Kaula Tantra Yoga
May 18 @ 4:00 pm - 7:00 pm
What is Kaula Tantra Yoga?
Kaula Tantra Yoga is a deeply meditative yoga practice combining standing poses and floor-based postures that increase strength, flexibility and overall health. The focus is on relaxing the body into the postures, allowing the body to soften and enjoy the longer holds of the poses (asanas). The Kaula Tantra Yoga series helps balance and activate every area of one’s life through equilibrating one’s intrinsic energy (Prana).
It is a slow-paced sequence of postures divided into 3 main series. The postures work with the lower three chakras: the root, the sacral, and the solar plexus. By relaxing these parts of our body, we may release traumas stored in the body related to childhood, family lineages, stressful experiences, and previous bodily injuries. Beginner yogis will be able to exercise all of the postures in Kaula Tantra Yoga, but this practice will also challenge advanced yogis as the real practice occurs within you.
Students flow between long meditative states cultivated in shavasana to different gentle asanas throughout the practice, always coming back to deep relaxation through careful cueing of the breath, body, and mind. A deeply nurturing and compassionate practice, students are guided to their own field of trust in their ability to know each day what their body needs from the practice– that there is no “perfect” asana. Even the teachers of Kaula Tantra Yoga don’t do the asanas ‘perfectly’ because perfection is a judgment; in this form of yoga, imperfection is accepted as being beautiful and thus Tantra sees all life’s experiences as being perfect.
Thus, Kaula Tantra Yoga gives the student the conscious freedom to push their body, connect with themselves on a deeper level, observing without judgment and being fully present, in the moment.
