What is Rahini Yoga?

Rahini Yoga, "The Yoga of Spiritual Alignment," is a gentle fusion of Hatha yoga poses with a Buddhist approach to meditation and spiritual harmony.

Rahini Yoga consists of yoga pose sequences (Vinyasas called "Rahini Yoga Flows") that emphasize:

Awakening the body's natural way of moving through subtle alignments; self-observation and inquiry; and breath, body, and mind awareness.
Encouraging and guiding the proper flow of energy (prana).
Experiencing the healing aspects of yoga.
Tapping into the higher spiritual dimensions of a yoga practice.

A Buddhist approach to meditation is practiced to awaken the clear natural state of mind that dwells within our Spiritual Heart. As our Spiritual Heart awakens, so does our capacity to experience peacefulness, joy and spiritual balance.

"I just wanted to thank you for a wonderful and amazing yoga teacher training experience. I really felt comfortable with all the instructors. I wanted to tell you that I have taken previous workshops... and I have not come across instructors that make themselves approachable and as accessible as you all have. It was a pleasure to feel comfortable to ask questions and not feel that they were unimportant. Thank you for a really great experience! I am looking forward to continuing my studies with you to the 500-hour Rahini Yoga Certification."

Dean, Marvin, and all the other teachers are caring, warm instructors who, by virtue of their own divinity, took my spiritual practice to a deeper level. Thank you Dean! Namaste"
