Fundamentals of Yantra Yoga with Luke Karamol
Discover Yantra Yoga, the Tibetan Yoga of Movement, an authentic and living tradition of working with the three gates of body, speech, and mind. During this retreat, we will explore a unique series of positions and movements which, when combined with conscious breathing, harmonize our energy and allow the mind to relax and rest in its authentic balance. Yantra Yoga is an ancient system based on the text The Union of the Sun and the Moon, written in the 8th century by the master and translator Vairocana, and transmitted to the West in the 1970’s by the Dzogchen master Chögyal Namkhai Norbu.
This introductory course will include: Nine Breaths; movements for Loosening the Joints; Eight Movements for Purifying the Prana; movements for Controlling the Channels; Rhythmic Breathing and the Vajra Wave. Yantra Yoga can be learned by anyone regardless of age. It is perfect for both physical and mental well-being and is an indispensable tool for supporting any meditation practice.
