Dharma Yoga Asana Clinic
These highly valuable clinics will focus on proper placement and alignment in the practice of each pose. You will also learn the spiritual intention of the poses. As Sri Dharma Mittra always says in class: “Each posture is designed to bring the practitioner a specific state of consciousness.” There will be a Q & A period. This workshop is intended to give students the time to slowly work on the chosen postures and therefore make rapid progress.
