Asana and Beyond with Marcela Clavijo March 20, 2010

Renowned for enhancing flexibility, alignment, precision, and strength, the teachings of Iyengar Yoga open the gateway to the heart.

Come explore yogic philosophy through practical means such as dynamism and tranquility of asana, the deep quiet of pranayama, and the spacious clarity of meditative practice.

This workshop is an opportunity to uncover inner dimensions of being human, which move us closer to our authentic nature of openness and love.

All Levels from all traditions welcome.

About Marcela:
A core faculty member of the Iyengar Yoga Institute, Marcela came to yoga in the 70's and began teaching in the 80's. She has studied with the Iyengar Family in Pune, India. More recently, she trained on the Great Yoga Wall with Brian Legere, certified Iyengar Instructor and co-founder of the Great Yoga Wall.

Marcela became an ordained Tibetan Buddhist nun in the Sakya Tradition in 2003, and has done extended retreats in Nepal, and at Gampo Abbey in Nova Scotia. She feels deep gratitude toward all her yoga teachers, including Mary Dunn and Manuoso Manos, as well as all her spiritual mentors, including the Dalai Lama, the Sakya Trizin, and Pema Chodron. The challenge of keeping a spiritual-based discipline relevant inspires her teaching, and she is grateful for this chance to share what she has been learning.
