Freedom and Stability Immersion

Suzanne Zuber’s Freedom and Stability Anusara® Immersion takes you and your group of fellow seekers on an adventure of self-discovery and in-depth exploration of the art and science of Yoga and movement science. This 100 hour immersion is a deep dive, geared towards anyone who wants to start, or expand their practice and understanding of yoga, basic anatomy and movement, and gain an overview over the history and philosophy of yoga, from ancient to modern times.

The Freedom and Stability curriculum incorporates ancient and evolving yogic traditions as well as new findings from movement science and stress research. Through the anatomy-based and heart-centered Anusara®Method, you will develop your capacity to lead a resilient life of freedom by cultivating stability as well as flexibility, and integrating body, mind, and heart. This training is for anyone who loves, or is curious about yoga, and who wants to learn and experience more.

Alignment based Anusara Yoga

Anusara Yoga provides an elegant, intuitive system of alignment steps called “Universal Principles of Alignment” based on anatomy and bio-mechanics, which can be equally be applied to deeper levels of mind, emotion, and intuition. Of Iyengar-lineage, Anusara® Yoga is infused with the teachings of Non-Dualism, where the body, mind, and spirit are not separate but one, and where freedom and vibrance don’t need to be ‘earned’, but exist inside of us already, and can be tapped by aligning these three (body, mind and spirit).
