Portugal: Eddie Stern Teaching in Europe (Lisbon-Portugal) at Casa Vinyasa
Lisbon | 16-22 October, 2011
Eddie and Jocelyne Stern, Ashtanga Yoga professors from New York will be teaching in Lisbon at Casa Vinyasa. This is definitly a great opportunity to join these highly respected teachers and attend their classes and lectures, and share the profound gift of Yoga they received from their beloved teacher, Sri K. Pattabhi Jois.
Don’t miss it !
The three talks that will accompany the Yoga classes will address the concept of tristhana, the three places of action that constitute Yoga Practice: the ásana (posture), the breath, and the dristhi (point of gazing). Each talk will focus on one aspect of tristhana, and how they also relate to the triad of practice, self-study and surrender that Patanjali discusses in the Yoga Sútras. Jocelyne will lead simple meditations based on the Buddha’s practice of metta, and its correlation to kindness and compassion in Patanjali’s sútras.
