Philosophy

Lori Charko Philosophy

“I am continually amazed at the power of yoga to transform lives, both in my own experience and with my students. I have seen first-hand, the physical, mental, emotional and spiritual benefits that a regular yoga practice can offer. It is for this reason, I feel compelled to continue sharing the practice of yoga with others.

Over the past several years, my classes have evolved to become more therapeutically based, which means it is my interest to help students prevent and manage dis-ease. Keeping mindfulness, posture and breath work central to my teachings, I also regularly make use of meditation and mantras for the benefits they bring. We all have vast human potential, and I would be happy to support you on your unique journey.

Whether you are new to yoga or a seasoned practitioner, I believe that something extraordinary brought you to this moment. Although everyone’s path is different, I have seen how yoga offers a clear route that can help integrate all aspects of being (physical, mental, emotional and spiritual) and create a sense of freedom. With a little self-investigation and expanded awareness, it truly can be a natural and enjoyable process.

I look forward to sharing this journey with you as you explore your inner and outer worlds. May you live a balanced life full of peace, love and happiness.”
