Building inclusive communities through innovative design
At Zen Den Yoga School, we are dedicated to providing a safe and nurturing environment for yogis and yoginis of all levels to grow and practice the yoga lifestyle. We believe that yoga is not just a physical practice, but a vehicle for spiritual insight and self-discovery. Our philosophy is rooted in the true meaning of the word YOGA, which is to yolk or bring together. We aim to bring together different yoga traditions and styles to create a unique and inclusive community.
Our Vision
Our vision is to create an environment where everyone can practice and learn yoga, regardless of socio-economic status or physical ability. We believe that yoga is a universal language that can bring people together and help them connect with their inner selves. We strive to create a space where everyone feels welcome and supported on their yoga journey.
Our Philosophy
At Zen Den Yoga School, we believe that all beings are an embodiment of the divine, the Supreme Consciousness, the highest Self. We honor the yin and yang, the Sun and Moon, the male and female, and recognize the beauty and love in all aspects of life. We believe that yoga is not just a physical practice, but a spiritual practice that can help us connect with our deepest selves and with the world around us.
Our Yoga Lineage
We draw inspiration from various yoga traditions, including Sivananda yoga and Ashtanga yoga. Our primary Flows are Sadhana Chakra Hatha Flow and Sadhana Vinyasa Flow, which are inspired by these two traditions.
