Durga

A Six Week Exploration of Power & Creativity

 Oct 16th – Nov 20th, 7:15 to 9:pm @ The People’s Yoga

Fall is the season of the Goddess in the culture of yoga. In India, the diverse forms of the divine feminine are celebrated in a nine day festival called Navaratri . This happens just as here in the West, the Earth and we who inhabit her are turning inward to stoke the fires of our ferocious creative abundance. This fall in Alison’s Myths & Methods series, we look at Durga, the Great Mother.

Join us to embody and interpret the symbols and metaphors of Yoga Mythology via the biomechanical insights of alignment focused flow.

What to expect:

The first part of class will be an active to vigorous combo of alignment work with breath based movement. Level two poses will be offered, and deeper levels of alignment work will be broken down and work-shopped. There will be a philosophical / mythological backdrop (theme) on the topic of Durga and her place in the Yoga tradition. The last bit of our time will be story time – you do extended savasana and/or restorative work, I wax poetic about the Goddess D, and the way she is none other than you.

Sound like fun? Me too! See you there!

* This series comes after the Navaratri holiday, which takes place this year from Sept 25 to Oct 3rd
