We’re so niche
We've never been a Yoga Studio.
In a Yoga Studio world of multiple classes every day, teachers with vastly different Yoga trainings and experience and various styles that focus primarily on uni-dimensional Yoga, we're the niche you never knew you needed, until you find us. Time and time again, everyone from beginners to seasoned teachers find in our space what they've been looking for all along: ancient, relevant, practical, accessible, potent, multi-dimensional, transformational, healing Yoga. Through birth, life and death, health and illness, feasts and famines, administrations, agreements and disagreements, seasons and pandemics, we are honored to be your Yoga "shala," your Yoga home.
Do we have groups, class packages, monthly subscriptions? Absolutely. It's how a significant percentage of you began with us, and we warmly welcome everyone into these powerful. flourishing, accessible classes. Whomever is teaching you will guide you through a low key, vibration elevating practice based in Sri T Krishnamacharya's teachings.
We’ve been called a boutique Yoga studio, which is somewhat closer to how our students see us. The primary difference between us, a Yoga School and Yoga Therapy Center, and them, the Yoga studios, is the deep relationship we foster between you and Yoga, as a lifestyle, rather than a hobby. In the spirit of Yoga’s ultimate goal, kaivalyam, independence, we ensure you are not reliant on coming in to see us every day in order to be a Yoga practitioner. Factually, most of our students practice daily, at home. They use their tools, in life. After a most concentrated period of learning, they see us less frequently for home practice guidance, yet attend trainings, workshops and classes to continue learning, for practice variation and challenges in groups settings, and for connecting with each other.
We give you the tools and guidance to create enough space between thoughts, so you can think straight. To process your emotions, so you can feel. To refine your memory, so the past doesn’t restrict you from seeing clearly. To come into the present moment, so you can be.
Our students are independent. In the spirit of the Taittiriya Upanisad, the teacher is the garden stake the the vines climb up to support them, to reach their ultimate ripeness. So I am there, steady, and your progress is literally rooted in my presence, in Yoga Foundation’s presence. We are connected in this unique way, a stable fixture for your growth. It is through this relationship, Yoga becomes a key strategy to uncover and live with your highest potentials.
