DESCRIPTION: Yoga Beyond Asana: The Philosophy of Freedom
🗓️Sunday, April 19
🕜 1:30 PM — 5:30 PM

Modern yoga often emphasizes the physical practice of postures—but from its origin, asana was only one small part of a much deeper path.

In this 4-hour immersive workshop, we’ll explore the philosophical foundations of yoga through the Yoga Sutras of Patanjali and the ancient system of Samkhya upon which they are rooted. Together, we’ll examine how yoga understands reality, the nature of consciousness, and the root causes of human suffering.

Through guided discussion, journaling, and meditation, you’ll begin to see that the true aim of yoga is liberation—freedom from suffering, clarity of mind, and a deeper recognition of your true nature. We’ll dive into the Eight-Limbed Path of Yoga, exploring how this time-tested system offers a clear (though not always easy) path toward that liberation. 

This workshop is designed to expand your understanding of yoga beyond the mat—revealing it as a philosophy, a science, and a way of living that supports profound inner freedom and lasting transformation.

Expect a reflective and engaging afternoon that blends teaching, conversation, and personal inquiry. No prior study of yoga philosophy is necessary—just curiosity and an open mind.

If you think yoga is powerful as it is, you haven’t even scratched the surface—its true depth is revealed through the Eight-Limbed Path.
