September 25 - 27, 2009

Non-Members $275.00
Members Save: $25.00

Explore hatha yoga in its tantric context, where the union of the sun and moon ignite the inner fire of kundalini shakti. Through our practice of hatha yoga, we will awaken the physical body, the subtle pranic body, and tap the power of breath, mind, and desire. The integration of these elements stirs the primordial pool of consciousness and brings us to the threshold of creative, joyous well-being.

Topics will include: 

  • The two forms of primordial energy—prana and kundalini—and their interplay in the body and mind
  • Esoteric anatomy and the chakras
  • Asana and pranayama practice to access the subtle body
  • The unique role played by the second chakra—the center of desire, sensory pleasure, and creativity—in the awakening of kundalini
  • Bhuta shuddhi—a tantric pranayama and visualization exercise to purify the elemental qualities of the body and mind

Suggested Reading: Hatha Yoga Pradipika by Svatmarama; Yoga and Psychotherapy, The Evolution of Consciousness, Swami Rama, et.al.; Kundalini Tantra, Swami Satyananda Saraswati
