Nithya Yoga 8-Week Class (Class 1)
In the U.S. yoga has come to mean “asana,” or postures. Nithya Yoga re-introduces yoga as it was intended by Patanjali, who is considered the founder of modern yoga. It does not focus on attaining the perfect “pretzel,” rather it works in harmony with each person, where they are in that moment. It quiets the body, breath, and mind and brings you to a state of bliss by the end of each practice. You will find you have more clarity, and energy. Your health can become better, and you will enjoy deep restful sleep. It doesn’t matter how old you are or what kind of shape you are in. Nithya Yoga includes all eight limbs of the Patanjali’s ashtanga yoga. Each class includes asanas, pranayama (breath), pratyahara (withdrawal from worldly distractions), dharana (one-pointed focus), dhyaana (meditation). These in turn will lead to yama (social conduct), niyama (self care) and samadhi (state of bliss). Combined with the understanding that whatever state you are in when you move your body, that state will be inscribed into your very being, Nithya Yoga uses intention and visualization throughout the practice to inscribe well-being, peace, and bliss into your very core. When that state is established and radiates from your center, your whole life will become more joyful, no matter what your circumstances. This is an eight-week introductory class. Each session will build on the previous weeks instruction. Drop-ins are welcome. Please bring a yoga mat and small pillow. Dress in loose comfortable clothing. Sadaajit Ananda is a certified Nithya Yoga instructor. She recently completed a three month yoga/meditation intensive in India where all aspects of yoga were studied in-depth and a yogic lifestyle was maintained throughout the entire stay. She is honored and excited to be able to bring the reintroduction of the complete ashtanga yoga to Greensboro.
Nithya yoga adds life to your movement, not more movements to you life.
