The Iyengar Yoga Retreat provides an opportunity to open a portal to self-realization and freedom through an individualized and supportive yoga practice while attuning to nature and the beauty that surrounds the village of PachaMama.
The Iyengar Yoga style explores the family of asanas as they were taught by renowned teacher B.K.S Iyengar.
Iyengar Yoga emphasizes precision in the asana, using props, accurate sequences and timings, to cultivate respect for the body and prevent physical injuries. A new quality of the practice is revealed through this unique lens – the quality of “effortless effort”.
For many, Iyengar’s language of yoga is a gateway into the ancient art form. Its creative use of props combined with Vaya’s meditative approach to yoga allows the asana to be embodied fully and deeply transcending the limitations of physical and mental flexibility.
A unique meditative approach using the Asana as a laboratory to observe how we manage life through space and time, the here and now, to align and to know oneself. Cooperation between the mind and body is the goal.
This Iyengar Yoga Intensive will create a container by way of daily practice including:
This work is a deep dive into the core of one’s being, exploring all of the following bodies of work:
Through the practice of decoding, rewiring, synchronizing, and healing, this is a journey from the “self” – by oneself – to “selflessness”.
This awareness work is a great tool to be the “observer.” Observing one’s actions, non-action, and re-action facilitates the ability to learn and understand oneself on a deeper level allowing the oneness into the place beyond space and time.
Part of this workshop is to deepen the connection with the natural world, to learn to connect with the wildlife and plants in a way that nourishes the soul.
The workshop includes one evening bird and nature tour led by Tyohar. Meet and learn about the winged feathered allies of this forest and live your yoga through the union of self and nature.
