Most people who find their way here have practiced for a while. Maybe you teach. Maybe you’ve done the trainings, sat with some texts and fascinating quotes, chanted the mantras, and still sense a room behind the room, one you haven’t been in yet.
There are many, and here, we unlock one. We teach the philosophy as it was handed down, keep the lineage whole, and make the music and the people it came from part of the practice. A year of weekly study, online. Seven days in Rishikesh, India, with the teachers who live it. And if you’re new to all of this: welcome. The door is the same size for everyone, whether you’re just starting or have been part of this world for years.
Yoga, handed down by hand.
You’ve done the poses. Come further in.
Your way in…
Shoes of a Yogi
Yoga immersion and philosophy, online. The texts, a little practice, and good company.
A year of connecting to the Yoga Sutras, and other ancient yogic texts, such as the Upanishads and Holy Vedas, and traditional mantras, in the way they were meant to be read: slowly, with other people, and with an embodiment practice so the words have somewhere to go. One hour a week, live and recorded. Guest teachers from the tradition and different yogic lineages once a month. A small WhatsApp group for everything in between. We begin in January 2027.
Living Lineage: India
Eight-day retreat in Rishikesh. Music, yoga, and the people who keep both alive.
Twelve people, seven days, one river. Morning music and yoga practice before the little city wakes up. Traditional meditation, breath, chanting and movement by the Ganga. Afternoons with musicians and teachers who’ve spent their lives inside this tradition, learning harmonium, tabla, raga and the yoga of sound from the people who carry them. Temples, sacred sites, and ceremony. Kirtan at dusk, evening aarti at the river, and enough empty hours for all of it to settle. Come as you are. April 2027, by application.
Why walk through the path of the lineage?
Most yoga arrives in the West with its roots faint or missing altogether. The poses make the trip; their purpose often doesn’t. Nobody is to blame for that, but it leaves many people practicing something beautiful without ever being told what it’s for.
Everything taught here has a name attached to it, and behind that name, another. Teachers in India, and theirs. The Vedic tradition, the Sutras, the rishis who first wrote them down, and the teaching as it came through revered gurus like Maharishi Mahesh Yogi and Guru Dev. Western teachers have their place here and are honoured too, Bernie Clark and Eoin Finn among them. We bring what years of modern dance, kirtan and bhajans, and Indian classical music have taught us about the body, listening, and manifesting. All of it comes into the room with us. The spine is the lineage, and our work is to pass it on with the same care it was handed to us.
