Art of Yoga: A Yogini Poet

3

πŸ™‚ accessible, balanced, engaging // 50 min. // Nicky

Class begins today with a short discussion of a 6th century Shaivaite Saint: Karaikkal Aimayar. Born in Tamil Nadu in Southern India, she left behind a householder’s life, took on the form of a ghoul, lived in the cremation grounds as a renunciate yogini and started writing poetry for her beloved Shiva.

The yoga class that follows is balanced and accessible. Feel free to skip to xxx if you want to skip the art history lesson and get right into asana practice!
