Summertime is a wonderful time for adventurous and playful practice. And this summer you are invited to join us for a weekend retreat of playful practice at the lovely Heathen Hill. We will venture into new territory by bringing curiosity, a sense of adventure, and a fresh approach to our practice of yoga.

This workshop is for intermediate or higher level students who are interested in practicing deeply, wholeheartedly, with the intention of uncovering the learner (and teacher) within themselves.

We will have plenty of time to explore the integration of asana, pranayama and yoga philosophy in our practices.

Title: Bodhisattva Yogic Bliss: Vinyasa, Meditation and More
Location: Heathen Hill

Description: 

In the Bodhisattva tradition, being of greater benefit to those around you, often begins with benefiting yourself. Vivekan & Jess invite you to enjoy a complete weekend of self-nurture. When not deepening your practice with revitalizing yoga flows attentive to form and breath, and restful meditation imbued with Buddhist thought, bask in blissfully delicious meals, the country summer setting and the opportunity to let go and lay back.

He has especially been inspired by teachers from Tibet, China, India & the West. Synthesizing these influences, Vivekan has created his own unique brand of yoga instruction. Think well-sequenced, energetic Vinyasa flows imbued with an awareness to form, breath, Buddhist thought and acceptance. His meditation instruction, and broad yogic knowledge in general, enriches his students’ experience with his ability to tie yogic philosophy with ordinary, everyday experiences.

Jess received her teacher certification under Vivekan and continues to apprentice under his guidance. She draws inspiration from her practice, her teachers and the Dharma. Among students and private clients she is known for her warmth, encouragement and her ability to share her personal tips, tricks and hacks to make life off and on the mat a little more laid back and rock star.

Vivekan and Jess infuse their Bodhisattva Yoga blend with their studies of Buddhist thought, and expertise in yoga, ecology and green living. Vivekan has been featured on such popular media outlets as MTV Brazil and Channel 9 News, and inside the pages of Time Out NY.
