Faith, devotion, courage and perseverance are the characteristics associated with the Hindu god Hanuman. Mythology is a culture’s way of passing down the wisdom of the ancients. How do we survive in a world that can create such pain and suffering? This class weaves in the story behind the pose Hanumanasana, or split pose. In this yoga flow you will work towards and explore the pose itself, and steep in the meaning of it to help you remember that there is joy on the other side of suffering. For this practice, you will need two blocks (or substitutes).
