It all begins at the tailbone!
Lower Spinal Release

The release of the tailbone affects the entire physical body and the subtle body.

Know Your Core:
Upper Spinal Release

Release your upper spine to help lower spinal releases radiate throughout your body.

When you release the tension in your spine, your abdominals become strong and resilient automatically.

Backbends counteract the compression created by driving, aging, worrying and hurrying!

Redefining Strength: Standing
Learn to live in openness!

The Deeper class is for students who have experienced all 12 themes of the Continuing class, have been practicing Svaroopa® Yoga for 1-2 years, have experienced lasting changes in their body, and have a firmly established home practice.

Peace Begins Within
Presented in support of Peace One Day
Jeremy Gilley's vision of peace invites us all to do something tangible and rewarding in the service of peace - globally, locally, personally.

The morning includes a screening of Gilley's inspiring and exciting documentary, The Day After Peace.
