"There is something good in all seeming failures. You are not to see that now. Time will reveal it. Be patient." --Swami Sivananda

Lineage

My practice is informed by two distinct but related tantric lineages, ISHTA Yoga and the Polarity Therapy of Randolph Stone. I am indebted to my teachers Alan Finger, founder of ISHTA Yoga and Heather Principe, founder of the Yoga and Polarity Center. I teach the wisdom handed down by their teachers and their teachers' teachers, and so on... and with their guidance, I share these practices.

Welcome

Namaste,

This term is an acknowledgement that the light in me IS the light in you. So easy to say it in passing, and a lifetime of practice to remember it in every moment of our living. This site is intended as a way to share the yoga philosophy and practices that I have attempted to live by for the past thirty years — my sadhana, my class and workshop schedules, and my writings and other creative developments.

Nature (us humans included) is in a constant state of transformation… something potential is becoming while something solid is starting to fall away… whether we are conscious of it or not. My sadhana is about learning to be with the energy of life’s unfolding in a conscious way by respecting what IS, and by training ourselves to become aware of and ultimately let go of the unconscious patterns that bind us. I would be honored if this website were to inspire you in your transformational practice in any way that is for your highest good and your healing. Please feel free to comment, use what is useful to you, ask questions, or show up in person to participate in our evolving yoga community.

Om Shanti,

Wendy
