Space, Sky, Rivers, & Ground: Embodying the Elements in Yoga
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.

Energetic Alignment
Alignment is an expression of the greatest vitality and the most amount of ease in our being. We'll explore an approach to alignment that goes beyond muscle and bone and connects us with the movement of energy in the subtle body.

Through this immersion, we’ll explore what it is to reconnect and re-center our energy, using the five directions of prana or the Prana Vayus.

Whether on our mat or in the world, we'll explore an approach to alignment that goes beyond muscle and bone and connects us with the movement of energy in the subtle body.

Work IN Through the Body
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.

Yoga and the Embodiment of Space
The arch-yogi Siva dwells at the mountain summit, steadfast through all space and time. Here in Telluride at an altitude of 9,500 ft, we embody space in our yoga. In practice, we stretch, lift, and turn to find space around the diaphragm, fascia, nerve endings, and spine. We look to cultivate space not only inside the body but space in our lives and in everything we do. How do we develop an aesthetic appreciation for space and learn to not fill it up with our wants and needs? How can we sense that space itself offers a feeling of the sublime? In this class, we generate feelings of spacious delight in both heart and mind through freedom of movement and a free-flowing breath.

The Spine and the Middle Way
As the world becomes more and more divided, we are called to realize the path of The Middle Way. The Middle Way as taught by the Buddha is a place free from extremes, extremes that polarize, isolate, and cause imbalance.

In practice, we embody these teachings within the central axis of the body. One of the names for the mid-line of the body is the Madhya Nadi or Middle Channel. By moving prana through the “core” structures deep within the spine, we awaken to the Middle Path. Through yoga postures, pranayama, sounding, and visualization we tap into the Middle Channel of the spine. Then, amid a rapidly changing world, we come to realize how the Middle Way is a path to both equanimity and peace.

Sunday Yoga to Serve Your Soul
Yoga church is in session! This is your Sunday mindfulness, movement, and message that will free your mind and serve your soul. Join Donny for his annual Sunday Service-inspired yoga flow that is the PERFECT way to start your final day at the festival.
 
We will begin class with a grounding meditation and continue into a Vinyasa Flow with the intention of "Service" and taking your yoga off of the mat and sharing it with the world. It's the yoga on the mat and off that serves our soul and sets us free. With each movement we will cultivate a sense of selflessness and compassion, knowing that the practice of yoga extends far beyond the boundaries of our mats.

This balanced, grounded, and heart-opening practice will remind you why we practice yoga, leaving you feeling inspired to step up, show up, and be of service to a world that needs your light. Together, let us embrace the true essence of yoga – union, connection, and service to all beings.

The Tao of Yoga
In the high country of Colorado, the vitality of nature is everywhere evident. In the Far East, the force behind all nature is known as the Tao. The Tao is said to be always changing and like moving water, flows naturally and  spontaneously. In this class we yoke to the vital Tao by honing the prana or chi. Like water flowing through the ravines, creeks and valleys of Telluride, we enhance the pathway of blood, lymph and nerve through stretching and flowing movements. Using arcs, curves, spirals and elliptical movements, we express the force, dynamism, and intelligence of water. In this class, Tias weaves in verses from the Tao te Ching in order to embody the poetry, wisdom,  and spiritual guidance that the Taoist teachings provide.

Tea and Tarot
The Tea Ceremony is a perfect elemental art. Silently, we drink tea from ancient trees grown in reverence. In this special space, we give the water, fire, and tea leaves a chance to communicate with us in their subtle and silent tongue. Old-growth trees have been taking in sunlight, rainwater, and starlight for hundreds of years. Drinking tea from their leaves in a ceremonial space allows us access to parts of our hearts that we usually cannot reach.

This practice pairs perfectly with tarot. After the tea ceremony (three bowls of tea in silence), we draw cards for the entire group and then for the individuals present who want personal readings.

Tarot card reading is like looking at oneself through the clarifying reflection of an intuitive friend. In these sessions, you are invited to participate as Jade interprets the tarot cards you draw from their deck. Tarot is not about reading the future or divining destiny. The cards are a set of elemental archetypes so ancient and true that we find ourselves magnetized to those that speak to our present situation.

You will leave this session feeling honored and held in reverence. A practice of tea ceremony and tarot can allow you to feel reconnected to your intuition. The elemental realm is already working on your behalf to create what your higher self desires. When we listen to the heart’s wisdom, we open to following the watercourse way toward what is in our highest potential.

Fountain of Youth: Join Kali for a Longevity Practice for the Radiant, Ephemeral Body
Long-held floor poses encourage and enhance the Qi or energy distribution through the bones and connective tissues that bind them. These mainly static postures coax Qi into the respective Meridians (the unseen riverbeds of energy the Qi travels through).  This style of yin yoga nourishes the natural range of motion of the joints, increases the resilience and elasticity of our fascia, and slows the impact of aging.
