ONGOING COURSE DESCRIPTIONS

Kundalini Yoga: The class is different each week, allowing you to sample many different sets and meditations.  We either warmup with easy physical stretches, or practice breathwork (pranayama) first.  Next comes a kriya which is a series of physical exercises and postures designed to achieve a specific effect (e.g., spinal series, series for disease resistance).  We rest between the kriya and meditation with a Gong relaxation, to prepare the body for deep meditation, which comes last.

Gong Events: (see CITYOGA’s Worshops and Events page for the next date). The ancient Gong has been used in a variety of healing modalities and has been shown to accelerate the healing of physical injuries.  A horse trainer has used it to heal the horses with leg sprains.  My very old black cat with arthritis used to come running whenever I played it and would sit right in front of it, so he knew its power too!  It also is just plain fun to listen; some people describe a feeling of being out of body or levitating while laying down for an extended Gong Meditation.

These events normally have 3 gongs (except New Year’s Eve when there are more!). The evenings open with very gentle Kundalini Yoga and breathing exercises, then you lie down for 25-45 minutes and finish with an accessible meditation.

“The Gong is a healing tool for the nervous system and a cauldron in which you can create alchemical blends of qualities that open and develop the Inner Self.”
“The sound of the Gong creates deep relaxation, releases you from the torrent of thoughts and stimulates the glandular system to a higher level of functioning.”
“The Gong is a sacred threshold. It is a portal that links the finite and infinite experience of the self.”
