Misogyny, homophobia, racism, xenophobia, poverty, war, white supremacy, fascism, neo-liberal-hetero-capitalism all contribute to this generation’s darkest episodes.  All genuine yoga is built on the firm foundations of an integral morality. It is impossible to be a self realised liberated individual without also being a morally mature individual with a radical modern dharma.

These  workshops incorporate the practical aspects of ashtanga yoga: yogasana, dhyana, pranayama and mantra, it also will focus on the foundations of a modern yoga philosophy, a dharma, and how it relates to modern life.
