Through B.K.S. Iyengar’s Yoga of Symmetry and Stillness
As the year draws to a quiet close, these three morning retreats offer time to pause, reflect, and realign.
Guided by the clarity and precision of B.K.S. Iyengar’s approach to yoga, we explore how symmetry in the body creates harmony in the mind.
Through steady practice and reflections from Patañjali’s Yoga Sūtras, each session becomes a step toward renewal — inviting stillness, balance, and a fresh perspective for the year ahead.
Day 1 — December 27: A Fresh Path – Laying the Ground for Renewal
Key Sūtra: Yogaḥ citta-vṛtti-nirodhaḥ (I.2) – Yoga is the stilling of the fluctuations of the mind.
A morning to clear space and begin again.
Through grounded, symmetrical āsana and breath awareness, we quiet the surface of the mind and steady the foundation for inner renewal.
Day 2 – December 28: A Fresh Path – Cultivating Steadiness and Ease
Key Sūtra: Abhyāsa-vairāgyābhyāṁ tan-nirodhaḥ (I.12) – Steady practice and letting go bring stillness.
Balancing strength and softness, we refine alignment and rhythm.
Through mindful use of props and patient observation, we rediscover the freshness that arises when practice meets surrender.
Day 3 – December 29: The Path Ahead — Faith and Clarity for the Journey
Key Sūtra: Śraddhā-vīrya-smṛti-samādhi-prajñā-pūrvaka itareṣām (I.20) – Faith, energy, memory, absorption, and wisdom lead the way.
A morning to open and look forward.
Through expansive āsana and quiet reflection, we awaken śraddhā — the inner faith that lights the way into the new year with calm assurance and renewed purpose.
Who is this for?
Students with 6 months experience.
