SUMMARY:Alignment Workshop
DESCRIPTION:Tuning into the Architecture of Alignment\nIn a world that often feels fragmented\, yoga is an exploration of bringing ourselves back into a single\, focused state of being.\nJoin Angel for an immersive workshop dedicated to the pursuit of Alignment. Moving beyond the mere “shape” of a pose\, we explore alignment as a holistic state of being through the Four Pillars: \nStructure: Using anatomical geometry to find stability (Sthira) and ease (Sukha). \nBreath: Integrating the breath as the internal thread that aligns movement with life force (Prana). \nNature and Season: Grounding our energy to mirror the elements and the changing tides.\nStep into the rhythm of Ashtanga and find your internal architecture.

SUMMARY:Introduction to Pratyahara: Finding Stillness in a Noisy World
DESCRIPTION:In an age of constant digital stimulation and external noise\, the practice of Pratyahara (the withdrawal of the senses) offers a vital sanctuary. Often described as the “bridge” between the physical and the spiritual\, Pratyahara teaches us how to move our awareness away from external distractions and toward the quiet landscape within. \n  \n\nWhat to Expect \nIn this immersive 2-hour workshop\, we use Pranayama (breathwork) as our primary springboard. By refining the breath\, we naturally quiet the mind\, allowing us to begin the process of “cleaning the basement”—releasing the subconscious clutter and mental noise that often hold us back. \nThrough a blend of guided movement and breath awareness\, you will cultivate: \nSteadiness in Action: Discover how to find physical and mental stability\, even in challenging postures. \nBreath as Medicine: Learn to find a deep sense of ease and rhythm within your breathing patterns. \nThe Power of Regularity: Understand how consistent practice builds a resilient nervous system. \nOne-Pointed Focus: Develop an internal “anchor” that leads to Ekagrata—the ability to focus the mind with clarity and purpose. \nIs this for me? \nWhether you are looking to deepen your existing yoga practice or simply seeking a way to manage daily stress\, this session provides practical tools to help you reclaim your focus. Join us as we transition from the chaos of the outer world to the peace of the inner self.

SUMMARY:The Bhagavad Gītā as a Yoga Manual with Rami Sivan
DESCRIPTION:The Bhagavad Gītā – Practice\, Psychology\, and Integration\nBeyond the physical practice of āsana lies a roadmap for the soul. Many of us know the Bhagavad Gītā as a sacred text\, but it was originally intended as a practical guide for navigating life’s most difficult moments. Join us for a specialized two-weekend intensive where we bridge the gap between ancient wisdom and modern life. This workshop moves beyond theory\, presenting the Gītā as a “yoga manual” for inner conflict\, ethical action\, and psychological clarity. \nWho is this worskhop for and why join? \nWhether you are just starting your yoga journey\, a regular practitioner\, or a teacher\, this workshop will empower you to take ownership of your practice and your Dharma—aligning your duties and life purpose with harmony. \nWorkshop Rationale \n\nThe Bhagavad Gītā is not a chaptered philosophy book but a progressive yoga text addressing: \n\ninner conflict\,\nethical action\,\nmeditation\,\ndevotion\,\ndiscernment\,\nand liberation within life.\n\n\nThis workshop presents the Gītā as a practical companion to āsana\, prāṇāyāma\, and meditation\, rather than a purely textual study. \n\n\nLearning Outcomes \n\nParticipants will: \n\nUnderstand the architecture of the Gītā without studying all 18 chapters.\nApply Karma Yoga to daily life and teaching practice.\nIntegrate Dhyāna\, Bhakti\, and Jñāna Yoga coherently.\nRecognise the Gītā as a psychological and ethical map for yoga practice.\nGain tools for personal reflection and teaching integration.\n\n\n\nMap Your Practice: Use the Gītā as a psychological tool for discernment and liberation. \nAbout Swami Rami Sivan\nAcharya Rami Sivan is a distinguished Sri Vaishnava priest and Vedanta scholar with over 40 years of experience. A founding member of the Australian Council of Hindu Clergy\, he is internationally recognised for his mastery of Sanskrit and profound hermeneutical insights into sacred texts such as the Bhagavad-Gita\, Mimamsa\, and Vedic philosophy.

Whether you have never attempted a handstand or are simply looking to deepen your relationship with this beautiful inversion\, this workshop offers a grounded\, supportive space to explore.\nTogether we will move through the foundations — building the strength\, body awareness\, and quiet confidence that handstands ask of us.
