Yoga with Ameriga

Prema Vinyasa Yoga is a school of yoga that teaches a path to transformation using ancient and modern tools.

The path involves the following principles, that the teachers embody in their lives and convey in their classes:

• - Prema: Unconditional love. We foster love towards ourselves, every sentient being, and to life itself, by adhering to the guiding principles of: Acceptance, Forgiveness, Letting go.
• - Bhakti: We believe that the divine can be found in every aspect of life, and hence this path cherishes the aspect of Bhakti yoga, union with universal consciousness by love and devotion, as expressed through chanting, pooja, altar care and other spiritual practices. We believe that the more spiritual we become, the more we can perceive that which is spiritual.
• - Svadhyaya: Self study and study of the scriptures. Yoga is an ancient antropotechnique that was developed to answer the problem of the suffering inherent in life (duhkha). In this path we study how the ancient seers solved this problem in different and unique ways. We consider ourselves life-long students, on a learning journey open to embrace the teachings of all yoga schools, of science, and different spiritual traditions. We accept that knowledge is evolving and hence that our beliefs can change and likewise what we teach can change too.
• - 8 limbs: This path encompasses the practice of all the 8 limbs of yoga, placing much emphasis on yamas, niyamas and pranayama.
• - DaDaDa: As teachers of Bhakti Prema Vinyasa, we are guided by the teachings of the Bhradaranyaka Upanishad: Dāmyata Datta Dayadhvam (DaDaDa): “Be Self controlled, Give, Be compassionate”.
