Private Yoga Coaching - Instructions on the Sutras
English
Online
In person
Every day, millions of students enjoy group asana classes as their first step on the yoga path. However, to truly experience yoga’s potential, purpose and power, we must look to its foundation text, Patanjali’s yoga sutras.
Compiled over 2,300 years ago, the yoga sutras is regarded as the definitive text on yoga. In succinct multi-layered aphorisms, the sutras illuminate the nature of and relationship between consciousness, reality and the mind.
When clearly explained, the yoga sutras is a complete guidebook for living with strategies to reduce suffering, reconnect with our inner GPS, and create rich lives filled with confidence, wisdom and joy.
While most yoga teachers and yoga therapist trainings learn up to 4 hours of the yoga sutras, TKV Desikachar taught that if one wants to know the complete system of yoga and be qualified to teach, one must have deep understanding of and relationship with yoga’s core text. To this end, Robert studied the sutras word-by-word for over 10 years during his time in India and continues to study them on a regular basis, learning more about yoga, life, the mind and the nature of reality with each revisiting.
As a teacher, he unpacks these on an individual level and how they apply to you.
During these private teachings, Robert will cover:
- what is the complete system of yoga (hint: much more than you were taught)
- what are all of yoga’s tools for change (way more than you think)
- which tools work best for my goals, needs and limitations (it all depends on the individual - let’s find out!)
- how can I use yoga to create the life of my dreams? (hint: it’s definitely not ‘do more Asana’).
Here's what a few serious teachers said about studying the yoga sutras:
“If you tell a person who can’t find their own house that there is a pot of gold inside, they would be happier had they not had this information. It is better to give them a map so they may find their way home. THE YOGA SUTRAS IS THAT MAP.” - TKV Desikachar
"Patañjali’s Yoga Sūtra is the heart of yoga: it is the teacher who brings the heart into life.” - Mark Whitwell
“A familiarity with the Yoga Sutras is deeply enriching for any student of life and essential for all authentic teachers of Yoga.” - Robert Birnberg
