Asana Angahara

Ten weeks $371

Utilising linear and/or circular swaying arrangements Asana Angahara is “the sequential arrangement of bodily shapes as well as the arrangement within these shapes” (Shadow Yoga). Nauli Kriya and preparation for inversions are introduced. The nature of the morning linear arrangement is to move prana from the body’s nerves into the blood while the swaying/circular afternoon practice shifts the energy into the nerves cleansing the blood from the day’s activity.

Includes the Eight Mother Palms (Astha Matrika), Kali’s Creative Dance (Lasya) and Shiva’s Destructive Dance (Ananda Tandava). The adaptation of rhythmic dance for the purpose of self-cultivation is a natural extension of Shadow Yoga and serves as preparation for the more internal practices of yoga. “Nrtta is that Sadhana through which the Sadhana (aspirant) rediscovers the rhythmic life currents hidden in the body’s folds and limbs by means of unimposed natural positioning”. Sundernath (Shandor Remete).
