Shadow Yoga & Ayurveda Immersion

with Scott Blossom


Sept 11 - Nov 22, 2012


At Yoga Tree Studios in San Francisco, CA

This three-month immersion is for Shadow Yoga students who wish to apply Ayurvedic medicinal principles and practices

for supporting their hatha yoga practice. Each month of the immersion will include a three week Shadow Yoga intensive and a

weekend of Ayurvedic study. Over the arc of the Fall season the teachings and practices will build cumulatively to form a

strong foundation for integrating these two profound systems of health and self-knowledge.

The Shadow Yoga courses in Septmeber and October will focus on the Prelude Forms and asana vinyasas that prepare students for the

preliminary forms of Saravangasana (Shoulderstand Pose). November's course will be dedicated to developing an individualized practice

that includes variations of Sarvagansana appropriate to the skill level of each student.

The Ayurvedic curriculum will cover topics related to cultivating samagni (balanced internal fire), the circulation of prana,

the role of one's prakriti (individual constitution) in yoga practice, and determining an optimal diet and lifestyle regimen for

supporting a committed yoga practice. There will be a three week purification and rejuvenation process as part of the

practical studies of Ayurveda in October.

*Prerequisites - Participants are required to have completed a Shadow Yoga Basics course.

The next Shadow Yoga Basics course takes place on Aug 21 - 30 w/ Scott in SF.
