The quality of our life depends largely on the quality of our relationships, and all the relationships we share can be categorised into three fundamental sets – the relationship we have with our own self, the relationship we have with others and the environment, and the relationship we have with the divine or source consciousness.
Yoga recognises this and has tools which can help transform all three. This seminar is for all who are on the spiritual path, or who just want help with relating better!

The Yogin-s understood the human body differently from how we perceive it today. Apart from understanding it as a complex physiological structure, the Yogin-s also realized that we are made up of an intricate subtle body. An important part of this subtle entity is the major energy centers known as Cakra-s, which are linked together through subtle channels called the Näòi-s. Each of these Cakra-s is associated with vital physiological and emotional functions. Hence the Yogin-s firmly believed that any imbalance in the Cakra-s could result in physiological and emotional illness and vice versa.

Throughout the world, numerous practitioners of Yoga are beginning to venture into the non-physical dimensions of Yoga. People now realize that the tools of Yoga are far more profound than superficial gross movements and postures. When Äsana is looked at as merely physical practices and Pranayama as simply breath regulation exercises, Yoga doesn’t seem to offer all the answers to the intelligent modern seeker. Such serious seekers are now turning to the Viniyoga® tradition of Äcärya T Krishnamacharya and TKV Desikachar for deeper insights into Yogic practices.

El potencial humano es ilimitado y está oculto en las profundidades de nuestro ser, no solamente en nuestra psique, sino también en las capas de patrones conscientes e inconscientes. Desbloquear este potencial para que pueda manifestarse en toda su plenitud en nuestras vidas es una clave importante en el camino de crecimiento personal y espiritual. Es un proceso que requiere por un lado un esfuerzo constante y, por otro, la práctica de herramientas poderosas, siempre bajo una supervisión cuidadosa. Los mudra-s y bandha-s son instrumentos vitales en el proceso de evolución personal. Mudra-s son herramientas complejas del Yoga que emplean nuestro fuego interno con el fin de ayudar a nutrir las semillas inherentes de nuestras capacidades.
Estas herramientas fueron ampliamente comentadas en textos clásicos como el Hathayoga Pradipika, Siva Samhita y en textos clásicos más modernos como Yoga Makaranda de T Krishnamacharya. Si las practicamos correctamente, en combinación con técnicas respiratorias y visualizaciones específicas, los mudra-s y los bandha-s pueden tocar diferentes capas del ser humano y ayudarnos en nuestro camino hacia una transformación positiva. Gracias al gran poder que son capaces de despertar, los yogi-s les tenían un profundo respeto y se aprendían y practicaban bajo la supervisión cuidadosa de un maestro competente. También comprendieron los requisitos previos necesarios de estas herramientas y los tenían en cuenta, tanto en la propia práctica, como a la hora de enseñárselas a sus alumnos.
En este seminario estudiaremos detalladamente los Mudra-s más importantes. Estudiaremos los principios necesarios que deben ser entendidos y los contextos concretos en los cuales deben ser practicados. Se explicaran los requisitos previos necesarios antes de abordar la práctica de cada Mudra, los matices técnicos, sus beneficios y sus contraindicaciones.
Se presentará contenido aún desconocido con respecto a estos conceptos tan sutiles del Yoga y a cómo aplicarlos en nuestra práctica personal o en la de nuestros alumnos. Este seminario es recomendable para practicantes serios, profesores y formadores de Yoga que quieran llevar su práctica a un nivel más elevado. Daremos también directrices para poder observar en nosotros mismos los efectos de dichas prácticas y los participantes tendrán oportunidad de profundizar en ellas.

The limitless human potential is often deeply hidden within us, not just beneath our psyche, but also within the layers of conscious and unconscious patterning. Unlocking them to fully manifest into our lives is a key aspect of personal growth and spiritual development. This process requires sustained effort and the practice of powerful tools, under careful guidance and supervision. The role of Mudra-s & Bandha-s can serve as a vital instrument in this process of personal evolution. Mudra-s are very intricate tools of Yoga, that harness the fire within us to help nourish the inherent seeds of our capabilities. They are discussed extensively in classical texts such as Hathayogapradipika & Siva Samhita, as well as modern classics such as Yoga Makaranda of T Krishnamacharya.
When appropriately practiced together with a sophisticated system of breath and visualization, Mudra-s & Bandha-s touch different layers of the human system and aid in our positive transformation. Owing to the great power it can harness, the Yogi-s showed great respect to these tools and only learnt and practiced under watchful guidance. They also understood and considered all the pre-requisites these tools required, before practicing themselves or teaching them to others.
This enriching seminar will explore the most important Mudrä-s in detail, presenting the core principles and frameworks within which they must be understood and practiced. The program will deal with presenting pre-requisites for the practice of each Mudrä, the technical nuances of their practice, benefits, and contraindications.
The seminar will present previously unknown material on these very subtle concepts of Yoga and how to apply them carefully in personal practice or in the practice of students.This seminar will be most useful to serious practitioners of Yoga, as well as Yoga Teachers and Trainers who are wanting to take their practice to the next level. Guidelines of self-observation on the effects of such practices will also be provided and participants will also be offered opportunities to explore these further.

Yoga is an ancient philosophy and practice that originated in India, has been a system of health and well being for thousands of years. Its rich approach combined with its simplicity in implementation has sustained its role in nourishing people for generations. The key advantage of a system like Yoga is that it views the human system as a holistic entity and hence approaches health and well being too. It also empowers people in the healing process.
Some of the most profound tools in Yoga include conscious breathing regulations, life-style changes, visualizations, use of vocal sounds and food specifications among many others. This practical seminar will explore the foundational principles of Yoga Therapy from its classical Yogic roots.
This seminar is open to all and will be particularly suitable for those who wish to dive deep into the authentic form of Yoga Therapy and its practical implementation as a complementary health care paradigm. This seminar will function as a prerequisite to the KHYF Yoga Therapy course being offered in NZ for the first time in 2020, for those who have not completed a teacher training qualification in this lineage.

Asana-s and Pranayama form important tools of Yoga. However rathan being just physical and respiratory practices, Yogis incorporated Mantra-s to make them potent energetic practices: the goal of Yoga being more often to influence Prana or life force. The purpose of this seminar is to explore the utilization of mantra-s in Asana and pranayama and to take it to the next level of practice.
This seminar is open to all and will be particularly suited for those teachers and students who wish to journey to the core of Yoga’s philosophical roots, and practically apply them to daily practice. It will also be invaluable to those who are considering delving further into the authentic teachings of Yogacarya T Krishnamacharya and T K V Desikachar.
