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!

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
