Esoteric Integral Yoga COURSE

 

An Intensive Study of Yogic Science & Spirituality for the Realisation of the Human Potential

Yoga is much more than a physical practice

…and its ability to create emotional, psychological, mental and other effects is much more scientific & reliable than most people realise.

Often, people have a superficial approach to YOGA as simple body gymnastics. In the West, yoga has become a product of mass marketing.

It is marketed as weight-loss, body toning, and a set of dynamic stretching movements, in order to feel good and find temporary peace and harmony.

Unfortunately, most modern-day yoga trends have lost the true essence that create genuine life-changing effects. This yoga course is not yoga as many see it – it’s not an exercise routine needing fashionable clothes and yoga mats.

Realisation of the Human Potential

Like yoga schools in ancient times, we are a school that focuses on spiritual practice, both on the yoga mat and in daily life, inspiring and supporting the students to find out for themselves what it’s all about and verify all that is presented in the course and traditional scriptures through direct experience.

Tools that allow us to achieve superior goals and transformation

Our students gradually develop a holistic set of tools for understanding themselves and the surrounding world in order to deeply transform, with the help of systems such as the chakras, the 10 Mahavidyas, astrology and more. We take yoga as it is – a very precise transformational tool.

Course designed for long-term spiritual development

It requires your participation

Our course encourages you to experience for yourself. You don’t come here to just “follow along” with the teacher. Each student experiences practice according to their unique perspective, and being in tune with that unique inner reality is very important. You learn how each technique works and you can practice at home to see results for yourself. We encourage observation, sharing and feedback of results to increase efficiency of practice and for inspiration.

Continuous, progressive

The courses are structured with continuous and progressive learning in which each class builds upon the last, following a structured and systematic path.

Scientific and spiritual

We teach techniques that enable you to verify what is being taught in ancient scriptures and science alike. You do not need to “believe” in anything – not in Chakras, Nadis, Prana, energy flow or anything else presented. The course is designed to allow you to experience the phenomena & effects described (the methodology of a scientific experiment). Included in the course are research & studies from the fields of biology, anatomy, psychology, physics (mechanics, electro-magnetics, wave theory), neuroscience and even quantum physics.

Emphasis on effects beyond the physical

Some students describe the yoga practice in this course as “a more meditative approach to yoga”, “easier to silence the mind and focus on inner experience” and that it’s like “using the body to connect to the mind & emotions”. We practice an awareness phase after each asana and technique and the complete yogic relaxation to deepen our awareness of the subtler realities.

Structure of the class:

In the first year, classes are around 2.5 hours consisting of 2 components – theory and practice.

1. Theory

Theory (approx. 50 minutes) is presented on various subjects – in the first year we will learn the law of resonance, the effects of each postures, fundamental laws of the universe.

2. Practice

Practice (approx. 100 minutes) consists of 3 phases: 1) Initial awareness & warming-up exercises, 2) the main yoga techniques and 3) the complete yogic relaxation.

Why Practice Yoga?

Effects of the techniques presented in the yoga course include:

  • A gradual awakening of intuition,
  • Understanding of body language,
