“By slowing down, learning to relax the body so it can work more efficiently, and by cultivating the ability to quiet the mind, one can access one’s own essential nature: that which is peaceful and loving. I teach Slow Flow as a journey back to yourself, to be reunited with your essence and to harmoniously live with yourself.” In the latest Down Under Voices blog post, Victoria Garcia Drago (@victoriagarciadrago) describes the gift of Slow Flow. With deliberate movement and conscious breath we shed layers of misconception and illusion so that we can see ourselves more clearly. Read Victoria’s full post on the Voices page of our website (link in bio).

“Yoga citta vritti nirodha.” (Yoga Sutras, 1.2) Let us offer a common translation: Yoga is the restraint of the fluctuations of the mind. But, what does this really mean? How does it relate to asana? How does it relate to life off the mat?

Join Claire Carroll for an upcoming workshop, Introduction to the Yoga Sutras, to enhance your understanding of the Yoga Sutras by learning about its historical context, its structure and themes, and how the philosophy it contains relates to modern postural practice. This workshop is ideal for yoga students and teachers eager to learn more about its underlying philosophy and guiding texts. The workshop is on Sunday, May 19, 1:30–3:30pm in Cambridge. Sign up for the workshop on our website (link in bio).

Have you recently felt stagnant or out of sorts? Perhaps it’s the transition from Winter to Spring that has you feeling off balance, maybe it’s a new job or role you’ve taken on in your life, or perhaps it’s the sameness and repetition in your life that has you feeling a little “off”. These may be signs that your energy channels are blocked. When we release tension we can experience a profound re-connection with life. But HOW do we release such tension?
Thai Yoga Massage draws from an ancient tradition that has been used by the peoples of Thailand for removing blocks in the human energetic system. With conscious touch the Thai Yoga practitioner combines gentle stretching and joint manipulations, assisted yoga postures, and skillful finger and hand pressure to open the major energy pathways of the body with the goal of enhancing the flow of Pranic life force in the body/mind. If you’re interested in learning how to balance the body energetically, join Daniel Orlansky for Introductions to Thai Yoga Massage: Opening the Energy Pathways on Friday, May 17, 7:15–9:30pm in Newton. Sign up for this partner workshop on the workshops page of our website (link in bio).

“By using the ropes, the practitioner changes her relationship to gravity and can use her own body weight as traction on the spine. Working with motion helps to break through stiffness and create freedom in the joints so that movements become possible that were not possible before. When one is hanging on the ropes, the degree of muscular effort is substantially reduced, making it possible to stay in the asana for a longer period of time. The breath circulates with more freedom, which benefits the physiological body. This freedom moves beyond the physical and leads to freedom in the mind, which becomes expansive, calm, stable.” Patricia Walden speaks to the value of ropes in a yoga practice in the foreword of Yoga Kurunta: Learning the Ropes, a comprehensive guide to using wall ropes in your yoga practice, written by the Boston Yoga Ropes Collective (@bostonyogaropes). To learn more about the new book written by Down Under Iyengar faculty members and to read an exclusive excerpt of the book by Tristan Boyer Binns (@tristanofyoga), check out the Voices page of our website (link in bio). We're hosting the launch party for Yoga Kurunta this Saturday, May 11 in Brookline at 7:30pm. We would love to see you there!

Becoming a yoga teacher involves more than just learning names of poses. It provides the space for a deepening in your own individual practice. It invites you to consider various philosophies, histories, and lineages that may change your perspective on the world. It offers information about anatomy and physiology that is more hands-on and experiential than the lecture hall setting that you might be more familiar with. That evolving understanding of the body might ignite new understanding of the yoga poses in your own body - so much so that you want to share it with others. If this sounds like something you'd be interested in exploring, join Natasha Rizopoulos, Kate Heffernan (@krhyoga), and Michael Ponte (@michael.ponte) for a FREE Mini-Class & Info Session for 200 Hour Teacher Training on Sunday, June 9, 1–2:30pm in Brookline.

Your body holds stories. As Kris Manjapra says, ”Yoga practice shines light not just on our personal embodiment, but also on social formations of race, class, gender and sexuality, and I seek to teach within that light." Join Kris for an asana workshops to activate the body as ‘first instrument’ in a spacious, compassionate, and expansive study of our different social locations, and the different histories stored within us. We will use Iyengar asana practice to attune our own embodiment as our teacher in the paths of healing and recovery from social oppression. Our Intersectional Bodies workshops is on Sunday, May 12, 1:30–4pm in Cambridge. Sign up for this workshop on the workshops page of our website (link in bio).
