Ben and I met at a school for Buddhism focusing on meditation, philosophy, dialectic, and service in Arizona. We spent a decade there studying and practicing with a beautiful group of dedicated practitioners. After class at night, after the majority of folks went to sleep, a handful of us would stay up late for yoga playtime in the temple. There were so many yoga teachers there from a plethora of different lineages and we’d all stay up to play, doing asanas and learning from each other.
I got to hang out with two of my old besties/teachers a couple weeks ago and we fell right back in step, staying up late philosophizing and practicing together.
Mira Shani helped me with Bakasana/Crane pose. I’ve always been pretty good at Kakasana/Crow pose but it was always hard for me to straighten my elbows from that position. Mira gave me a few tips and voilà, I got it! Just like old times! I love yoga and I love the friends we meet practicing along the way!
Happy Labor Day!
Jessie is teaching at 4:30 and 6pm. She is one of the most badass arm balance practitioners I know! There is so much to learn from her. Come get some jewels to fuel your practice!
Happy Labor Day weekend! We hope you all get a well deserved break. It’s so nice to take a moment, a day, a week or longer to stop and reflect on what’s important to us. One of the best ways I know how to listen in to my heart is getting on the mat and exploring who I am at that moment. Practicing yoga provides us with the space to explore, to be present, and to recommit to the highest vision we have of ourselves.
Come practice tomorrow with Dustin at 11:30. He is a master at using the asanas as a means of guiding his students inwards to explore the realm of the subtle body and the mind.

Practicing yoga sets us on a path of discovering who we are. It helps us recognize who we want to be. It’s a journey of learning to fall in love with ourselves over and over again, each time we get on the mat discovering something wonderfully unique and beautiful about ourselves.
This deep love and appreciation we experience for ourselves on the mat starts to weave itself into our daily life and we begin to recognize the beauty in everyone!
Come practice with this angel sage of yogi today at 4:30 and discover what there is to love about yourself today!
They say that hope is a type of nutrients and that we need it to keep going when things get hard. Our yoga class provides us with nutrients on so many levels. Deep breathing doses the body with freshly oxygenated blood which is probably the most important nutrient there is. But the hope we get from our yoga teacher is in valuable!
This young lady gives me hope every time I see her beautiful smile and every time I get to practice with her! Come practice with Florent to day at 4:30, she will fill your heart right up!
Come hangout with us this weekend!
Our Sunday line up of classes and teachers is off the charts! Starting the day early with Mysore, then 26&2, Yoga on the Ropes, Yoga with Dustin, Vinyasa with Jessie, and ending at 5:30 with Warm Restorative. So much to choose from. Consider taking a double! 😉

Agnistambhasana or Fire Log Pose is one of my favorites for opening the hips, it’s particularly great for stretching the piriformis, which is often the main cause of sciatic pain.
It does have to be practiced with care, placing a block under the top knee if needed and don’t force it. Not everyone’s hip structure allows both knees to come down. Practicing yoga poses can be thought of as preventative medicine. Don’t push it, find what feels correct for your unique skeletal structure and honor it. It’s hard when we compare ourselves to all the incredible images that we see on social media. We often think that if I work just a little harder I can do it too. Maybe but maybe not. We want to practice for our whole life! I like to think of my practice as a marathon. Slow and steady wins the prize!
Come practice with this lovely yogini bright and early tomorrow morning!

On Tuesday and Thursday at the noon class we’ve been going verse by verse through The Haṭha Yoga Pradīpikā by Master Svātmārāma.
In verse ten he says that through the practice of Haṭha Yoga, one’s entire being is made fit and strong, as a shelter from the effects of the pain that comes from this life. Svātmārāma says that Haṭha Yoga is like the basis acting like a tortoise.
Being a human is challenging. Practicing yoga gives us a moment in the day to reflect on whatever is going on in our life that might need a little care and attention. It helps us find strength when we are feeling weak, empowered when feeling helpless, faith when feeling a lack of hope and despair. I could go on and on. Take refuge in your practice!
We have a special treat for you 26&2 practitioners! This Wednesday Ana Lopez will come teach us a class at 9:30 in Spanish!
I love traveling around the world and taking this class from teachers who offer it in the local language! It is a fun way to pick up a few phrases if you know the series!
…………………………………………..:
My name is Ana Lopez. I found Hatha Yoga at 24 years, and fell in love with it immediately. Keeping a consistent practice throughout all these years and becoming a Kundalini Yoga Instructor in brought me to NM in 2003. A good friend introduced me to Bikram Yoga in 2005, and I became a number one fan from the beginning, I gained so much mental and physical flexibility!! After 18 wonderful years of living in NM, I moved back to Spain, where I felt the call to became a Bikram Yoga instructor, taking the 200h training at Bikram Yoga Spain.
I love teaching as much as practicing. Yoga makes me feel at home wherever I am, giving me the ability to connect with my true essence and with everybody else around me.
I am thrilled to be able to share my love for yoga with you all. Namaste
#26&2
Learning to feel and listen to the subtle body gives the yogi another tool in the handbag for helping battle sickness, disruptive thoughts, and emotions. One of the goals, or results even, of practicing yoga asana is to create an awareness of the subtle body but it can take time, determination, and practice.
Practicing with yogis who have dedicated themselves to learning about how prana works is key to helping us learn how to work with own subtle body.
Dustin is one such teacher and we are honored to have him teaching at Nirguna Yoga!

We have been going verse by verse through The Hatha Yoga Pradipika on Tuesday and Thursdays at the noon class. The author of the text, Master Svatmarama, talks about the importance of having a practice and sticking with it. He says that the practice of Hatha Yoga is a powerful method that can help us reach Raja Yoga, deep meditative concentration! A little bit of consistent practice can radically transform our lives! What a gift!
We like going upside down at Nirguna Yoga! There is something special about conquering our fear of inversions, it feels a little like gaining a super power! It’s also one of the amazing things about having a yoga practice. Just living in a world where you are constantly surprised and in awe of what you can do!

So grateful to have Hillary teaching Yin Yoga at Nirguna. It is such a great way to start the week, gently getting into the grove of the week by taking care of the body and mind. Yin Yoga allows us to reach deep meditative states in our yoga practice that carries over into our everyday lives and routines.

Some of the hardest poses are the most basic ones, like Utkatasana or Chair Pose. Actually Utkatasana means fierce pose. It can feel fiercely challenging. If you tend to be overly flexible in your lower back in can be hard to find length in your lower spine. I find that it is helpful to find the length in the lower spine before coming down too low. Using core muscles to support the length in the lower spine and then lifting to chest, creating more flexibility in the upper spine. Trying to find that edge and then sitting down deeper into an imaginary chair but only to the point where I can maintain the length in the lower spine.
Play with it!

Every Tuesday and Thursday at the noon Hot Vinyasa class Kendra will be teaching a verse from the Hatha Yoga Pradipika!
It was written by Master Swatmarama around 1500 and it’s one of the first recorded texts that talk about the physical practice of yoga.
The Yoga Sutra was written around 200-700 AD, with 196 verses only 3 are about physical yoga asana. And the poses that it’s referring to are just the ones related to our seated posture in meditation.
The Hatha Yoga Pradipika goes into detail about many of the poses that we practice today in addition to other cleansing practices that help prepare the mind for reaching higher states of consciousness!
It will take a few months but we will get through the entire text!
I feel so lucky to have found a sustainable form of exercise that is fun! Sometimes I feel like I take for granted the fact that I just love getting on the mat. I know it can be so hard for people to cultivate a regular exercise regiment. It makes it so much easier if it’s fun and even silly! We just won’t want to keep doing it if it’s not fun. And I know that initially it can be hard to find the joy in it when it’s hard. It can take some time but try to come at it with mind of a child just exploring all the crazy things that their body can do. Try to think of it as playtime!
Come practice Mysore with Robin tomorrow to work on this pose! It might bring the same smile on your face! Space is limited, sign up quick.
