Yoga Philosophy 101 – Judith Hanson Lasater and Lizzie Lasater
Take advantage of this exclusive offer to study the Yoga Sutra with one of Western yoga’s iconic teachers, Yoga Journal co-founder Judith Hanson Lasater, and her daughter, yoga and meditation teacher Lizzie Lasater! Every week you’ll have access to premium video and audio content on how to apply the Sutra (one of yoga’s classic texts and the foundation of yoga philosophy) to work, relationships, parenting, your yoga practice, and much more.
Locked within the Yoga Sutra are tools and advice for how to live your fullest life, on and off the mat.
In this 6-week online course, you’ll start to decode these 196 aphorisms and learn how to apply them to everyday life. And who better to guide you than Yoga Journal co-founder Judith Hanson Lasater and her daughter, yoga and meditation teacher Lizzie Lasater? Judith has been teaching yoga since 1971 and is the author of eight books, including Living Your Yoga: Finding the Spiritual in Everyday Life, which is required reading for many teacher trainings. Lizzie jokes that she’s been practicing yoga since the womb, given her mom’s career, but she is an amazing teacher in her own right.
This unique course on the root of yoga philosophy—Patanjali’s Yoga Sutra—gives you unprecedented access to Judith and Lizzie. Each week you’ll study the sutra with the Lasaters, getting the opportunity to delve into their meaning and application. Plus you’ll get a weekly asana, pranayama, or meditation practice that will help you embody and understand the powerful wisdom of these ancient aphorisms. You’ll finish the course armed with the ability to troubleshoot your life with timeless yogic wisdom.
Take your sutra wisdom deeper (teachers earn non-contact continuing education credits), or start your sutra study with one of Western yoga’s most popular teachers.
