WHAT IS ATHA YOGA?
Atha Yoga is our way of sharing the true message of Yoga – and the joy it can bring into our lives – in a way that is accessible and understandable to modern-day women and men.
Atha Yoga is about discovering that there are many individual paths to the one Truth.
Atha Yoga is ultimately about finding joy in the process and actions (‘karma’) of one’s practice (‘sadhana’) and one’s life.
If you want more than the pursuit of happiness through externalities, the perfect job, the ideal partner, a gym body to envy, Atha Yoga can bring you a deeper satisfaction.
Why “Atha”?
The Sanskrit word ATHA is the first word of the first sutra or thread in the famous yoga text “Patanjali’s Yoga Sutras”. It is defined as “now”.
Now is the vital concept in Atha Yoga. After all, when does anything else happen?
