About
The name Jivamukti means Liberation while living. It is taken from the Sanskrit term, Jivanmuktih, which is used to describe the state of enlightenment or God realisation.
Jivamukti Yoga promotes the educational aspect of the practice and gives students access to where these ideas have come from. Each class focuses on a theme, which is supported by Sanskrit chanting, readings, references to scriptural texts, music, spoken word, asana sequencing and yogic breathing practices. The average Jivamukti student is more educated about the philosophy of yoga than most yoga teachers.
