Engaging With the Eight Limbs of Yoga

The Art of Weaving: Creating Yoga Classes that Embody the Eight Limbs


Listen Later

How do you design a yoga class that does more than just lead poses? You weave the Eight Limbs into its very fabric.

In this episode, Dr. Hakeem Ali-Bocas Alexander provides a masterclass in structuring engaging, holistic sessions that seamlessly integrate philosophy, physicality, and community, leaving students transformed both on and off the mat.

• Learn how to establish a powerful class intention anchored in a specific limb, creating a focused theme that guides the entire practice.

• Discover how to blend direct instruction, guided meditation, and interactive discussion to cater to diverse learning styles and keep students engaged.

• Get strategies for fostering a "sense of inquiry" that encourages students to connect yogic principles to their own daily lives.

• Understand the importance of a reflective closing ritual (like journaling or sharing) to solidify learning and empower personal application.

• See how a thoughtfully structured class can be a transformative container for personal development, connection, and liberation.
