Synergy Power Yoga
The use of the word "power" in relationship to yoga was first used by Beryl Bender Birch — an amazing woman, teacher, author and pioneer of yoga practice in America. She wanted to let the Western world know about a rigorous and challenging style of yoga called Astanga (a Sanskrit word meaning “8 limb” referring to the classical 8 limb yogic path as described in the Yoga Sutras of Patanjali). At Synergy we offer the Baptiste Power Vinyasa method as designed by master teacher and author Baron Baptiste (www.baronbaptiste.com). Baron has combined the disciplines of Astanga, Bikram and Iyengar yoga; and has created a flowing, challenging, and moving meditation accessible to just about everybody. We practice in a heated room (around 90 degrees) to help open the body and deepen the experience of release. It is a practice designed to invite and take you to your physical and mental edge. The relationship between effort and ease, doing and non-doing, and strength and flexibility all relate to bringing, not only the body, but your whole being in to a state of equanimity.
