Yoga of Joy |
||
|
With Carry Kim
Rediscover the childlike joy and spontaneity that resides within in this introduction to the Yoga of Joy, a tantric practice that combines ancient, esoteric disciplines from Vajrayana Yoga and Primordial Yoga (Yoga of Joy) into a nine-step practice. A unique, dynamic and powerfully effective yoga system "discovered" by dakini Yuan Miao during her spiritual awakening, Yoga of Joy gradually (and spontaneously) leads one to the formless state of universal energy. Integrating the physical with the spiritual, the circulation of the blood with subtle energy and the principles of balance between Yin and Yang, Yoga of Joy utilizes a concise and effective combination of postures, breathwork, visualizations, intention, mantra and mudra ("seals"). Ultimately, Yoga of Joy encourages us to release all concepts and rules, return to our inner nature and expand into a joyful, creative, potentiated being with a greater capacity to benefit others. Carry's workshop will include various warm-ups, Vajra Wind organ cleansing breath techniques and the first four steps of the practice. Suitable for students of all levels. About Carry Kim CARRY KIM (Jin Lian-Hua, "Golden Lotus") became a lineage holder of Yoga of Joy (Tibetan and primordial yoga) following a solo journey through Tibet, India and Nepal in 2001. Her foundation lies in Tibetan Vajrayana and esoteric teachings from her root teacher, Yuan Miao, yogi Lama Norbu and the yoga lineage of Krishnamacharya. Carry¹s teaching has been influenced by elements of Taoism, Zen Buddhism and her training as a Shiatsu therapist and martial artist (Northern Shaolin Kung Fu and Tai Chi). Her goal is to help free our childlike spontaneity and unique, ecstatic flow of energy. When we are free and living joyfully, we can be of ultimate service to all beings.
