| YOGA INSTRUCTION Classes & Workshops with Mary Mary's Yoga Teacher name given by Yogi Bhajan (Guru Partap) means something like "Infinite reverence towards enlightenment." * Group Classes * Lectures, Workshops, Retreats * Personal Yoga Coaching for Women Group Classes in 2011 to be announced About Women's Classes: Shakti in sanskrit is the universal feminine force, or "She-power, " cycling within both sexes, but most directly and literally expressed in the Yoga of being a woman. Kundalini-Shakti is the dynamic force of life that creates awareness, radiance, and fertility/creativity. The Shakti Yoga group classes create a sacred space and community for women to explore foundational spinal flexion practices and Shakti teachings along with specific asanas, kriyas, and meditations for cultivating the intuitive guidance system, preconception consciousness, radiant menopause, cycle health, sacred sexuality, and yogini self-care. Each class is a unique journey to facilitate each student's innate phenomenal capacity for healing and rejuvenation, sourced in the Shaktisangama Tantra which states that The universe is woman's form and the Yogi Bhajan teaching that Woman needs to know she is the Beauty of the Universe. Recommended reading for this class: Yogini by Shambhavi Chopra, The Path of Practice by Bri Maya Tiwari, A Woman's Book of Yoga by Machelle Seibel, MD and Hari Kaur Khalsa, and Tantric O for Women by Diana Richardson.
