The Knowing Body
Exploring Body, Breath, Mind & Consciousness Through Yoga
Led by Holly Kostura, B.S.N., Senior Certified Iyengar Yoga Teacher
Beginning in January 2027! Registration opens Nov. 16, 2026
This four-part hybrid course weaves contemporary anatomy and physiology together with Yoga’s understanding of the human being into one integrated course of study.
Throughout the course, āsana and prāṇāyāma will serve as our laboratory for investigating these relationships through direct experience
This exploration will unfold progressively through four stages of inquiry, revealing the relationships between what we do with our body (activity), the sensations we become aware of (sensitivity), the understanding that arises as we discern the relationships within those sensations (perceptivity), and the clarity and stillness of consciousness through which the Self may be revealed (reflectivity)
Sunday, November 15th @ 10:30 AM ET
Join me for an introduction to The Knowing Body, and experience āsana and prāṇāyāma as doorways that can take us beyond understanding the body's structure and function toward a deeper understanding of ourselves.
You will learn how activity becomes sensitivity, sensitivity develops into perceptivity, and perceptivity ultimately gives rise to reflectivity.

Yoga, a Path of Self-Discovery: Developing an Evolutionary Practice
Led by Nicolo Fonte, Level 2 C.I.Y.T.
Sunday, December 6, 2026 & January 10, 2027
10:00 AM - 12:30 PM ET; $60 for both sessions
“Evolutionary practice is the onward march towards discovery of the Self”
-B.K.S. Iyengar, Light on the Yoga Sūtras of Patañjali, commentary on I.12
The practice of Yoga is far more than the cultivation of physical ability. It is a journey of Self-discovery, offering us an opportunity to see ourselves more clearly, to recognize our habits and tendencies, question our assumptions, and discover possibilities that may have remained hidden from view.
In this two-part workshop, we will practice āsana and prāṇāyāma as a means to gain insight into how the defining characteristics of Iyengar Yoga become instruments of fruitful Self-study, investigating not only what we do in an āsana, but how we do it and why.
In the first session, we will practice a sequence incorporating the different categories of āsanas. Through observation and individual instruction, you will learn how adaptations can enhance your ability to perform the primary actions of each posture, maximizing their beneficial effects.
Each participant will leave with a sequence of āsana and individualized adaptations for home practice that refine the performance of the primary actions, cultivating greater awareness, and deepening your understanding of the each posture’s unique effects.
In the second session, we will explore how to progress from these adaptations toward the classical āsanas, discovering new possibilities through the understanding gained in practice.
The intention is to deepen our capacity for Self-observation and transformation through the refinement of āsana. This process is equally essential to teaching Yoga. As we learn to observe and understand ourselves, we cultivate the capacity to observe and understand others, evolving from knowing what to teach toward understanding how, when, and why to teach it.
