Join us at Āgamā Yoga Centre (AYC) as we celebrate the the Heart of Yoga this winter solstice with a 5-day intensive as well as post graduate studies for current yoga teachers.
Each June, we celebrate the Heart of Yoga at Āgamā Yoga Centre. There are many reasons to celebrate at this time of year - we honour TKV Desikachar on his birthday on the 21 June, as well International Yoga Day.
AYC is thrilled to bring together a full week of classes to dive deep into the yogic teachings, for all levels of interest and experience.
This years’ Heart of Yoga Week theme will centre around the 8 limbs of Yoga, as taught by Sri Desikachar.
What’s On
Daily yoga class
Mon 16 - Fri 20 June, 5.15-6.15pm
Join us for our daily yoga intensive - a special class offered each day. We’ll use a step-by-step approach embracing each of the 8 yogic limbs. Expect a particular focus on our social and personal relationships.
It’s often said that the mind is our best friend and our worst enemy, both the problem and the solution. Classes during our annual Heart of Yoga week, will focus around self-inquiry or svādhyāya, and explore patterns in our ways of thinking, how we relate to the outside world as well as various aspects of ourselves.
Each class builds on the previous, inviting a greater sense of clarity as we progress through the week.
