Classes Designed To Transform The Mind, Strengthen The Body, And Grow The Spirit
Bharatanatyam & Theatre – Tuesdays at 6 pm
Bharatanatyam, a dance form from southern India, is a highly dramatic art that uses postures, hand gestures, facial expression, intricate movements and rhythmic footwork to convey emotions and stories from life, mythology and poetry. In these lessons, learners will be systematically introduced to the dance movements along with theater games and exercises. This integrated approach helps learners become comfortable in using their entire body as a vehicle of dramatic expression. While learning a movement vocabulary that harks back a few centuries and is rooted in a culture very different from the one in which they are living, they are yet able to connect to it as a living art through which they can express their contemporary sensibilities.
For age groups: 8 to 14 years, 15-18 years, 19 and older
Yoga for Wellbeing – Tuesdays at 7 pm
Yoga for Wellbeing follows a gentle, non-competitive methodology that teaches each willing aspirant how to be at peace with one’s own self and in harmony with one’s environment. In today’s stressful times, this approach provides a respite from the daily pressures of life, such as city commuting and driving, overwork, a pervasive culture of competitiveness and high expectations, or the demands of caregiving, to name a few examples.
In this class, although you are working alongside a group of students, you need never be in a position of comparison with others. There is no requirement to push towards any particular goal — the longest, the highest, the bendiest! Although we learn in a group, we each follow our own pace. Moreover, while we proceed without having to compete with others, we also strive to make friends with ourselves, accepting and respecting our own pace and our own abilities.
The lessons include four fundamental elements of Yoga: postures and movements (asana), breathing techniques (pranayama), exercises in concentration and mindfulness, and deep relaxation practices.
The approach to the exercises in these four categories is for each student to find their comfort level. These exercises are not those that the Himalayan yogis astound us with. They have been modified to be safe for ordinary healthy householders. These modifications, combined with the concept of Yoga as a path where each of us proceeds in our own time, make a Yoga for Wellbeing class a place for striving but not strife, for sharing but not comparing, for exercising but not for becoming exhausted.
Some theory as well as discussions related to the application of Yoga to daily life will also be a part of the class from time to time.
Yoga is an integrated approach to wellness of mind, body and spirit, and not solely a path towards physical wellbeing, flexibility or acrobatic abilities. Like water that takes the shape of whatever vessel it finds itself in, we will attempt, in this class, to find our own level of serenity.
I invite you to join me on this journey. ~ Anjana Rajan
