Embodied Philosophy

Join Richard Rosen and Jennifer Prugh as we explore through our yoga-asana practice the history and philosophy of yoga by trying the “Forgotten Asanas,” postures that were often practiced for hundreds of years, but are rarely addressed in modern postural yoga. We’ll begin with postures of the Yoga Sutras and make our way through roughly twelve significant texts into the proliferation of asana that took place beginning in the 17th century, and continuing right up to modern postural yoga. This workshop will deepen your own understanding of the “whys” behind what we’re practicing. Bring your mat, a notebook & pen.

This course is a part of the JOY of Yoga 300-Hour Teacher Training Core Curriculum, and also open to the public, with eligibility for 15 CEUs (Continuing Education Units).
