The Ahimsa Masterclass

Ahimsa (non-harm) encourages us to care for each other as the foundation of our yoga practice.

When we go beyond Asana and prioritize our practice of yoga philosophy, we uncover a whole new realm of spiritual, mental, and physical fulfillment and well-being.

Respecting boundaries is part of yoga values called Ahimsa!

And as a practitioner for over 20 years, it’s one of the most transformative part of yoga practice for me.

Learn more about how setting boundaries with love is part of yoga - and how yoga practice can bring you more peace and happiness.

Does this sound like you?

At the end of your yoga class or home practice you wish you knew how to bring the peace you felt during your practice off the mat and into your life
You find yourself feeling uncomfortable teaching or taking yoga classes because you have a sense that your practice is disconnected from yoga’s roots
You want to be confident that the way you practice and teach yoga is honoring yoga’s roots and contributing to decolonization and equity
