Summer Gather – Iyengar Retreat

Join Kerry Doyle, for a weekend retreat in the beautiful Monadnock region of New Hampshire. Deepen and enrich your practice of Iyengar Yoga on an immersive 3-day retreat with a Certified Iyengar teacher in Dublin, NH. Discover how to practice asana with thoughtful sequencing and mindfulness in order to awaken dormant energy, and create sensitivity that allows you to move deeper inward.

The ancient yogis recognized various aspects or layers of a person – from the outermost layer to an inner, deeper Self. These are referred to as the kosas. Like Russian dolls, one kosa encompasses another, and so on. The aim of yoga as taught by BKS Iyengar has the potential to guide us from the periphery, the body, to the center of our being, the soul. The aim is to integrate the various layers so that we feel a sense of harmony and balance from the outer periphery to the inner, serene core.
