Participants in our two week yoga course will learn a wide variety of classical hatha yogic practices including: yoga asana (yoga postures), pranayama (breath control), mudras (psychic gestures), meditation and deep relaxation techniques. Traditional yogic detox practices will also be introduced including: jala neti (nasal passage cleansing), vaman & dhauti (stomach & esophagus cleansing), laghooshankhaprakshalana (intestinal cleansing) and trataka (gazing at a candle flame).Within a traditional atmosphere, Swan Yoga Retreat teaches yoga using the age old methods of the gurukula (traditional Indian teaching method) in an environment free from dogma.

It is also crucial to understand that there is so much more to yoga than just the practice of asana (physical postures)
