#8003 Aguerrilla yogaThis is a no-nonsense practical useful Yogic skills class. Enlightenment is not the objective. You are already enlightened! This class is about core inner strength through applied Yoga so that you can Occupy Wall Street or any other place you want, and remain powerful. It is not about “Postures” or “Saintliness.” It is about standing up through the use of inner core peace, the breath, and stamina that strengthens, not depletes. The Revolution is here again, but this time we all are included—you too!CONVENER: Alankara CLASS FEE: $9.00Sec. A: 1 session; Saturday, January 28; 12:00 PM - 2:00 PM; Waldo Branch Library, Rm.
