Two Tibetan Yoga Retreats in November at Serenity Ridge
Part 1 for Everyone Plus Concurrent Part 2 Training
Two Tibetan Yoga (trul khor) retreats will be offered at Serenity Ridge in November. The retreats will be held concurrently, with Part 1 set for November 1–4 and Part 2 held November 2–4. Similar to last year, they will be taught by Alejandro Chaoul-Reich,, Ph.D, a senior student of Tenzin Wangyal Rinpoche who has been teaching these retreats for more than 20 years. He will be assisted by Rob Patzig, president and board chair of Ligmincha International, an experienced yoga teacher and trul khor practitioner.
Tibetan Yoga for Health & Well-Being, Part 1 November 1–4, 2018
Beginners and experienced students alike are invited to Serenity Ridge November 1–4, 2018 for instruction in the ancient practice of Tibetan yoga, from the Bön A-tri Dzogchen tradition. This course can stand alone and also will be the first in a series of teachings to take place over the next three years.
In the Tibetan spiritual traditions, body, speech/breath and mind are known as the three doors to enlightenment or the natural state. The contemplative physical movements of Tibetan yoga (trul khor) of the A-tri tradition enable participants to enter all three doors through a single practice, offering a powerful, skillful means for clearing the obstacles and obscurations to openness and clarity in meditation practice. All students are warmly encouraged to learn these movements and benefit from practicing them. There is no prerequisite for attending this retreat.
For those interested in deepening their practice of Tibetan yoga, this retreat will serve as the first in a series for trul khor training based on the Bön A-tri Dzogchen tradition. An intermediate training program will be offered over the following two years, followed by an advanced training for two more years. All trainings will be held at Serenity Ridge. Everyone is welcome to attend!
Trul Khor Graduate Training November 2–4, 2018
This three-day retreat is open to anyone who has previously taken on A-Tri Trul Khor training in the past within Ligmincha, including last year's participants. The retreat will take a more detailed approach to the practice and is a foundation for those wishing to deepen their practice or become certified in guiding A-tri Trul Khor.
