the Teachings of Patanjali
with Ted Surman

The goal of Yoga is a stable mind in a healthy body.
Ted Surman presents half and one day workshops on the
Yoga Teachings of Patanjali, using the methods of Kriya Yoga and
Ashtanga Yoga, to attain peacefulness to the body, breath and mind.

During each three hour Workshop Ted weaves asana, pranayama,
chanting, study of the Yoga Sutras of Patanjali and meditation, giving you
an experiential understanding of these profound Teachings.

Asana
for body flexibility and strength

Pranayama
for breath and lifeforce awareness

Meditation
to reduce distraction and increase clarity

What level ?
The half day Workshops are suitable for all levels.
We apply the appropriate application of Yoga for each student, within the context of the Workshop. A regular practice of asana, pranayama and meditation gives you a better understanding of your weakness and strength. Practicing to your comfortable maximum ability is the special effort required for balanced transformation.

What style of Yoga ?
The Teaching of Patanjali is Raja Yoga, which is the ability to focus and strengthen our mind. Patanjali gives us Kriya Yoga (attitude) and Ashtanga Yoga (method) to attain this state of peacefulness to the body, breath and mind.
