​

hatha & mantra Masterclass

In Tantra the body is the medium through which energy & consciousness intersect & express in the material world.  Our whole existence is shaped by these inherent forces.  Tuning into these forces gives us keys to understanding & better manage our body, mind, emotion/spirit matrix. 

​

In this masterclass you will spend time connecting through the energy systems in asana, pranayama, mudras & bandhas. Purification and balance are the aim & foundation for stepping into meditation.  Mantra is one of the most effective, immediate & powerful means to harness & redirect energy lifting you out of sensorial world.  As you strengthen your connection with that which is beyond the pull of the senses you will re-emerge revived, centred and energised.

What CLIENTS Say

I have been a student of yoga & meditation for many, many years and a teacher now for the last 7 years. I've been blessed with the most amazing teachers from various traditions who have each given me special gifts. I was so lucky to begin my 500 hour teaching journey with Pragyadhara this January in a restorative yoga, breathing and yoga nidra course at Kawai Purapura. This and the proceeding study have provided the gateway to the most phenomenal shift in my personal practice and teaching. 

 

Pragyadhara embodies yoga for me. A font of traditional wisdom imparted with deep humility and expertise. 

 

I am grateful for the opportunity I had in working with Pragyadhara. I will be back for more. You should too.
