Yoga In The Park

Come salute the sun each Sunday morning with a salutation in the park. Yoga is the practice of reconnecting with the earth, sthira sukham asanam: the connection to the earth should be steady and joyful. What better place to find that connection than amongst the trees, birds and greens of Old Montreal?

 

Meet us at the Yoga studio before 10:55 or in the park. Classes should be prepurchased at Luna Yoga. In the case of rain, classes will be held inside at Luna Yoga. Don’t forget to bring a yoga mat or towel!

Sundays 11h-12h30

Jivamukti Immersion Weekend

Jivamukti Yoga, Pranayama and Meditation
with Dechen Thurman

This class applies the five koshas (bodies) directly to the asana practice. All masters agree that correct breathing is fundamental to adventurous engaging and sustainable practice. Students in this course will learn how to improve their postures through assessment of the cycle of breath. Not only will the physical posture improve rapidly under this examination, the mental and emotional obstacle responsible for the apparent physical limitation will be revealed. Whether you are a beginner or advanced practitioner of asana, your practice will never be the same. Patanjali describes aspects of yoga that remove the effects of past karma. This approach to asana directly addresses this issue and makes it accessible to the modern yogini. The meditation portion of class introduces a method of breathing not found in any yoga book.

Dechen Thurman is an accomplished actor, yogi, professional Ohashiatsu® healer, and teacher of Buddhism and Yoga. He has traveled often to India and Tibet, has studied at New York University’s Tisch School and at Columbia University, and currently teaches at Jivamukti Yoga Center in New York City. Jivamukti Yoga, which Dechen first discovered at the age of 19, is an enlightenment system that draws deeply from past wisdom, is planted firmly in the needs of today’s yogis and yoginis, and predicts a bright future eventually unfolding through nonviolent motivation, positive vibrations, ecstatic gyrations, scriptural resuscitation's, and meditative contemplations.
Saturday October 16th, 2-4pm

 

Guru Yoga : It's Not What You Think It Is
with Matthew (Satyavira) Lombardo

This class focuses on our relationship with the Guru, what that means , who can it be, and how does it fit in to our "regular" life. This class will feature a dharma talk on how to take a teacher properly, a vigorous vinyasa krama practice, and a formal Tibetan Buddhist Meditation that will set fire to your practice.

Since 2003, Matthew has taught yoga philosophy, asana, and Buddhism in and around New York and the United States. His classes are physically challenging, mentally stimulating and spiritually effervescent.
