Understanding Yoga And Its Value Beyond Physical Fitness (10:30 a.m.-12:30 p.m.)


Nowadays, yoga classes can be found at fitness centers around the world. It seems like everyone is doing it - yet often without understanding what yoga is really all about. We have steered away from yoga's original purpose as a holistic way of life and are mainly using it as a quasi-meditational form of physical exercise. Unfortunately, this is selling yoga short. 

Hatha, Ashtanga, Bikram, Downward Dog, Sun Salutation...What does it all mean? Come to our yoga workshop with the seasoned yogi Peter Petrou, to learn about the amazing philosophy behind this ancient practice. We will make sense of all the yoga terms you've come across, explain what yoga can do and help you choose which form of yoga is best suited for you.

Before we begin the discussion, we will have the opportunity to practice some yoga poses. So come in a comfortable outfit and bring a towel to sit on!

Guest Speaker: Peter Petrou, owner of Vedanta Centre – Yoga & Personal Development
