We are grateful for the verbal and energetic transmissions received from student to teacher in this tradition, as they are tried and tested methods to reach internal balance and to promote growth through Yogic practices. Lineage based teachings ensure that you are getting pure, undiluted knowledge, and guidance towards your own, unique illuminated experiences.

• Discernment of applying modifications to asanas is taught to create an inclusive classroom environment where everybody has support, where function of the pose is valued over form.
