Founded by American John Friend, in the '90's, Anusara Yoga is a system of hatha yoga , made up of more than 265 poses, that is heart oriented,spiritually inspiring and firmly grounded in principals of alignment for both the inner and outer body. Anusara translates as flowing with grace, flowing from the heart, to be in the flow.

The highest intention of Anusara Yoga is to align with the divine, and to recognise that we are part of the divine, and to joyfully serve this connection with the divine.

Anusara yoga is a system that unites the universal principals of alignment in the body with a non dual Tantric philosophy that is epitomised by a 'celebration of the heart'.

We work with the idea that each of us is essentially good, so there is a lot of acceptance and allowance for difference and deviation. We look for the good in things, especially in ourselves and in our students. So when we as teachers adjust a student in a yoga pose, it is not to say that you are wrong, but just that we are showing you how to open up and reveal even more of yourself and the beauty that is already in your pose, which is your work of art. Everybody's pose is different, no 2 will look the same.

Your pose is an expression of your true spirit.

There is an emphasis on remembering the spiritual purpose of hatha yoga, which includes reconnecting with our innate goodness, power and beauty and expressing ourselves from that divine place. The poses are expressed from the inside out.

Every Anusara class has a heart oriented theme given to you
by your teacher which will help you to connect with the flow of grace, and understand how to open and reveal more in the physical body and in the spirit, opening up to say yes to life! Each class should leave you feeling good about yourself, and empowered and part of something much bigger!

The classes are all very community oriented, non-competitive and nurturing. The Anusara community is made up of highly trained teachers and fun loving students. Meditation, breath work, chanting, postures, fun and frolicking fill the class time allowing you to reveal your true self and express the power and the joy of your spirit.

Anusara Yoga is now the fastest growing style of yoga in America!
