The aims of this practical day are to give participants more
knowledge and experience of the use of sound and mantra
in yoga practice both for their own interest and with regard
to their yoga teaching. There will be plenty of opportunity to
practise the use of sound and mantra in various ways,
developing confidence in teaching sound and mantra in a
class context. We will look at and reflect on the classical
definition of mantra and discuss its relevance both for our
own personal practice and in teaching. The day will be
supported by handouts.
Sarah is a teacher, trainer and therapist in the tradition
of Krishnamacharya. She also teaches Vedic chant and
mantra. She was a Diploma Course Tutor for the BWY and
