PILARS OF STUDIES

Shake the Dust

LET GO OF WHAT YOU MAY BE HINDERED BY
Shake the dust
is a transformative and embodied practice of the body-heart-mind. This class is all about that sense of fluidity yet fire. Time feels like it has slowed down or like there’s no time at all. All your senses are heightened, completely immersed in and one with the task at hand, as action and awareness rise from the fullness of BEING syncing to create an effortless momentum into creation.

Through a guided poetic universe with a theme related to each practice, we journey between perpetual movement, rest, release and free movement. With shaking, jumping, dancing, intuitive moment (some yoga sometimes, too), pilates, somatics and body weight training, not to mention a carefully curated kick-ass playlist, this class is designed for anyone and will at best deliver a cathartic release, a sweaty workout, and a strong, resilient body.

Authentic Flow

Authentic flow is a somatic approach to movement through which we listen, taste, see, feel, inquire and learn to embody our bodies as a living, feeling and exploring creative process of becoming.

This is an ongoing conversation between the inner and the outer, your body and it’s interconnectedness to the environment, between every part of your bodyheartmind, and as a whole. It seeks to clarify tools and pathways for sensing and recognizing Truth, ‘Here-ness’, safety & home, as well as rapture.

Embodied Yin

Embodied Yin yoga invites us to explore our multidimensional capacities for healing by listening and sensing with the whole body-mind. It increases awareness of our mind-body connection in each dimension and through different somatic approaches, intuitive movement, classical nondual Tantra, Chinese medicine and Yin yoga, opens up space by helping to release limitations.

"These teachings are oriented toward the task of awakening to your true nature as efficiently as possible, and embodying the awakened condition in your humanity, within the context of your everyday life."- Adyashanti
