  • triyoga talks episode 2: Bo Forbes on yoga as a tool for social justice + the convergence of yoga + psychotherapy
    Subscribe: iTunes | Spotify | Stitcher
    Bo Forbes is a clinical psychologist and is at the forefront of new approaches within the world of yoga. Having realised that the field of psychotherapy was missing something crucial, she investigated body-centred and spiritual approaches in her work. The result? A synthesis of healing philosophies drawn from yoga, science, mindfulness and psychology that can have a profound impact on mental, physical and emotional wellbeing.
    We asked Bo why psychotherapy and yoga are such natural fits. She explains, “Psychology has always had this desire, this drive, to understand the human mind and emotions and, depending on what we study, the spirit and how they interact. Yoga philosophy and a lot of the texts have embedded in them a kind of manual for emotional healing. To me they are very complementary. Today, if you teach yoga in any respect, you really are going to be teaching classes where the majority of people are struggling with emotional wellbeing and systemic oppression and trauma.
    “We are really at a turning point in our modern approaches to wellbeing. Soon we won’t accept treatment that isn’t inherently integrated and speaking to more than just the mind or more than just our biochemistry.”
    In our latest podcast, Bo also talks about how yoga teachers can speak to students suffering from anorexia nervosa, and how yoga can be used as a tool for social justice in creating politically awake communities.
    Bo will be coming to triyoga from 3-5 August 2018 to teach a series of workshops on yoga, science, psychology + social justice: creating individual + collective wellbeing. Sign up for the full weekend or individual workshops here.

  • triyoga talks podcast episode 1 : Maty Ezraty on self-exploration, sexual misconduct + social media in yoga

    Subscribe: iTunes | Spotify | Stitcher

    In our inaugural triyoga talks podcast, we speak with Yogaworks co-founder Maty Ezraty who tells us why advanced posture work alone cannot lead to enlightenment, when self-exploration shifts into self-absorption, and the effect social media has had on the yoga landscape.

    Maty Ezraty is a globally renowned teacher, known for her joyful and determined approach, a keen eye for observation and a depth of knowledge steeped in over 30 years of practice. She is also a prominent figure in the evolution of modern yoga. Maty was one of the first women to study Ashtanga intensively with Sri K. Pattabhi Jois, including in Mysore, India. She was also one of the original founders of YogaWorks, where she directed and shaped the YogaWorks Teacher Training program for over 16 years, and trained many of the leading yoga teachers of today.

    “These postures don’t define you and they have nothing to do with your spiritual growth. What is important is that you develop a good relationship with yourself on the mat.”

    Maty Ezraty

    Maty will be coming to triyoga from the 20-29 July 2018 to teach a 10 day immersion on finding the teacher within: deepening your practice to become a better teacher.

    Sign-up for the weekend, 5 days or the full 10 day training here.

And for the first time ever, Maty discusses the sexual misconduct of Pattabhi Jois, the grandfather of Ashtanga Yoga.
