Yoga & Classes
Yoga - The word ‘Yoga’ is often translated from the Sanskrit to signify ‘union’ - union of body, mind and spirit. There are many ways to practice yoga: meditation, chanting, breathing, right action... At Listening With The Body most of the classes are focused on the yoga of ‘asanas’ or postures.
In the asana practice, as Jan teaches it, by gently challenging our body, we become aware of our barriers. As we practice non-judgement of these barriers - they can be physical, emotional, psychological, spiritual... in nature - and with help of our breath, these barriers cease to be obstacles, they become our teachers.
Jan also teaches Immersion-Yoga classes where the practice includes ⅓ asana practice, ⅓ chanting and ⅓ meditation. Additionally he teaches Immersion workshops and retreats.
Jan has been practicing Yoga since 1992. He thanks Sharon Gannon & David Life of Jivamukti Yoga and Desiree Rumbaugh (Iyengar & Anusara Yoga) for their inspired, joyful teaching and lighting the way.
