What is Purna Yoga™?


The word Purna means “whole” or “complete” and Purna Yoga teaches that to be truly healthy we must care for all aspects of our being: the physical, mental, emotional and spiritual. Purna Yoga is the complete yoga that includes alignment-based asana, meditation, philosophy, nutrition and lifestyle.

Powerful Asana, Powerful Shavasana in Purna Yoga™

Unwind from a week of work with a concentrated and vigorous practice to release the tensions that are tied up in the body. Learn how to use internal power to create external action in asana. Powerful asana creates powerful Shavasana. Come prepared to learn a little more about yourself in Shavasana and the yogic light which lives in your Heart Center.

SAT (12:30-5:30) & SUN (10:00-2:00)
Deleting Stress and Finding Joy–the Power of Purna Yoga™

Purna Yoga was designed for fully realizing one’s life purpose, living in a state of constant connection with the joy of the soul. When we are connected with the spirit the stresses of our life melt and we feel both calm and focused.

The main focus of the weekend will be asana, with some meditation and philosophy included. The asana will consist of standing poses to empower your legs, inversions to undo the burden of gravity, twists to re-charge your digestive system and backbends to bring youth and flexibility back into the spine. By the end of the weekend you will feel centered, energized, and revitalized.
