Contact Yoga is
an inspiring new vision and
philosophy of yoga created to inform
and enhance your relationships with
friends, lovers and yoga partners.
Grounded in traditional yoga
postures, Contact Yoga explores that
mysterious and dynamic edge where
two people connect - physically,
emotionally, and spiritually.
Offering valuable insight into the
emotional and energetic dynamics of
relationships,
CONTACT breaks
down the barriers that keep us
trapped in separation by putting us
deeper in touch with ourselves, and
our partners at the same time.
Whether just friends, passionate
lovers, yogis and yoginis in a class
together, CONTACT opens the pathway
to dynamically discover the secrets
of a successful and fulfilling
relationship. Using poses
specifically designed for two
practitioners and utilizing the
Seven Points of Contact:
Trust, Passion,
Commitment, Love, Communication,
Vision, and Union, Contact Yoga
brings relationship into the body,
reflecting, in graphic immediacy,
our deepest patterns of connecting
and distancing, loving and
protecting, giving and receiving,
patterns that usually remain
unconscious. This exquisite
combination of openness and contact
creates greater connection and
intimacy for the practitioners,
increasing their joy of being fully
alive; and this joy is more than
doubled when shared with another.
As a provocative
philosophy and dramatic practice for
all who engage with it, Contact Yoga
is revolutionizing the image of
modern yoga and the dynamics of
relationships. It’s through intimate
relationship and communication with
each other that we can realize our
true self and our greatest
potential. Contact goes beyond
partner yoga to express and embody
the deeper and more transcendent
aspects of relationship.
In Contact, the
energy of two people moves into
postures to connect with and serve
their desire for a deeper awareness
of self and experience of spiritual
union with another.
