* SPECIAL EVENT $45 * Exploring the 5 Koshas / Yoga Philosophy Workshop
This class is taught by:
Tracy Gross
Tracy Gross, ERYT 500, YACEP.
Tracy has been teaching yoga since 2015 when she completed her 200-hour training at Asheville Yoga Center in North Carolina. She then completed specialized certifications in Restorative Yoga (2017), Yin Yoga and Chair Yoga (2018), and a 300-hour advanced training in 2019. Since then, she’s logged enough teaching hours to hold both ERYT 500 and YACEP credentials through Yoga Alliance.
Tracy continues to study yoga philosophy with her teacher, Michael Johnson, and has recently started learning to read and write Sanskrit. Although she loves a heated flow class, her favorite practices, both to teach and to do herself, are the quieter ones: restorative, yin, and meditation. Her classes have a lighthearted, welcoming feel, often woven with philosophy, storytelling, and reflection.
Though she has traveled the world and settled in many places over the years, Tracy is happiest back home in the Pocono Mountains of Pennsylvania where she was born. When she’s not teaching or on the mat, you’ll find her hiking, mountain biking, paddle boarding, or silversmithing in her home art studio creating beautiful jewelry.
Join Tracy Gross for a journey through the layers of being. In this workshop, we will explore the Five Koshas—the sheaths or layers that make up our being, from the physical body to the deepest self. This introduction to the Koshas will offer a blend of discussion, movement, and meditation to help you experience these layers firsthand.
We’ll begin with an accessible joint mobilization practice to awaken the body, followed by an engaging conversation on the Koshas and how they relate to yoga philosophy and daily life. The workshop will conclude with guided meditation designed to bring awareness to each Kosha, leaving you with a deeper understanding of yourself and a sense of balance and connection.
All levels are welcome. Arrive with curiosity and an open mind.
