About the Instructor:
Dhyananda (Jeff) has been living in India for over 4 years. He recently arrived back in USA to assist his instructor Yogacharya Ganga Puri on his world yoga tour. And is now sharing the ancient traditional teachings of Yoga and Tantra practices at the Brooklyn Zong.
He is certified in Hatha Yoga, Kriyas, Pranayama (breathing exercises) & guided meditations (concentration techniques)
He received a Diploma in Yoga Education from Yoga Vidya Gurukul University, Nasik, India. He is also a student of Shri Santosh Puri Ashram/ Yoganga Retreat in Haridwar, India since 2008 leading an austere life, studying Yoga, Philosophy & Yoga Management
Dhyananda says "Tantra, from two sanskrit words, tanoti & trayati = expand consciousness & liberate the energy = TANTRA
Hatha; HA = Sun, masculine; THA = Moon, feminine; when these two
polarities meet in ajna chakra = HATHA YOGA
Hatha Yoga is Tantra, for they work on the two energies systems in the subtle body and unite them in shusumna, awakening kundalini, the dormant latent energy in the all humans (species). Then Raja Yoga takes over, the study & practice of the royal path, consisting of
Patanjali Yoga Sutras.
All forms of 'Yog asanas' are based in Hatha Yoga, some are dynamic,
some are more passive. This ancient practice is designed to enhance
life on earth and brings creative harmony to the one who practices it
all who come into contact with them, plants, animals, humans and all
the five elements.
Through practicing these techniques of kriyas, asanas, asana, dharna,
one can prepare oneself for the ultimate experience on earth,
meditation, samadhi, the realization of oneself.
These guaranteed techniques cleanse the inner & outer body, mind and subtle body to allow the cosmic consciousness to flow freely through this temporary vessel."
Dhyananda's yoga class is conducted in the traditional Indian style with a mix of newage flow. The flow is
thoughtful, meditative and magical. The emphasis is made on the deep reprogramming and understanding of the spiritual aspect of the asanas.Wear loose fitting clothing. Yoga mats are available.
