Anusara Yoga – Wednesday 6:30pm – 8:00pm  Crow’s Nest, MUSC Wellness Center
Anusara (a-nu-sar-a) yoga, means "flowing with Grace," "going with the flow," "following your heart". It unifies the Tantric yoga philosophy of intrinsic goodness with Universal Principles of AlignmentTM. Founded in 1997 by John Friend, it is one of the most popular and fastest-growing styles of yoga with 12,000 affiliated teachers and 100,000 students worldwide. Anusara Yoga's remarkable popularity is due in large part to its uplifting philosophy, epitomized by a "celebration of the heart," that looks for the good in all people and all things. Consequently, students of all levels of ability and yoga experience are honored for their unique differences, limitations, and talents.
