Shadow Yoga
The Shadow Yoga system utilises moving Karana forms as a tool for the body, mind & breath cultivation
Karana
Karana is the folding and unfolding of the body's 6 limbs in action with a bodily stance in a low or high squat, a gesture (mudra) with the hands and movements of the feet. Swaying, stepping and circling transitions link one Karana to another.
Consistent practice of the Karana forms brings to life the rhythmic life currents hidden in the body and can lead to a peaceful space within
Karana: the causal factor
Ka: Space
Ra: fire, transformation
Ana: posture, shape, breathing
A beautiful practice cultivating a moving meditation that takes one's mind to a still place for the seated Asana practice and seated meditation
The retreat will focus on one Karana form that is appropriate for the group
