Style

At Yoga Connect we teach Hatha Yoga in the Shadow Style.

Shadow Yoga was founded by Natanaga Zhander (Shandor Remete). It is rooted in classical hatha yoga but is modern in its approach. Drawing on the yoga texts, the practice emphasises three prelude forms, which prepare the student for the classical asanas.

Shadow Yoga integrates and reflects principles found in yoga, Indian cultural dance, martial arts, and the Ayurvedic and Siddha systems of medicine. The practice combines leg work and fluid arm movements with deep breath work to strengthen and free the energy in the body's peripheral channels. This energy increases one's feeling of being centered, enlivened, and more in contact with the life force.
