Daily practice is something special. When we reorganize our day to prioritize practice, to carve out the time and space for the ritual of personal sadhana, we start to see and feel ourselves and the world around us more and more clearly. The incessant story-telling we are habituated to, which narrates our days and dictates how we feel, begins to release its grip, giving way to a more essential story, an unadulterated experience of this life.

But we know it’s not necessarily easy to find the time. Work, family, all the rest of it. This is why I started offering the biannual Maha Yoga Challenge. Let’s challenge ourselves to practice every day for a month and watch our practice and our hearts quantum leap to a new level! Both as individuals and as a community.

To accommodate myriad schedules, I’ll be adding 6:30-7:35am classes every Monday through Friday during the challenge. You’ll have the choice between that class and the other class I teach that day. Note that on Monday, the only class offered is the early morning class and on Sunday, only the 5:30pm will be offered.

Every early morning class will be followed by an optional 15-minute guided meditation. Double challenge yourself with daily asana practice and a daily sit. Or join in for more than one class a day to see what that does!

On occasional evenings, you’ll receive an inspirational email, reminding you to get a good night’s sleep and prepare for your practice the next day.

To complete the challenge, practice six days a week with me at Shala. That is, you can take one day off per week of your choosing. Have a look at the schedule to the right; you might want to map out your month in advance. Out of town or home practice will not count towards challenge completion. But! You will also have access to the On-Demand video library for days you can’t make it to class but you want to keep the momentum strong.

Your price includes the Maha Yoga prize for those who complete the challenge. The challenge begins with the Monday 6:30am class on April 1st, and ends on May 1st.

Open to all levels!
