The event offers an in-depth exploration of the many facets of yoga practice—from therapeutic to philosophical. “Since 1977, Omega has been a place where people from all walks of life come for lifelong learning, inspired living, and building community,” said Carla Goldstein, director of external affairs and the Women’s Institute at Omega. “During Being Yoga, beginner and experienced yoga practitioners gather in community to learn from leading teachers about the depth of this ancient tradition and the promising ways yoga can enhance their modern lifestyle,” concluded Goldstein.

    For Immediate Release Contact: Chrissa Pullicino October 29, 2007 Phone: 201.951.8767 Omega Institute to Host Being Yoga Conference in Florida More than 35 Top, National Yoga Instructors to Teach Participants How to “Live Your Yoga” RHINEBECK, NY – In what might be characterized as a surprise to some, yoga, which in Sanskrit means “union,” is considered one of the “fastest growing trends in the United States,” according to Google Trends, a search engine that compares the world’s interest in given topics by analyzing their popularity online, in the news, and geographically. That development is, according to an Omega spokesperson, “partially the result of the work we’ve been doing at Omega Institute for 30 years.” It’s also one of the reasons Omega is hosting a “Being Yoga” Conference in Florida this November, according to Carla Goldstein, Omega’s Director of External Affairs. The conference will be held from November 2-5, 2007, in Fort Lauderdale, Florida. “Here at Omega we’ve known for many years what others are discovering every day: that yoga holds tremendous potential for strengthening and healing us as individuals and society,” said Ms. Goldstein. “As more people practice yoga we grow the possibility to create a society with more compassion and less violence.” Guests of the conference, which is being held at the Harbor Beach Marriott Resort & Spa, will have the opportunity to immerse themselves in the study and practice of yoga in its many forms and to learn what it means to live yoga on and off the mat. While yoga is now available in many communities, education may be limited to the style and approach of a particular teacher, making it challenging for students to get comprehensive exposure to the richness of the tradition.

  • Destination Within Sacred Homework
    Destination Within Sacred Homework You will have three assignments and an exam to finish in order to complete your 200 hour Certification. These are assigned with love, knowing they will enhance and enrich your yoga practice to the extent that you devote time and focus to them. I personally have completed projects of a similar nature and found them extremely beneficial and enriching in both my personal yoga practice and my teaching career. You will complete the following (a total of 53 hours of homework) for certification: Practice Teaching, recording, and taking your own classes 7x Reading Projects – 7 books and book reports Embodiment Project Anatomy DVD & Coloring Sheets Practice Homework Final Exam You should work on these in the intervening 6 months between our 2 modules. The exam will take place at home after both modules are completed. Budget your time wisely and get your work done as early as possible. The four months will pass quicker than you think. You may also take time after the 2 nd module to finish the homework. You will not receive your certificate until the homework is complete – it is part of the course curriculum. Practice Teaching You will need an audio recorder for this exercise. If you have a smartphone it’s possible you can use that. You will design seven different sequences. One will be Prana Flow Vinyasa, one will be Forrest yoga and the other five can be any format you choose. You will design the sequences. You will then teach the class and record yourself teaching it. This can be a regular class you are teaching to the public, a private class you teach to volunteers, or you can have a ghost class where you just speak into the audio recorder with no live students present.

  • Understanding Shoulders in Vinyasa Flow
    Teacher Training Consciousness in Motion Vinyasa yoga teaches us to cultivate an awareness that links each action to the next—on the mat and in our lives. By Shiva Rea Sit back and relax. Take in these images and see if you can sense the underlying pattern: the flow of the seasons, the rise and fall of the tides in response to the moon, a baby fern unfurling, a Ravi Shankar sitar raga or Ravel’s “Bolero,” the creation and the dissolution of a Tibetan sand mandala, the flow of Suryanamaskar (Sun Salutation). What do these diverse phenomena have in common? They are all vinyasas, progressive sequences that unfold with an inherent harmony and intelligence. “Vinyasa” is derived from the Sanskrit term nyasa, which means “to place,” and the prefix vi, “in a special way”—as in the arrangement of notes in a raga, the steps along a path to the top of a mountain, or the linking of one asana to the next. In the yoga world the most common understanding of vinyasa is as a flowing sequence of specific asanas coordinated with the movements of the breath. The six series of Pattabhi Jois’s Ashtanga Vinyasa Yoga are by far the best known and most influential. Jois’s own teacher, the great South Indian master Krishnamacharya, championed the vinyasa approach as central to the transformative process of yoga. But Krishnamacharya had a broader vision of the meaning of vinyasa than most Western students realize. He not only taught specific asana sequences like those of Jois’s system, but he also saw vinyasa as a method that could be applied to all the aspects of yoga.

  • Understanding Shoulders in Vinyasa Flow
    Teacher Training Prescriptions for Pranayama YJ profiles the pranayama practices of six yoga traditions and finds differences ranging from the subtle to the profound. By Claudia Cummins The elegant shapes and impressive contortions of the asanas may be the most eye-catching element of hatha yoga, but yoga masters will tell you they’re hardly the point of practice. According to yoga philosophy, the postures are merely preludes to deeper states of meditation that lead us toward enlightenment, where our minds grow perfectly still and our lives grow infinitely big. But just how do we make the leap from Downward Dog to samadhi? Ancient yoga texts give us a clear answer: Breathe like a yogi. Pranayama, the formal practice of controlling the breath, lies at the heart of yoga. It has a mysterious power to soothe and revitalize a tired body, a flagging spirit, or a wild mind. The ancient sages taught that prana, the vital force circulating through us, can be cultivated and channeled through a panoply of breathing exercises. In the process, the mind is calmed, rejuvenated, and uplifted. Pranayama serves as an important bridge between the outward, active practices of yoga-- like asana--and the internal, surrendering practices that lead us into deeper states of meditation. “My first American yoga teacher, a guy named Brad Ramsey, used to say that doing an asana practice without a pranayama practice developed what he called the Baby Huey syndrome,” says Ashtanga teacher Tim Miller. “Baby Huey was this big cartoon duck who was very strong but kind of stupid. He wore a diaper.
