On The Horizon: Fall 2021

On The Horizon: Fall 2021

Here are a few of the many things on the horizon here at renyoga…..

(A) Morning Renewal – Expanded Duration: After our pilot expanded class the first week of August, we have decided to keep the longer format on a permanent basis. Hence, starting the first week of September, our Morning Renewal class (Thursdays at 8am) will be 45 minutes in length. The cost of the class is $8, or having an unlimited pass.

(B) Renyoga University: This is in its developmental stage but we expect to roll it out by October 1st – or sooner. Renyoga University classes will be approximately 1-month longer and conducted over Zoom. There will be weekly live sessions for registrants; all enrollees will have access to the replay if they miss a class. Non-enrollees will have the ability to rent any class they wish, but will not be able to attend the live. The basic idea will be to pursue a given topic over a period of time to allow for expanded discussion, study, and review. Questions are welcomed in between sessions and may be addressed via extra Zoom sessions that will be made available to all registrants. Enrollees will be called upon to attend to short assignments in between sessions that will serves as a springboard for further inquiry into the topic

The first Renyoga university course will be on the Mahabharata & Bhagavad Gita. This topic was chosen for a few reasons:
(a) I regularly receive queries on this subject;
(b) it is an excellent topic to use as a springboard for understanding yogic philosophy and spiritual thought;
(c) most often this topic demands a guide to introduce people to the complex array of terminology and characters, and, perhaps more importantly, shed light on the differences between Hinduism and yoga;
(d) it provides tremendous opportunity to apply yogic principles and remedies to life in this modern world;
(e) it stands as one of the greatest epics and tales ever told.

The expectation is to change topics every month or so. We are open to receiving requests on future topics – write us here.

Please watch for more details about this in the coming days and weeks – we expect things to move fast and open registration soon – thanks.

(C) Personal Coaching / Counseling: This is in its infancy, but would provide a platform for one-on-one sessions to provide support and proposed solutions to given issues. Yogic teachings offer great application and serve as an antidote for many challenges that people are facing today. While I have both academic training and experience in the field of counseling, the novelty of these sessions would be the emphasis placed on yogic principles, which are both psychological and universal in nature and geared toward human growth and development. Those interested in sessions in the immediate future may contact me; more info will be made available soon.
