About the class

The Yoga Sūtra is often said to teach the theory behind modern practice. But what does it actually say, apart from listing eight things that include the word āsana?

Join Daniel Simpson for an in-depth exploration of this influential text. Over four weekly sessions, we'll study key sūtras that explain its objectives, and consider how they might be applied in the twenty-first century.

The format of the course is accessible and fun, with the aim of inspiring discussions on yoga philosophy and what makes it relevant to modern practitioners. There'll be plenty of time to ask questions and share ideas.

Daniel is the author of The Truth of Yoga, an engaging guide to traditional texts and the history of practices. He also teaches courses at the Oxford Centre for Hindu Studies and on teacher trainings. Find out more at: http://truthofyoga.com

Bring your yoga mat, a blanket, your water bottle and wear warm layers as the windows will be open.

** PRACTICAL BITS **

Due to the nature of the Crescent Bakery building, it's ideal to wear layers of clothing for cooler / warmer fluctuations.
