Kripalu Yoga

Tuesday 6:45 PM to 8:00 PM

Class in French only

Teacher: Marie Laferrière

Kripalu means “compassion.” It is an approach to hatha yoga whose aim is to cultivate a meditative inner experience. Its practice invites a meditative awareness of the present moment, based on the principles of “BREATHE, RELAX, FEEL, OBSERVE, AND ALLOW” in order to integrate the body, mind, and spirit, and to connect with the body’s wisdom and the power of the True Self. The physical postures (asanas) are considered the external vehicle for the “inner posture” we seek to develop on the yoga mat (and, above all, in daily life): inner calm, harmony, and peace, by “RIDING THE WAVE OF SENSATIONS.”

Kripalu: a yoga of self-acceptance, at one’s own pace and without judgment.
