  Anusara Yoga (a-nu-sar-a) - Emphasising the "Universal Principles of Alignment"

View Cart
 
 

Anusara Yoga is a modern school of yoga grounded in a Tantric philosophy of goodness and cohesively joined with the Universal Principles of Alignment. This powerful hatha yoga system of practice was founded by John Friend in 1997 and has rapidly become one of the most popular sought yoga styles in the world.

How can Anusara help me?
Anusara means "flowing with grace", "following your heart", or "going with the flow" all of which draw forth a positive energy experience to those that practice. Anusara yoga not only brings mind, heart and spirit into alignment but furthermore strengthens the muscles, increases circulation, quells agitation, and overall improves concentration.

Who can take Anusara Yoga?
Anusara is for all indiviaduals with any level of skill or experience. This therapeutic Hatha style of yoga has a deep grounded awareness to body alignment offering an uplifting,  non-dual philosophy to honor each students own sense of unique inner self and their relationships to a healthier life-style.

Tell me more about the classes?
The principle behind 5 Points Yoga Anusara classes are aimed to inspire "the power of the heart as the force behind every action or expression in an asana".
Our classes help students of all skill levels, bonded together by a sense of community and family, transitioning into the yoga practice of deep breathing, and pose sequences which will awaken a self-discovery as we build strength, flexibility and energy flow.

Athens Five Points Yoga has created a studio space in a tight knit community of good people where good things are happening. Our classes are scheduled by a monthly calendar to accomodate all levels of experience as well as offering a variety of yoga styles.
All classes are led by certified instructors whose quality of practice will help facilitate each students individual progress of learning and growth.

The Three A's of Anusara

  1. Attitude
  2. Alignment
  3. Action
John Friend draws the following analogy on the use and interplay of Attitude , Alignment , and Action in one's yoga practice:A musician (yogi) makes music (performs an asana) by expressing his heart ( Attitude ) through the playing ( Action ) of a properly tuned instrument ( Alignment of the body). The highest expression of an asana (the most beautiful music that a musician can potentially play with a particular instrument) occurs when the instrument of the body is optimally Aligned , the Action is strong and balanced, and the Attitude is spiritually pure and powerful.
