Each of us has a sacred rhythm within that comes from our ancestry, birth and dharma. When we live in sync with this rhythm we experience joy, peace and equanimity. When we live unconsciously — from fear or grasping—our sacred rhythm gets altered, leaving us feeling lost, burdened, angry and/or overwhelmed. During this weekend yoga retreat with senior Kripalu Yoga teacher Maya Breuer, we will practice ancient tools from yoga and meditation to dynamically reconnect to our sacred rhythm. As we reconnect to our Self through yoga asanas (poses), pranayama (yogic breathing techniques), mindfulness meditation, dance, and chanting, we will learn to move easily and gracefully through whatever challenges life presents us.
Maya Breuer is a certified senior Kripalu Yoga teacher with more than 20 years experience. Founder and director of the Santosha School of Yoga and the national Yoga Retreat for Women of Color™, Maya has studied extensively with yoga masters of the ancient Kripalu tradition in India. She serves on Kripalu Center for Yoga & Health’s Board of Trustees and is a member of the International Association of Black Yoga Teachers and the National Yoga Alliance and is an affiliate of the International Yoga College. In 2004, Maya became the first recipient of the Yoga Trailblazer Award from the International Association of Black Yoga Teachers. A contributing author to Stephen Cope's Will Yoga and Meditation Really Change My Life? and Richard Faulds’ Kripalu Yoga: A Guide to Yoga on and off the Mat, Maya’s first book, Soul Yoga, will be released in 2008. Maya combines her background as a jazz vocalist and visual artist to create soulful, heartfelt workshops.
