Body Poetry Yoga Enhanced Training Module
SPANDA: EMBODYING ENERGETICS
20-23 June, 2024
Bondi, Sydney
“You are the universe in ecstatic motion.”
- Rumi
This inspiring and practical training is for students and teachers wishing to wake up to the map of their subtle energetic body in order to bring a whole new dimension of awareness and awe to their teaching and life.
This training is an introduction to Tantra yoga and embodied spirituality, a path of celebrating flesh and breath as gateways to the divine. A path of celebrating the divine feminine power of Shakti ~ creative life energy.
In this module you’re invited to realise our primary agenda as yoga practitioners is in service to the flow of prana - the underlying intelligence behind all movement and all life.
It would be a great pleasure to have you join us for this illuminating journey into inner yoga.
THE PREMISE
To realise yoga asana as a profound opportunity to wake up to the underlying reality that we are so much more than what we can see with our outer-seeing eyes. To realise that we are a part of a vast field of intelligence that creates us and sustains us, and that we will one day be folded back into.
This is not a training not only about technical outer alignment, but also to reconnect to the natural inner alignment that exists when we attune to the currents of energy (pancha vayus) that underlie all movement - from the way we sit and stand, to the way a tree grows and the way the whole universe turns on its axis.
the invitation
This training is an invocation to shift our approach away from teaching or practicing fixed and static ‘poses’ and instead to wake up to the living, dancing, shape shifting nature of spanda and shakti which animates the inner world of yoga asana.
The encouragement is there for you to realise that there are no straight lines in nature. Nothing is ever standing still - everything is in a state of living vinyasa, of ever-evolving flow and fluctuation.
My invitation to you as a student and teacher of yoga is to embody this flow of grace and nature as you connect to your breath and move through your practice and your life.
what you’ll receive
To realise the meeting point between quantum physics and yoga - to be able to viscerally experience the underlying energetic field that unifies and underlies all life forms, via the philosophy and embodiment of the pancha vayus.
Understanding the significance of the breath when cueing inner alignment and energetics.
To realise our primary agenda as yoga teachers is in service to the flow of prana - to learn to feel this in ourselves and see it in our students.
To realise every asana as a full body mudra, with a profound capacity to shift our awareness and invite us into moving meditation and flow-state consciousness.
You will learn to touch everything with your hands, inner vision, and heart in a mandala (circular) energetic exchange of giving and receiving with wholeheartedness.
Through this training you’re invited to feel yoga asana as a profound opportunity to relate with the natural world, where you start to move like the body has no edges and eventually slip into the unbroken flow of presence.
From this place you might feel as if you are connected to the infinite source of energy around and inside you, as if ‘the posture never ends’… and each movement is constantly evolving from the outer (macrocosm) to inner (microcosm), and then the inner (human) to outer (world).
From that space, the energy of the universe will resonate through your bones and be carried on your voice, creating a potent holding environment for transformation.
