Philosophical Ground of Fluid Strength
Yoga Philosophy
Fluid Strength is rooted in the eight limbs of yoga* as described in The Yoga Sutras of Patanjali. They provide clear and wise guidance for living a fulfilled life.
The eight limbs are usually thought of sequentially and practiced individually. In Fluid Strength they are woven into a synergistic whole which brings a concentrated potency to the practice.
Feldenkrais Neuromotor Learning Principles
The Feldenkrais Method couples movement with self-awareness to help people gain more access to their potential. Refining self-awareness is an essential component of neuromotor learning and as such is a natural companion of traditional yoga.
Ayurvedic Healing Principles
Yoga and Ayurveda are rooted in the same philosophy, making them mutually supportive of each other’s goals. Embedded in Fluid Strength are a number of Ayurvedic healing principles that impart their rejuvenating power to the practice.
“Yogic philosophy is interwoven into the class in a way that only a sage teacher can do.” Ann (Massage and Shiatsu Practitioner)
“I came to Fluid Strength looking for a low stress, low impact way to exercise without hurting myself. The practice is both easy on my touchy system and pleasurable to do. I have gained strength, and mobility. My posture has been transformed, and I feel more resilient.” Claudia (artist)
