Fully instructional: Practical application

An offering of three courses

Practical application
The Taranyali Tridha Dhyanam – the Threefold Meditations of the Thunder Dragon, is an ancient and complete meditation system from the tradition of Tantric Hatha Yoga which has been revived and revised by the yogin Sundernath (Shandor Remete) for use by present-day practitioners.

The first stage, Taranyali Krantam, the Emergence of the Thunder Dragon, is a full-practice format involving standing, seated, and meditative activities. You will be able to follow, at your own pace, the individual karanas and asanas which are fully instructed, and review them until they become a flowing meditation.

At the end of the course, you will be able to practise together with Sundernath and Emma in a flowing sequence without interruption.

Suitable for all yoga practitioners including beginners.
Welcome to the teachings of Nrtta Sadhana, the Pure Dance of Shiva. It is here that the aspirant rediscovers the rhythmic life currents hidden within the body by means of unimposed natural positioning.

In this short course, Emma Balnaves will present the Ananda Tandava – Dance of Bliss or Dissolvement – as the whole purpose of yoga is to dissolve oneself into the self. The path of Yoga has nothing to do with the outward flowing of life into matter but is inwards, away from matter and its ongoing transmutation; and leads, finally, to its death.

This course is fully instructional and commences with an introductory lecture. At the conclusion you will be able to practice together with Emma in a flowing sequence without interruption.

Suitable for all yoga practitioners including beginners.
Pranayama Deha Shuddhi refers to the method of cleansing or purifying (shuddhi) the body (deha). Indirectly, Deha Shuddhi also refers to the purification of the mind, as the mind lives within the body and is an extension of it. The Deha Shuddhi practice is offered for the establishment of the necessary and correct body-mindset required for the journey ahead—the path of Laya Krama (the process of reabsorption) that lies beyond Deha Shuddhi.

Open Level – suitable for all levels of yoga practitioner.
