Yoga
|
Ananda Yoga, developed by Swami
Krivananda who is a direct disciple of Paramhansa Yogananda, is a
classical style of hatha yoga that uses asana and pranayama to
awaken, experience and begin to control the subtle energies within
oneself. Its object is to use those energies to harmonize body, mind
and emotions and, above all, to attune oneself with higher levels of
awareness. Rather than athletic or aerobic practice, yoga is a
relatively gentle, inward experience. Use this class to learn proper
form for basic poses and the importance of breath. |
