Telluride Yoga Festival

Amidst the stunning backdrop of Telluride, we are called to embody the elements of yoga. For centuries, yogis have understood the microcosm of the body to be inseparable from the elements that give rise to the bones, blood, breath, and nerves. The art of practice involves finding a coordinated balance between each of the five elements-- earth, water, fire, air, and space. In this in-depth study, we explore the anatomical, energetic, and psycho-spiritual qualities of each element. Through postures, breathwork, meditation, and sound, we build stability and ease within the five elements. Tias teaches through imagery, anatomical drawing, poetry, scripture, and metaphor to provide a felt sense of the presence of each embodied element. By harmonizing the five elements, we increase the flow of prana through all the channels of the subtle body. Practice includes meditation, flowing movements (SATYA), dharma study, and both dynamic and therapeutic asana.

Did you know your brain and body thrive when you move in a variety of ways?  “Novelty, creativity, challenge, attention, organization, reset, focus, listen, rewire” are all words that we use in LYT Yoga Method because they represent the action of going in. Through the body, we discover hidden or closed-down pathways that we fire up through specific developmental patterns. By working in through the body, we might witness thoughts or perceptions about ourselves that we can reframe or rewrite. Through the body, we literally and metaphorically sweat NEW cells of transformative juice that refuels us and reminds us that we CAN and we WILL be the authors of our own stories through the power of the body-brain team. With the mindfulness of yoga and the intelligence of physical therapy,  this LYT experience will empower you with education about the body so you can feel at home. Work IN Through the Body.
