This weekend intensive will make a significant change in your body while offering you a new way to understand both your relationships and yourself.

The opening of your heart in this weekend workshop comes from both an outer, physical release and a subtle inner softening. Using the practices of asana, guided contemplations, chanting and meditation, you will experience both kinds of openings simultaneously, while absorbing the teachings of the ancients to provide a deep and enriching experience. The core opening of Svaroopa® yoga provides a pathway to deep inner experiences that take you to your heart, through your heart and beyond. The afternoon presentations and discussions on the key principles of yoga philosophy will lead you to a deeper understanding of what your heart really is. This weekend will make a significant change in your body while offering you a new way to understand both your relationships and yourself.

Taught by Vidyadevi Stillman (formerly Bombay (Cathy) Stillman) - Svaroopa® Yoga’s premier Teacher Trainer and Master Yoga’s Director of Programs.
