Posture. Stillness. Breath.
At Calgary Hot Yoga we practice the Ghosh Yoga Lineage
Yoga in Calgary is very Vinyasa dominant, but there is so much more to explore! At Calgary Hot Yoga, we practice Ghosh Yoga, first taught by Bishnu Ghosh in Calcutta in the early 1900s. The Ghosh Yoga College still exists there to this day!
What Is Ghosh Yoga?
Ghosh Yoga is:
-
Therapeutic Exercises
-
Beginner, Intermediate and Advanced Postures
-
Pranayama and Meditation
-
A Practice for Everyone
Ghosh Yoga is a yoga tradition first practiced and taught by Bishnu Charan Ghosh beginning in the early 1900s. Although this tradition begins with him, it’s roots can be traced back through even earlier texts and philosophies.
An overarching phrase or mantra that can define Ghosh Yoga is: Posture. Stillness. Breath. In this practice we use stillness during and after each posture to create a tension and releasing effect. It is in the stillness that we experience ourselves in the present moment.
