SUMMARY:HATHA ・RAJA ・ Awakening Through Practice: Philosophy on the Mat
DESCRIPTION:Celebrating 6 Branches of Integral Yoga\n60 Year Anniversary Weekend Celebration • Friday\, OCT 2 – Sunday\, OCT 4\nHATHA • physical well-being | RAJA • mental mastery | BHAKTI • devotion | JNANA • wisdom & Self-realization\nKARMA • selfless service | JAPA • transformation through sacred sound\n\nONLINE & IN-PERSON with Swami Ramananda \n$5–54 individual session | $54–540 weekend pass\nAccepted memberships: Active teachers\, Weekend Pass holders\, and “Friends” all levels \nBook now/OnlinePlease register in advance: a Zoom link will be emailed 1 hour before the session\, or join Zoom directly via your Momence dashboard. \nBook now/In-PersonWe appreciate advance registration. \nDeepening our understanding of Yoga in the context of its original purpose can transform the way we practice. Beyond physical movement\, Yoga offers a path toward stilling the mind and reconnecting with the deeper awareness that is our true nature. Without this understanding\, our practice can easily be shaped by unconscious habits\, conditioning\, and the pressures of modern culture.\nIn this experiential class\, we will weave together asana\, pranayama\, meditation\, and Yogic philosophy to cultivate greater awareness of the body\, breath\, mind\, and subtle energy. Through mindful movement and self-observation\, we explore how practice can help us move beyond conditioned patterns and open to greater balance\, clarity\, and inner connection. Over time\, this approach can nurture a deeper sense of peace\, belonging\, and authentic well-being.\n\nSwami Ramananda\, C-IAYT\, E-RYT 500\, is the Executive Director of the Integral Yoga Institute in San Francisco\, C-IAYT\, and a greatly respected senior teacher in the Integral Yoga tradition who has been practicing Yoga for over 45 years. Ramananda offers practical methods of integrating the timeless teachings and practices of Yoga into daily life and transforming the painful aspects of human experience into steps toward realizing one’s full potential.\nHe leads beginner\, intermediate and advanced-level Yoga teacher training programs in San Francisco and offers a variety of programs in many locations in the U.S.\, Europe and South America. Ramananda co-developed the Stress Management Teacher Training program with Swami Vidyananda\, has trained many teachers to bring Yoga into corporate\, hospital and medical settings\, and has taught mind/body wellness programs in many locations. He is a certified Yoga therapist and founding board member of the Yoga Alliance\, a national registry that supports and promotes yoga teachers as professionals. He co-founded The Spiritual Action Initiative (SAI)\, which brings together individuals committed to working for social justice for all beings and for the care and healing of our natural world. His warmth\, wisdom and sense of humor have endeared him to many. \n\nView Weekend Schedule –PDF \nAll sessions are offered on a sliding scale to support accessibility for all.

SUMMARY:KARMA・Awakening the Joy of Selfless Service with Nonviolent Communication
DESCRIPTION:Celebrating 6 Branches of Integral Yoga\n60 Year Anniversary Weekend Celebration • Friday\, OCT 2 – Sunday\, OCT 4\nHATHA • physical well-being | RAJA • mental mastery | BHAKTI • devotion | JNANA • wisdom & Self-realization\nKARMA • selfless service | JAPA • transformation through sacred sound\n\nONLINE with Kamala Itzel Hayward \n$5–54 individual session | $54–540 Weekend Pass\nAccepted memberships: Active teachers\, Weekend Pass* holders\, and “Friends” all levels \nAll sessions are offered on a sliding scale to support accessibility for all. You may pay for individual sessions or purchase a Weekend Pass\, which serves as one payment for all sessions throughout the weekend. Weekend Pass holders must still register in advance for each session they wish to attend in order to reserve their space. As a special weekend in support of our nonprofit mission\, we invite you to contribute as generously as you are able to help us continue sharing the classical teachings of Integral Yoga with all who seek them for years to come. Thank you. \nBook now/OnlinePlease register in advance: a Zoom link will be emailed 1 hour before the session\, or join Zoom directly via your Momence dashboard. \nNonviolent Communication\, or NVC\, offers practical tools for us to practice Karma Yoga—the path of selfless service. At its most superficial level\, NVC provides a framework for speaking with truthfulness (satya) and nonviolence (ahimsa). However\, NVC is rooted in the understanding that the most direct path to peace is through self-awareness and awareness of our interdependence. And when our NVC practice becomes well-established\, we release attachment to outcomes and the knowing of our shared humanity awakens.\nIn this workshop\, we explore what it means to give in a way that is selfless and joyful—giving that springs not from attachment\, obligation\, or aversion\, but from the expansive movement of our heart toward another. Through this exploration\, we discover the paradox that lies at the center of Karma Yoga: that when we give freely and fully\, the distinction between giver and receiver dissolves\, and we experience our fundamental human interconnection—the recognition that we are not separate.\nKamala Itzel Hayward was an economic justice and public policy lawyer for over a decade before shifting her focus to wellness\, mindfulness\, and healing. The liberatory\, embodied\, trauma-informed lens she developed across both paths now shapes everything she does. Itzel specializes in bringing Yoga and mindfulness to communities directly impacted by systemic oppression. She is the founder of the Integral Yoga Institute’s Scholarship-Based Yoga Teacher Training for Black\, Indigenous\, and People of Color. She’s also an Adjunct Professor at UC Law SF\, where she teaches her students to facilitate equitable group processes through mindful presence\, power-consciousness\, and empathic engagement.

Yoga and Kung Fu are integrated into her daily life as a mother\, a preschool teacher\, and an advocate for gender\, race\, and class equality through multiple non-profit groups. \nNathalie Rukmini Ando\, E-RYT 500\, YACEP\, is a Yoga teacher\, trainer\, and graphic designer\, Brazilian of Japanese descent.
