Our training is inspired by the Tirumalai Krishnamacharya lineage who focused on various approaches and methodologies to yoga vs adhering to specific styles. In essence, we believe yoga is a holistic system for wellness and should be individualized, accessible & universal despite your background. You will experience personal transformation through two of the six Darsanas (ways of looking at life): Samkya (philosophy) & Yoga.
