A Contact Yoga Workshop, along with The Essence of the Bhagavad Gita Lecture and discussion Friday and Saturday, $75.00, You are welcome to come to just Friday night alone, $20
Friday night, May 18, 7 to 9 pm: A Lively Lecture/Discussion about the Bhagavad Gita and a Contact Yoga Demo with Devarshi Written in the ancient language of Sanskrit, the Bhagavad-Gita is a compelling epic poem that holds within it all of the answers to the questions that have baffled humankind since the beginning of time, and will continue to do so well into the future. Studied by great scholars and world leaders such as Gandhi, Emerson, Thoreau, and Martin Luther King, the Bhagavad-Gita has played a significant role in transforming their lives and the lives of many who have had the privilege of experiencing the ancient wisdom of this truly inspired text firsthand. No Yoga Experience needed to enjoy this philosophical discussion.
Saturday, May 19, 11am to 4:30pm: (with a break for lunch, bring your own or go out) A Day of Contact Yoga with Devarshi Contact Yoga is a joyful form of partner yoga, but you do not need to bring along a partner to for this workhop!
Contact Yoga is all about contact. Contact with yourself, with another, with the moment, and with joy.
Come experience what happens when your yoga meets with another's. Learn to communicate what works and what doesn't for your body Learn to listen deeply & respond to the needs of another, spoken and unspoken. Learn to go beyond previous limits & fears w/ the support & reflections of others. Contact Yoga is divinely playful, so be prepared to have fun and laugh!
No partner or yoga buddy is required in order to come to class. Through relationships with others we learn and grow. You will join with many partners and groups throughout the day.
