Samasthitihi in Every Pose January 10-24, 2015 with Chuck Miller

Guest Teacher Yoga Retreat Samasthitihi in Every Pose January 10-24, 2015 with Chuck Miller About the honoring the beginning retreat program:

A message from Chuck:

We have the method; the practice is to bring the method to Life!

We must fill in the blanks with our own experience, use what we feel in

this moment, adjusting the practice to our present condition. And we

must do this for a lifetime.

Together we can explore how to gather the wisdom that enables us to

trust our inner voice. We can learn to let that inner voice guide us

through the ever-changing Sea of Samsara. Halahala! Into the Sea of

Amrita Bindhu! The “Nectar of Immortality!” The transformation from Moha

to Shantieh . . . Peace!

Why not! If we can loosen our grip on our current Beliefs, “empty our

cups” and show up ready to learn, we can do it! Little by Little!

** This is a two-week retreat, but for those students who cannot commit to two full weeks, there is a one-week option.

 

About the Teacher Chuck Miller

Chuck

got into yoga through an interest in spirituality. This was first

ignited at a young age by an interest in Native American culture and

shamanism.

At the age of 17 he started a regular meditation practice and at 19

got disciplined with a regular pranayama and asana practice. Meditation,

Pranayama and asana were a significant part of everyday from then on.

In 1980 Chuck met Sri K PattabhiJois(Guruji) on his third American

tour in Fairfax California. He taught Chuck the Primary Series the first

day of practice and then on Maui 2 months later he taught Chuck the

entire Intermediate series in one session.

Chuck traveled to Mysore regularly and in 1983 – 1986 began the study

of the advanced sequences. During 1991-1996 Chuck and his partner Maty

learnt up to the beginning of 5th series. Guruji also taught them the

traditional pranayama practice. They sat with him upstairs in the old

Lakshmi Puramshala and practiced it with Guru-ji, or rather tried to

keep up with him!

Chuck enjoys teaching with a focus on the holistic nature of Ashtanga

Yoga, teaching it as both a philosophical system as well as a strong

practical method. Chuck is known for his gentle but deliberate hands-on

adjustments which are both reassuring and challenging.

Teaching since 1988 Chuck was Director of Ashtanga Yoga and was a

co-owner of the original Yoga Works in Santa Monica, California for over

16 years.
