The famous Yoga Sutras of Sage Patanjali contain, in concise and elegant fashion, a statement of the beginning, ending, and purpose of existence. Explore through chanting, discussion, and asana practice, the relevance of this Vision of Reality while living in 21st century Western society—a condition undoubtedly far removed from Patanjali’s experience. Embrace chanting the Sutras in the original Sanskrit; share in discussions inspired by the ideas within the Sutras; and actualize the Sutras’ purposeful messages in asana sessions. The asanas classes are grounded in the Iyengar style of practice.
