Pillars of Presence: Exploring the Niyamas

Sun July 25th 1:30-5pm

In-Person at Stretch Yoga Vancouver

The Niyamas are 5 yogic precepts or “guidances” for deepening presence on and off the mat. 

Introduced by Patanjali, the author/teacher behind the Yoga Sutra, the Niyamas are one of the 8 Limbs of the practice, and are considered foundational to a yogi creating strong intention in their thoughts, words and actions.  In this workshop you will engage with these precepts on a personal level, finding a deeper understanding of these ideas and creating a relevant, practical relationship.  Explore the principles through movement, meditation, interactive activities, discussion and q+a.

The Niyamas are: saucha (cleanliness), santosha (contentment), tapas (commitment), svadhyaya (study) and ishvara-pranidhanani (devotion).

Class will include movement practice, meditation and interactive classroom activities.

You’ll receive pre and post-class support materials including worksheets, Sanskrit translations & resource suggestions.
