    2019 PROGRAMS 2019 sivanandayogaranch.org | 845.436.6492 sivanandayogaranch.org | 845.436.6492 WELCOME TO THE YOGA RANCH Om Namo Narayanaya, Blessed Self, Whether you are considering your first Yoga Vacation, or a residential Yoga Teacher Training Course, or you are a Yoga teacher preparing for a more advanced training, or an old friend of the Ashram returning to nourish your personal practice with a seasonal Yoga Retreat, we welcome you. And we especially welcome you who are relatively new to Yoga and Ashram life. We would like to prepare you for a new kind of unforgettable vacation. What is your “bottom line” for a vacation? A vacation is both a renewal and a reward for many hours of hard work that have opened the space in life where you can get away, rest and renew, and reconnect to what is really meaningful. Yoga, by definition, is that reconnection and renewal. Yoga— physically, emotionally, philosophically, integrally, mystically, and spiritually— offers pathways to that reconnection. It can be hard work, but it is work that strengthens, invigorates, and nourishes the body, mind, and soul. Come join us to rediscover your inner sacred space with twice daily Yoga asana classes and meditation satsangs. Explore the sacred nature that feeds our bodies, minds, and souls with quiet forest walks, or dig into the Ashram gardens that provide us with fruits, vegetables, and flowers. The bottom line of Yoga living is delving into the sacred. This is the goal of an Ashram vacation. Dive deep within and reconnect to the sacred. Find sacred silence.

    FocusNYC Aliza M. Yoga Aliza is a native New Yorker who spent much of her childhood on the bench keeping score. Until she discovered yoga, she was uncoordinated and always the last one picked. So she studied musical theatre and communications at Emerson College, and went on to work as a professional actor for many years. Fueled by competition but burned out from stress, Aliza sought out and discovered something more grounding in yoga. It was the physical practice of asana that originally enticed her, but it ultimately led to something much more satisfying – for her body, mind and spirit. She wanted to share these benefits with others in an accessible way and became a certified Yoga Instructor. Committed to serving all populations, Aliza’s yoga sessions range from dynamic and energetic to restorative and blissful. Her style is engaging and individualized to needs and preferences in all settings. Aliza has taught privately, in health clubs and spas, in corporate settings and even at the college level. Her areas of expertise include the history, philosophy, anatomy and physiology of yoga, as well as asana, pranayama and meditation, and working with special populations.

  • Alignment Yoga
    Alignment Yoga Advanced Studies/ Teacher Training with Scott Anderson 2010/11 www.AlignmentYoga.com Welcome to Alignment Yoga Thank you for examining Alignment Yoga’s Advanced Studies Program. Whether you desire a deepening understanding of your practice and/or aspire to teach, we have the experience and expertise to facilitate your growth. This program is based on Scott Anderson’s more than 20 years of teaching and 15 years training teachers. Participants will receive extensive instruction in the art & science of Hatha Yoga and the skills needed to safely & competently teach this ancient practice. Many yoga schools teach the outer form of yoga postures (a knee here, an elbow there…), but neglect teaching the art of modifying the techniques to the needs of individuals. We emphasize that form follows function in the practice of Hatha Yoga. Rather than memorizing endless names and details, you will be encouraged to think for yourself as you refine your observational skills. We firmly believe, to paraphrase the old adage, it’s better to teach a man to fish than to simply give him a fish to eat. Trying to be everything to everybody generally dooms an endeavor to mediocrity. Every program director is thus faced with choices – their priority list, so to speak. While our program complies faithfully with Yoga Alliance National Certification Guidelines, we’ve placed particular emphasis in two areas. • Our exploration of the techniques of asana, pranayama, bandha and kriya are comprehensive and backed with a rigorous study of anatomy & physiology. You will understand not only the inner workings of these techniques, but develop an extensive array of techniques to transmit your understanding to your students.
