Join me online for an accessible guide to the Hatha Pradipika.
The practice of yoga is often regarded as sequenced postures. But where did they come from and what were they for? The earliest texts that describe hatha yoga have subtler priorities – making shapes with the body is primarily a warm-up.
As the course website puts it:
“There's no indication that postures were connected into sequences until a lot more recently. Instead, the aim of the Hatha Pradipika – and the texts that inspired it, which we'll also consult – is to channel vital energy to steady the mind…”
Over four weekly modules, we’ll read the text together and explore its ideas, as well as how it relates to contemporary methods.
The format is clear and engaging, combining conversations and pre-recorded videos – see below for a taste. There are 16 hours of teaching in total, including recordings of live Q&As. There’s also a forum for asking questions at any time.
