 Words of Wisdom |
|
Guruji BKS Iyengar |
|
"Yoga offers us techniques to become aware, to expand and penetrate, and
to change and evolve in order to become competent in the lives we live
and to initiate sensitivity and receptivity toward the life of which we
are still only dimly aware."

| Birjoo Mehta Workshop |
|
Register Now - classes are Filling! |
|
 Senior Iyengar teacher Birjoo Mehta will teach a week of classes at our studio from January 25 - 31, 2008. Birjoo is an Indian teacher from Mumbai whose workshops in Hong Kong are always well attended.
Registrations are steadily coming in. Remember to register for the workshop before it is filled.
This year, Birjoo says his philosophical theme will explore "how Guruji's method of practice of asanas leads to the pragmatic understanding of the philosophy of the Yoga Sutras (and maybe Bhagwad Gita)."
It is the interplay of philosophy with the asana and Pranayama practice that make Birjoo's workshops particularly rich.
