PRANAYAMA PRINCIPLES & PRACTICE
Did you know that some ancient Yogis considered breathing an even more important part of yoga than movement?
The practice of yogic breathing, known as prā-nā-yā-ma, is a subtler form of yoga than that of the physical postures we know and love. The great teachers of the past tell us that breath work is the gateway that opens the path to the more advanced, inner experiences that yoga can offer. Learn the foundational principles of pranayama, and how to apply them to your regular yoga practice. All levels are welcome!
Various types of sound healing techniques are becoming increasing popular, but you haven’t had a full experience until you’ve tried a Gong Bath!
One of the most exciting events to be held during OM FEST, will be a LIVE Gong Bath – a healing experience to take place with seven Gongs played simultaneously, under the Full Moon. The most sublime instrument of the Yogi is the Gong. Ancient texts describe this instrument as providing the sound of the core of the universe.
The sound of the Gong creates deep relaxation, releasing us from the torrent of thoughts flooding our mind, and stimulates the glandular system to a higher level of functioning. Let go and allow the power of seven Gongs do the work while you relax and receive the benefits!
THE RADIANT BODY – BUILDING CREATIVE CONSCIOUSNESS THROUGH KUNDALINI YOGA

FIND STRENGTH, PEACE AND CLARITY THROUGH ASHTANGA
Improve your circulation, detoxify your body and calm your mind with Ashtanga Yoga!
Ashtanga Yoga is a highly structured vinyasa-style class. It is a system of yoga, introduced to the modern world by Sri K. Pattabhi Jois (1915-2009), which is often promoted as a modern-day form of classical Indian yoga.
Ashtanga yoga involves synchronizing the breath with a progressive series of postures—a process producing intense internal heat and a profuse, purifying sweat that detoxifies muscles and organs. The result is improved circulation, a light and strong body, and a calm mind.
STRENGTHEN YOUR BREATH, MIND AND MOVEMENT WITH VINYASA FLOW!
Looking for vigorous movement meditation that can push you physically and mentally to the next level? Explore Vinyasa Flow!
Vinyasa Flow is a highly popular school of yoga that synchronizes movement with breath. Classes can range from Power Flow to Slow Flow, and there are various styles of this school that match different practice levels and the individual needs of participants.
This yoga practice has become increasingly popular and classes can cater to many different levels to match the goals and wants of all yogis, but Vinyasa Flow is known to be a vigorous physical and mental workout. Modifications will be made and the use of props is always encouraged in Vinyasa Flow!
