The Sanskrit Training combines the two powers, Sanskrit and yoga, to create an educational adventure that will not only give you the joy of reading sutras in the original script, and pronouncing them with precision, but will change the way you perceive the learning experience forever. Operating through mutual agreement, participants break through old learning patterns based on the competitive, "get it right," model, and bond with the beauty and energy of Sanskrit as well as with each other.
What you will learn in the course of the weekend:
- a powerful new learning model that teaches you the key to sustained one-pointed focus & gives you complete comfort and enjoyment in a group learning environment
- the opening of your voice; your capacity to fully resonate and heal with sound
- an intimate understanding of the structure of sacred sound: the Sanskrit Alphabet; knowledge & practice of the sounds of the alphabet as bija mantras for chakra tuning
- how to read Sanskrit, and use the recognition of the original script to enhance your experience of sacred sound
- the essence of yoga, through the model of Patanjali's Yoga Sutras in the original
