JUNE 27th - JULY 18th, 2024
CURRICULUM
Our programmes are results driven with a focus on mindful movement mastery, optimum alignment and breath, with a unique inversion focus and revolutionary teachings in yogic philosophy.
Physical aspects have a very strong breath focus - accessing breath blockages and re-instating breath system as taught by the God father of Ashtanga Yoga Krishnamacarya.
We have a strong classical tantra component teaching yoga alliance requisites plus a deeper portion pertaining to classical tantric philosophy, sanskrit, mantra and mantra music. These include ‘secret or confidential’ mantras studied and practiced whilst living in classical tantric temples as full time monks as our teachers have.
