The yoga style in our classes is hatha based and usually includes some vinyasa flow and yin yoga. One of our favorite styles of yoga is Anusara, although we don't currently have an Anusara teacher, we hope that will change in the future.
Anusara (a-nu-sar-a), one of the styles that we offer, meaning “flowing with Grace,” “flowing with Nature,” “following your heart.” was founded by John Friend in 1997. Anusara yoga is a school of hatha yoga which unifies a non-dualistic, life-affirming Tantric philosophy with Universal Principles of Alignment. It takes the premise that each of us is an expression of Supreme Consciousness. The highest intention of the practice is to awaken to the innate goodness inside oneself, to recognize our gifts and talents and then use them to serve life fully.
Anusara yoga is epitomized by a "celebration of the heart" that looks for the good in all people and all things. It is also highly known for its highly therapeutic and healing Universal Principles of Alignment.
The highest intention of practicing Anusara yoga is to align with the Divine. As we deepen our alignment with the Supreme, we step deeper into the flow of Grace. As we step deeper into the flow of Grace, what was once challenging becomes easeful and we begin to live from a place inside of wholeness, self-empowerment, freedom and vibrant health.
