WHAT MAKES SVAROOPA® YOGA DISTINCTIVE?
Svaroopa® [“svah-roo-pah” – sometimes referred to as “bliss yoga”] works with yoga poses in a way that is both precise and compassionate. The practice is deceptively easy. You learn different ways of doing familiar poses, which creates a deep opening in the muscles around the spine. Core tensions in the body begin in the muscles around the base of the spine and then affect the rest of the body. Svaroopa® yoga begins by releasing the muscles around the tailbone and then carries the changes through the sacrum, lumbar vertebrae and the rest of the way up the spine through the shoulders and neck. As the spine begins to release tension, the effects radiate throughout the entire body. The result is a reduction in muscular tension. The body feels supple, new and flexible. The relative ease of the poses brings a deep effect, catalyzing powerful experiences of healing and transformation.
The focus is on alignment, using props and holding the pose a little longer to help the student soften into the pose and allowing the pose to have an effect on the student. There is support for the muscle tension allowing for a deeper release.
Yoga Journal magazine has acknowledged Svaroopa® yoga as one the nineteen primary styles of hatha yoga. Yoga Journal described Svaroopa® yoga in the following way:
“This style of yoga teaches different ways of doing familiar poses, emphasizing the opening of the spine by beginning at the tailbone and progressing through each spinal area. Every pose integrates the foundational principles of asana, anatomy and yoga philosophy, and emphasizes the development of transcendent inner experience, which is called ‘svaroopa’ by Patanjali in the ‘Yoga Sutra’. This is a consciousness-oriented yoga that also promotes healing and transformation. . . New students find this a very approachable style.”
Svaroopa® yoga was developed by Rama Berch R.Y.T. who is also the founder of Master Yoga Foundation. She was the founding President of the Yoga Alliance, the national organization that provides support, standards and recognition for yoga professionals.

Description:
The Prosperity and Abundance Circle will meet the 2nd & 4th Wednesdays of the month beginning Wednesday, July 22th from 6:30pm to 7:45pm. The July, August and September Meetings will evolve around the concepts presented in Dr. Wayne Dyer's new book "Excuses Begone"!
This writing examines the common excuses we all use for not achieving our fullest realization of a soul-led Life, offers alternatives for consideration to connect with our Higher Self and presents a paradigm for manifesting abundance and prosperity.
Come join the group as we participate in bringing balance not only into our own lives, but participate in bringing balance back to all. We can and do make a difference one soul at a time!
