Classes at Yoga Sanctuary provide a supportive, compassionate and inspiring environment in which students are encouraged to practice at their own pace.
Yoga Sanctuary welcomes all ages and abilities to learn yoga and healing arts in a compassionate and creative environment. We especially promote the teachings of Anusara yoga, a beautifully elegant and uplifting style of yoga founded by John Friend in 1997.
Anusara yoga is a hatha yoga system that unifies Universal Principles of Alignment with a philosophy that embodies a celebration of the heart. It encompasses a vision of totality in which each person is seen as equally divine in every part - body, mind, and spirit. The body and mind are honored as sacred vessels through which the divine radiance of supreme Consciousness can shine. Anusara yoga is an all-inclusive practice in which each student's unique abilities and limitations are deeply honored.
At the foundation of Anusara yoga is a life-affirming philosophy and an understanding that, as divine beings, we are all intrinsically good at our essence. Through yoga we recognize that we have the freedom- and responsibility- to choose to align with our divine nature, in order to live lives of meaning, value, beauty and joy.
At Yoga Sanctuary, we welcome you with warmth to re-discover the strength, vitality and wholeness which are your birthright.
