Weekend Program
What to Expect
Sangraha means "a collection" or "compendium." This class is a grounding and calming sequence of postures arranged to have a positive effect on the nervous system. The postures come from the larger Hatha Yoga tradition. Eddie has put these sequences together over years of experimentation and exploration, oriented towards regulation of the autonomic nervous system leading to states of inner calm and balance.
A dynamic and fun class featuring 6 different types of Sun Salutes from Yoga Sangraha, plus six different dands from the Hindu wrestling tradition called Kushti. Followed by standing asanas, cool-down seated postures, slow breathing and meditation. Energetic but accessible to all.
A challenging class combining yoga with classical Indian physical exercise practices, including pushups, squats, and dynamic cardiovascular practices. About 40–50 minutes of Sun Salutations and strength-building, followed by calming asanas.
Learn to slow the breath down to bring deep calm to the nervous system. Eight different breathing patterns over 40 minutes, followed by relaxation. Kriyas are energizing and purifying practices. Level 2 introduces extended practices that are both energizing and grounding.
Eddie will present ideas from his forthcoming book exploring how the Yogic sense of concentration differs from our usual ideas of focus. Each lecture includes chanting and meditation practices, supporting Western science and Yogic textual references. These ideas will be covered in simple, accessible ways throughout the weekend.
