Have you or anyone with whom you have studied taken the time to totally immerse into the lifestyle of a forest yogi? This rigorous yoga training led by master teacher Glenn Black offers experienced yoga students and professional bodyworkers the opportunity to explore a deep integration of mind and body, and to move beyond their limits.
For two weeks, we immerse ourselves in this unique and profound exploration that combines a variety of experiential practices, including:
- In-depth practice of movement (asana)
- Anatomically based, hands-on bodywork
- Internal rotations of energy and consciousness (kriyas)
- Advanced yogic meditations on primordial awareness (charkasha dharana and yoga nidra)
By learning yogic anatomy and bodywork together, we move beyond simple asana and pranayama practices, and notice our own limitations in joints, connective tissues, and muscles. Adjunct practices help us purify the physical body, mental mind, and energetic nadi (nerve path) components.
This advanced training is designed for physically fit, intermediate and advanced yoga students. Bodyworkers learn new ways to assist their clients with serious problems and students advancing from less strenuous yoga classes find new challenges.
Glenn Black is also teaching The Anatomy of Yoga, August 17-22 and Samnyasa Movements, August 22-24.
Known in the yoga community as a master teacher, Glenn Black has an inspiring, no-nonsense style of teaching that comes from more than 30 years of intensive study of yoga, movement, and therapeutic bodywork. Black went to India in 1987 to study with B.K.S. Iyengar, the founder of Iyengar Yoga, and continues to integrate the therapeutic principles of Iyengar into his teaching. He is also a longtime student of the techniques of Kriya Yoga under Swami Satyananda of India's Bihar School. Like the legendary "forest yogis" of ancient times, Black has spent many years of intensive practice in solitude. He is also the only person certified by Shmuel Tatz, the creator of BodyTuning™, to teach this sophisticated system of bodywork. Black's clients include many top music, sports, and business celebrities. |
