Kripalu Yoga, known as the "yoga of consciousness", values both ancient yogic traditions and the inner wisdom of each practitioner's body/mind. Physical postures, breathing techniques, deep relaxation and meditation are used to cultivate many of the benefits of yoga, including strength, flexibility, calmness, and overall well-being.
Kripalu means "compassion". In keeping with it's name, approaches the practice of yoga with the intentions of awareness, self-acceptance and authenticity. In this context, yoga is seen as a journey rather than a destination. This approach to yoga is less about achieving a certain form or reaching a particular goal, than it is about being fully present for the feelings and experiences of one's own yoga practice as it unfolds moment to moment.
I believe that a peaceful way of being starts on the mat & is carried into the world by each person whom we touch.
Students should bring their own mat and any props needed (blocks, yoga straps/tie, blanket, eye pillow). Dress in layers to ensure comfort throughout the class. It is recommended to abstain from heavy meals prior to class.
