JIVAMUKTI OPEN CLASS (ONLINE & IN PERSON)

Jivamukti Yoga Open Class every TUESDAY, Live from Manchester  7:30- 9PM

If you are in the Manchester area and want to come to the class in person the address is Studio 17, Egerton Rd S, Heaton Moor, Stockport, SK4 4LS. Just show up 10 minutes before the start of class and bring a mat. The gate will be locked at 7:25pm.

Whether you’re a beginner, deciphering the difference between vrikshasana (tree) and shirshasana (headstand) or an advanced yogi who can put both feet behind their head, the Jivamukti Open class welcomes you, as it is open to practitioners of all levels. You work at your own pace, following the Liam's verbal as well as hands-on guidance. Asana options will be provided for beginners, intermediate and advanced students. 

A typical Open class incorporates the five tenets of Jivamukti Yoga: shastra (scripture), bhakti (devotion), ahimsa (kindness), nada (music) and dhyana (meditation) by presenting classical yoga teachings as relevant to one’s life on and off the mat, drawn from the Jivamukti Yoga, Focus of the Month essay, supported by chanting, breath awareness, flowing vinyasa sequences, alignment exploration, hands-on assistance, relaxation and meditation. 

All Open classes include 14 points—asanas, meditation and spiritual teachings—in a sequence creatively designed.

Eclectic music plays an integral role: you might practice to a shifting soundtrack of electro, ragas, global trance, hip-hop, spoken word, George Harrison, Krishna Das, Xavier Rudd, Trevor Hall, Alice Coltrane and Dr Dre. The class is called “Open” because it is open and suitable to all levels of practitioner. Even so, beginning level students should know that there will not be much detailed “how to do” descriptions; for that a student is advised to attend a Basic or Beginner Jivamukti Vinyasa Class. 

Big Love and Blessings
