The Warrior Flow

Hatha Yoga with Malcolm McLean, RYT

NDG

When the confidence which is primordially free
Was followed and delighted in,
Countless multitudes of warriors arose.

...They were always without quarrel,
Ever loving and generous...

- from Shambhala: The Sacred Path of the Warrior,
by Chogyam Trungpa



Follow the path of your breath through a series that leads through Warrior 1, 2 and 3.

Enter the flow, and retrace millions of years of evolution as you move: from sitting to all fours, to standing with perfect balance on two feet, to balancing on one foot -- and reaching for the stars.

Build strength, and flexibility, incrementally, every time you practice. Overcome primordial fear. As your practice advances, move into arm balances, and inversions: establish a new relationship to gravity. Then melt down to relaxation, release, and renewed energy.

A carefully-paced practice, accessible to beginners, gentle to the body, and challenging to advanced beginners.

Teacher qualifications

In Montreal, the most widely accepted standard
for accrediting yoga teachers is the
Registered Yoga Teacher (RYT)
standard of the
Yoga Alliance,
a US-based organization.

It represents a great deal of effort among
the main systems of yoga in the United States
to provide a very specific definition of
a yoga teacher
for accreditation purposes.

The same yoga systems are
widely taught in Canada,
and are representative of yoga in the Montreal region.

its specifications for registration,

As for cosmology:
What do I think about yoga and meditation?
Life, the universe, or anything?
So glad you asked!
