra in the sacrum and the sixth chakra in the skull is crucial to all spinal motion.
In the Chinese New Year calendar, this year is the year of the snake. In this class we free the sacrum, coccyx and surrounding musculature in order to mobilize the energy of kundalini in the first and second chakras. We emphasize twists and hip openers in order to generate a powerful surge of energy through the spine. We celebrate the auspicious, protective energy of the serpent beginning at the base of the spine and then moving through the whole body. Immerse with us on the Prajna Temple grounds for an afternoon of deep practice, meditation, and sangha sharing.
Join Tias & Surya for a very special weekend immersion at Green Yogi Telegraph in Berkeley, CA! Surya will offer a women’s practice Friday night, and Tias will offer three workshops – two on Saturday and one on Sunday.
In this series of classes, Surya and Margo combine their expertise in therapeutic yoga, nutrition, hormonal balancing and herbal medicine. Because menopause can result in a dip in energy and overall mood, we focus on practices to restore vitality, increase energy, optimize digestion and balance mood. Join our community of supportive women for this shared practice.
Mindfulness, Somatics, and Yoga is a course of study that leads to internal transformation at the deepest level. Building from our first training course offered in 1998, this body of work is a rich tapestry of yoga, pranayama, Insight meditation, chanting, myths, and more. We weave together alignment-based yoga postures, anatomy, and somatic movement. All practices are both dynamic and deeply restorative. Our aim is to help deepen your own study while preparing you to teach both online and in-person classes.
The season of spring is ideal to awaken dormant energy and to generate new growth. Surya and Jane invite you to immerse in a community of women to share the path toward equanimity, self-compassion and self-discovery. Through journaling, reflection, sharing and silent time, we practice a kind of co-enlivening and co-awakening over 3 days at the beautiful grounds of Prajna Yoga in Santa Fe.
Summer 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, outdoor walking meditation, and sangha sharing. Each day includes a meal from Surya’s Kitchen with ingredients coming from Santa Fe’s regional farmer’s market. Whether in movement, stillness, or eating, this retreat brings true nourishment.
SATYA 3 investigates the therapeutic benefits of SATYA on the nervous system, endocrine system, digestion, and circulation in order to heal the subtle body. We specifically review SATYA’s effects on the autonomic nervous system and how SATYA can heal trauma in the body. Much focus is given to working with the neck, cranium, eyes, and inner ear. Students will learn how to utilize SATYA therapeutically with individual clients.
