Namaste and welcome. The custom-built Bocas Yoga studio was designed specifically for the practice of Yoga. Here you will find a safe, comfortable, noncompetitive, nonjudgmental, air-conditioned, sound-proofed haven in which you will have the least amount of distractions, in order for you to more fully focus inward. We are located in the big purple building on 4th Street, across from La Casbah restaurant in Bocas Town, Isla Colón.
The teaching style at Bocas Yoga is an eclectic mix of Hatha Yoga, influenced by Anusara Yoga, which uses principles of alignment to promote safety and empower students to achieve their full potential. Each class interweaves heart oriented themes to connect students to the deeper purpose of yoga. Some classes are also inspired by Kundalini Yoga, dealing with un-locking the creative potential that already exists in every human, through exercises designed to awaken and tone the chakra system. Lessons include warm up pranayama (breathing exercises), a steady sequence of asana (physical postures), and a stress-relieving final relaxation. Classes are designed to be challenging, yet creating a sense of ease at the same time, toning body and mind - incorporating the concepts of effort & surrender.
Yoga is noncompetitive. It is not just a work-out, it is not just techniques for relaxation, and it is not just cross-training. It is a spiritual practice that makes the body stronger, more flexible, and generally much healthier. The purpose is to calm the mind, open the heart, and get us in touch with our True Selves. A toned body, stamina, longevity, detoxification, and youthful looks are pleasant bi-products of a regular yoga asana practice, however, the true meaning of yoga is to uncover and realize the pure goodness that resides within us. A regular yoga practice can help us achieve that goal. No experience or flexibility is required to practice yoga. Yoga is for everyone. We respect the point each individual is at.
The Bocas Yoga Studio was designed using principles of Vastu Shastra, the Vedic science of architectural alignment and placement, upon which Feng Shui is based. The way of Vastu aligns the studio with the subtle energies of nature, in order to enhance health, happiness, abundance, and contentedness to those within it. A beautiful blend of science and art was implemented in designing the perfect place for you to practice yoga. The studio is a solid, well-built studio with hard-wood flooring, lots of natural light, a surround sound stereo system, and beautifully uplifting murals on the walls, creating a nurturing ambience without distraction.
At the Bocas Yoga studio you will feel that you are truly part of a healing environment that was designed specifically with your practice in mind. Thank you for sharing your practice with us, and we hope to see you soon! Click here for studio location on a map.
Be steadfast in yoga, O Arjuna. Perform your duty without attachment, remaining equal to success or failure. Such equanimity of mind is called yoga. - "Bhagavad Gita" Chapter 2, Verse 48
