The chakras are energy centres that can be used by the yogi as specific points of focus that hone the concentration of our scattered minds and allow us to move from external to internal and beyond.

​

They exist in the sūkṣma śarīra, the non-physical or subtle body that forms the energetic layer of our existence.

​

The chakras are also (arguably) one of the most exploited and misunderstood parts of yoga.

​

Chakras are abstract concepts and thus can be experienced and described in many ways - we might find them expressed as padmas (lotuses), or wheels, as ādharas (foundations), or yonis (womb/root cause)… there may be 7 of them, or 5, or 10…they have many attributes including colours, sounds, letters, deities, elements and seemingly complex mystical powers.

​

This course teaches the chakras as they were originally intended. It is for the dedicated seekers of yoga - individuals looking for personal and spiritual growth that goes beyond the common narrative.
