Whether you are a seasoned practitioner or brand new to yoga, this 2-hour workshop will open you to the full potential of what yoga has to offer. Through lecture, discussion and experiential exercises we will explore the practice, history and philosophy of Patanjali’s 8 limbs of yoga that has brought transformation to people’s lives for thousands of years! Bring a pen and paper if you like to take notes and be prepared to leave with:

• an understanding how the 8 limbs translate in our modern lives
• a map to guide your own practice and life towards balance and enlightenment
• a deeper appreciation for yoga and meditation

This workshop will be recorded so if you cannot attend, you can get a link to the recording.
