Workshop with Neeta Datta

Returning in fall, 2008

 

Internationally renowned  teacher Neeta Datta will return to  teach a workshop at the Center!

This “All Levels” workshop  is open to all practitioners of yoga.  Do not miss this great opportunity to deepen your knowledge and refine your practice!

The strength of Neeta’s own practice is reflected in her deep understanding of the Iyengar method along with her precise and joyful teaching style.  Neeta Datta began her yoga study with B.K.S. Iyengar as a teenager, attending his weekly classes in Mumbai (Bombay), India.  After graduating from university, and dedicating herself to the art of yoga, Neeta began assisting Mr. Iyengar with his classes in 1978.  After 10 years of assisting Guruji, she moved to the United States in 1987.  Since that time, she has continued to travel frequently back to Pune to study and remain close with the Iyengars.

Study of Yoga Philosophy and the Sutras of Patanjali

First Sunday of the month (no class in July) 2-3:15PM

The B.K.S. Iyengar Yoga Association of Southern Nevada  presents this free class/discussion on the first Sunday of every month.  Please join us as we explore the meaning of Yoga in a manner away from the usual class of "exercises' or asanas.

Iyengar Yoga is not exercise, but is a spiritual discipline based on the eight-limb (astanga) yoga path codified by the sage Patanjali in sutras about 2300 years ago.  During this monthly class/discussion, we will learn and study the sutras; how they apply to our lives and our practices, and their relevance in today's world.  We will also learn about other aspects of the Yoga philosophy in our attempt to understand the concepts and context of the Yoga Sutras of Patanjali (Yoga Darsana). 

We hope that this monthly event will help bring us together in community and be a time of gathering as well as a learning and growth experience for those who participate.
