YOGA!
Shambhava Yoga is inspired from the heart and empowered through an established lineage. The rich and diverse practices (including asana, pranayama, meditation, mantra and seva or selfless service) teach us to
how to connect within to our natural
state of clarity and joy and to bring this awareness into all the activities of our life. Shambhava Yoga classes blend a flow of postures with conscious work in stillness. We emphasize safe biomechanics, core strength, integrity of alignment, and inner opening through the breath. Our teachers offer modifications to
include students of all experience
levels. A Shambhava Yoga class is a meditative experience

The Shambhava Yoga Teacher Training gives you the tools to transform your practice and share your love of yoga with others. We are dedicated to helping you: • Understand and practice safe biomechanics in yoga asana • Develop essential teaching skills • Work with the breath to teach with intuition and inner depth • Cultivate your own creative teaching style Small classes offer personal support and help you flourish within a yoga community.

Shambhava Yoga draws from the rich tapestry of yogic teachings to explain how to use the circumstances of our own lives to
grow consciously. The term Shambhava refers to the natural state of being that exists within and that can be experienced through the practices of yoga. Shambhava Yoga encompasses the following elements: * Breath-focused hatha yoga to help us relax, open and align with more subtle flow of energy * Meditation practices to bring clarity, focus and the release of psychic tension * Sanskrit chanting and kirtan to cultivate joy, harmony and inter-connection with others * Cultivation of conscious awareness, openness to growth and dedication to selfless service Develop inner awareness and balance as a yoga teacher
We give students tools to integrate asana practice with a regular meditation practice. Shambhava hatha yoga encourages the development of inner awareness and a connection with the flow of subtle energy within to create inner balance. Deepen your personal yoga practice during
our training program! The first and best reason to do the training is for yourself!

ABOUT OUR TEACHER: HH Sri Shambhavananda is an American-born meditation master who has devoted his life to serving those seeking true spiritual growth through the ancient disciplines of yoga. He is a blazing flame of inspiration, and a constant source of spiritual energy for his students. He challenges the idea that spirituality is somehow removed from the world we live in, teaching that all the myriad conditions of our lives can be transformed into great joy through spiritual work. Shambhavananda has founded ashrams across the world, his largest being Shoshoni Yoga Retreat,
an ashram and retreat center located on 250 acres of spectacular pine forest in the Colorado Rockies near Boulder, Colorado.
Shoshoni serves as a dynamic hub for the loving sangha (spiritual community) that Shambhavananda has nurtured. Shambhavananda and the Shambhava School of Yoga have also been serving the local Boulder community for thirty years
by offering spiritual teachings, places of sanctuary and training programs in hatha yoga and meditation at Eldorado Mountain
Yoga Ashram. He has published two books, Spontaneous Recognition and A Seat By the Fire. Both are compilations
of satsangs, traditional question and answer sessions, which is his favorite
teaching method.
