Knowledge of Sanskrit makes it possible to grasp the subtleties of yoga, whose body of teachings are written in Sanskrit. Since ancient times the practice of yoga has included the study of Sanskrit and the chanting of Sanskrit mantras to induce calm and clarity in meditation. Sanskrit is integral to yoga meditation and its pure sounds essential for harmonizing and balancing the mind.

This Sanskrit Training will teach you how to approach the language of yoga as a yoga that is both enjoyable and inspiring. The first step in learning Sanskrit is to develop an intimacy with its sounds; become familiar with their exact location, feeling their force and power, and the unique way they vibrate the palate and engage the breath. Above all, enjoying sound is at the heart of our program.

This training is an educational adventure that will give you a permanent connection to the beauty and energy of Sanskrit as well as a dynamic model of yoga in the classroom that supports a natural and effortless focus.

The ASI learning model and design of this program depend on a unified, collective group experience. This workshop will be delivered online, and participants should be comfortable with this approach. As always, students must be present for the entire class. This means being with the group for up to eight hours each day, taking several breaks throughout. It also means being able to be in a quiet place where one can focus on the lesson without interruption, and speak and chant aloud with the group.

Participation is limited to 12 people. Please join this adventure if you are comfortable with the online format, have a living situation that will support your participation, and are excited to go deep with your studies.
