Transform your practice with The Three Pillars of Yoga


Greetings Reader -

Are you ready to re-discover the timeless wisdom of the Yoga Sutras and how their core practices of austerity, study, and devotion can transform your yoga practice and your life?

If the answer is "yes!" then you'll want to sign up for my LIVE online workshop: The Three Pillars of Yoga.

I created this 90-minute session for yoga teachers and enthusiasts who want to learn more about the three primary practices of yoga described in Chapter II, sutra 1 of Patanjali's Yoga-sutras.

In this workshop, we’ll:

  • unpack these foundational teachings through Sanskrit translations and traditional commentaries
  • offer practical tools for deeper connection and growth—on and off the mat.
  • explore the meaning and significance of each of these three foundational practices
  • discuss why these foundational elements of yoga are so important and how to apply each of them in the context of a modern yoga practice

This comprehensive introduction to the basic elements of a spiritual yoga practice is suitable for all levels of yoga teachers and enthusiasts.

You'll gain a clear understanding of how these teachings can help you experience higher levels of clarity, understanding, and joy in your yoga practice.

Yoga teachers: you'll also learn how to speak more authoritatively about these three practices in your classes and help your students make a meaningful connection to them both on and off their mats.

This course is registered with Yoga Alliance and offers 1.5 hours of CE credit.

Greetings Reader - I discovered Jivamukti Yoga in 2004. I hadn't even completed my first class before I thought, "I need to learn how to teach this!"
