Dear Friends,

We are closing.

Our last day is Thursday, March 28th



55 Broderick Drive, Suite C

Brentwood, Ca 94513

At the Brentwood Yoga Center we believe in community.  We provide safe, educational, classic yoga to all ages, body shapes, and abilities.  We believe that practicing together as a community creates a supportive atmosphere in which each student is guided and nurtured in order to grow and develop at their own pace.

Yoga is a holistic system intended to purify the mind, body and spirit.  The most popular form of yoga in the West is called Hatha Yoga which is primarily a practice of poses (called Asana in sanskrit), breath work (Pranayama), and meditation (Dyana).  But, there is much more to yoga; there are actually five more branches of yoga which create the classic eight branches enumurated by the great sage, Pantanjali.  They are: Yama (universal laws, Niyama (self purification/discipline), Pratahara (withdrawal of the mind/domination of the senses), Dhrana (concentration), and Samadhi (enlightenment).  It is through the holistic, ongoing practice of yoga (Hatha or not) that we experience an incredible sense of well-being, self-realization and a blissful connection to the community. 



"The signs of progress on the path of Yoga are health, a sense of physical lightness, steadiness, clearness of countenance, a beautiful voice, sweetness of odour of the body and freedom from craving.  The yogi has a balanced, serene, tranquil mind.  A yogi is the very symbol of humility.  He/She dedicates all actions to a higher source and takes refuge in it.  This frees the yogi from the bondage of karma (action) and moves him/her to Jivana Mukta (a Liberated Soul)"
