We speak and you listen. Your voice and experience is an important piece of these discussions. Join the conversation in how engaged community enriches the mindfulness of personal practice. Yoga functions as an exploration of our being and a genuine expression of self. Let's explore the magic of human connection that happens in community and the healing happens in relationship. Jeannie Turner, Yoga Therapist, and Yoga Well's Executive Director, Chase Bossart discuss the importance of personal connection through examples of Yoga Well's weekly classes and Yoga Therapist trainings. Chase closes with a chant from a section of the Taittrīya-upaniṣat that we frequently chant in classes together as it illustrates the sanctity of relationship.

Arguing against IAYT's plan, Chase proposed a series of principles for IAYT to use in future decision-making processes, including: 1. Holding the experiential aspect of Yoga to be equally important to Yoga's informational aspect, and structure requirements accordingly;  2. Honoring Yoga's original Indian anatomies &amp; physiologies as legitimate medical systems separate and apart from the Allopathic models dominant in the West, and not relegating Yoga to be subsumed within those.  Since Viniyoga teachings, as passed down through Mr. Desikachar and T. Krishnamacharya, have so many healing principles important in the therapeutic application of yoga, we consider IAYT an important proponent of Yoga Therapy, and care deeply how they manage their role.
