Bridge 1: Threads of Truth: a Dharma Study with Keith Porteous Meade
Fri, Oct 3, 2025 - Dec 12, 2025
1:30 PM - 3:00 PM
The Bridge Course is a 4-module program for teachers and keen students to deepen their practices on all levels.
Bridge 1: Threads of Truth, focuses on the dharma, or written teachings that provide insight into the human condition and guidance on the path. This in-person and virtual study offers the opportunity to take a deep dive into the dharma through study of a contemporary, relatable text alongside selections from Master Patanjali’s Yoga Sutras. We will learn from our texts, from each other, and from the teachings that are available everyday. For those who complete the curriculum, this course provides 40 Continuing Education hours with Yoga Alliance.
What to expect: Weekly reading, writing assignments, quizzes, and peer support via the Teachable platform, plus in-person guidance, discussion, Q&A, and some singing of the Yoga Sutras on Fridays.
In-person/Virtual classes will take place on Fridays from 1:30-3pm, 10/3 - 12/12/25. *No classes on 10/10 & 12/5/25
This course will use a Teachable platform. Materials will be available by October 1st.
* If you are enrolled and unable to attend a Friday session, a high-quality video recording will be provided via the Teachable platform.

Background: Keith earned a 2-year from the Contemplative Studies Institute program with Dr. Miles Neale, author of our principle text, between 2019-2021. Sharing this material having learned it first-hand from the author (and through the pandemic) is an honor and a gift.
