Understanding the Yamas and the Niyamas

The first two limbs of Ashtanga (eight limbs) Yoga are crucial for yoga practitioners to understand. The Yamas (restraints) and the Niyamas (observances) are foundational and provide us direction in all we encounter both on and off the mat. Let's take time to explore and discuss these very important concepts.

We'll use the book "The Yamas & Niyamas: Exploring Yoga's Ethical Practice" by Deborah Adele as a guide for our discussions.

This five-part series will take place every Sunday beginning January 5 through February 2 from 10-11:15 am. The class is FREE for AYL members (both limited and unlimited memberships), or $50 for the series for non-members to be paid at date of first class.

Through guided mental imagery combined with the comfort of resting with the support of props, a profound state of relaxation can be achieved. Bring pillows, blankets, eye covers, etc. in order to make yourself completely comfortable, then allow yourself to be guided through the ultimate relaxation experience.

Space is limited. Advanced registration is required, so click here to reserve your spot!
