A new heart-oriented style developed by John Friend, Anusara yoga is described as spiritually inspiring, yet grounded in a deep knowledge of outer and inner body alignment. Anusara means, "to step into the current of Divine Will", "following your heart", "flowing with Grace", "to move with the current of divine will."
Founded in 1997, Anusara yoga integrates the celebration of the heart, universal principles of alignment, and balanced energetic action in the performance of asana. In this school of yoga, each student’s abilities and limitations are deeply respected and honored. Inner body awareness and heart awareness is emphasized. Anusara yoga focuses about the person not the posture. |
