“Do you teach any of that woo woo spiritual stuff in your classes?”
Every one of my classes starts with a dharma talk.
Dharma means purpose. The purpose of the class, the purpose of life, if you will.
This is where you’ll get introduced to some concepts of the philosophy of yoga. Because the philosophy IS yoga. The shapes that you’re making on your mat, they’re just one eighth of the 8 limbs of yoga.
So a yoga class without philosophy isn’t a yoga class. It’s a stretch class with funny names.
What I love about the philosophy is it was written 1000s of years ago and yet it is just as applicable to 2026.
It is via the philosophy that we can learn about life. But more importantly, it is via the philosophy we can learn about ourselves.
The purpose of my classes is so much more than stretching your hamstrings.
So if you don’t want the spiritual woo stuff, then don’t come to my class!! But if you’re interested, in having a little bit of a deep dive, into the philosophy of yoga, then come to my classes and we can learn together.
Because every day, we scratch the surface of this ancient philosophical practice. And that is what yoga is all about.
You’ll come for the exercise, but you’ll stay for the philosophy 🙏🏻🩷
