Kundalini Yoga Class at the Barn
Kathleen Berney (spiritual name Satya Raj Kaur) is a longtime yoga practitioner and teacher. Kathleen’s life was saved and her soul set afire by Jivamukti style vinyasa yoga in the late 1990’s, which led her to study Mysore Style Ashtanga Vinyasa yoga in the Sri K. Pattabhi Jois lineage. In 2000, Kathleen earned her 200 hours at YogaWorks in Santa Monica, CA under the late Maty Ezraty. She completed an ashtanga vinyasa teacher training with Richard Freeman in Boulder and was privileged to have studied with a host of other well known yogis in NYC. From 2002-07, Kathleen owned River Yoga in Westerly, RI where she taught a mixture of ashtanga, vinyasa, slow flow, restorative, and baby mommy yoga. Kathleen is now a certified Kundalini yoga teacher through the Kundalini Research Institute and Yoga at the Ashram in Millis. She teaches kundalini yoga at Ritual Vibes, Foxboro, MA and at workshops across New England. Kathleen is also a humble student of Iyengar yoga. It is an honor for Kathleen to facilitate a safe space for students to inhabit their body/mind and experience healing.

Yoga History with Sofi Dillof | Jivamukti Teacher
The Yogasūtras of Patañjali is the earliest known surviving text systemization of the philosophy and practice of yoga. The Yogasūtras contain 194 sūtras, or aphorisms, which describe the goal of yoga (according to this text) the obstacles to attaining yoga, and the path to overcoming these obstacles.
In this three and a half-hour discussion-based workshop, you will explore the key concepts that comprise the underlying philosophy of the Yogasūtras and have an opportunity to practice some of the techniques given.
Bring your open, curious mind and enjoy exploring these teachings together in a supportive community.
Sofi Dillof is a yogic scholar, long-time teacher, and forever student who has dedicated herself to studying traditional yogic texts.
Give Bliss a Chance
Together we will journey deep into your inner BEing with your guides, Annie Chapman, Marlisa McLaughlin, & Shakti Ma.
We look forward to weaving all these modalities together & bringing bliss into your life.
Winter Solstice Yoga 2023
Begin again and turn your dark thoughts to the light. Since prehistory, the winter solstice has been a significant time of year in many cultures and has been marked by festivals and rituals. It marked the symbolic death and rebirth of the Sun; the gradual waning of daylight hours is reversed and begins to grow again.
Join us for this magical event with fire, music, asana & meditation to honor the true Self. The Yin and the Yang. The dark and the light.
