Introduction to Ten-Body Yoga
In this beautifully filmed program, Yogi Akal teaches a unique way to understand oneself through the ten “bodies” – the radiances, layers, or aspects that describe a complete physical, mental, and spiritual Self. Each body carries distinct qualities and capacities, with its own physiology, behavior, elemental structure, and yogic technology.
This Introduction to Ten-Body Yoga course, exclusive to ICYAS, presents the system through a dedicated and carefully structured curriculum. Each of the Ten Bodies is explored through specific Kundalini-style postures, breathwork, meditation, and focused relaxation. Studied individually and as an integrated whole, the Ten Bodies provide a practical framework for strengthening presence, balance, and inner command.
For those new to yoga, Ten-Body Yoga offers clear, accessible techniques that can be applied immediately.
For experienced practitioners, it expands existing practice through a refined and expansive understanding of this unique technology, opening new dimensions of perception and deepening mastery.
Alongside the core practices, the program includes storytelling, reflective teaching, and a special enrichment section supporting women’s vitality and well-being. Participants may return to the lessons and practices as often as they wish, strengthening their understanding and relationship with Ten-Body Yoga over time.
