Registration is NOW OPEN for the week long Ashtanga Yoga Intensive with Dena Kingsberg...

May 11-16, 2025 ~

Dena, of Byron Bay, Australia has been studying and practicing traditional Ashtanga Yoga for almost 40 years. She is a devoted long term student of the late Sri K. Pattabhi Jois. She remains committed, deeply inspired and contiuously amazed by the vast healing potential of this life changing practice. Dena has a disciplined, yet lyrical style of teaching with a holistic approach that looks beyond external form to inspire a passion for self-inquiry and reflection.

"Yoga presents a way of seeing. A way of seeing oneself and a way of seeing reality. This way of seeing is one where we come to understand and take responsibility for our particular personality and behavioral patterns. One where we come to appreciate the complexity of our nature and shift from contraction to expansion."

Sunday May 11: 7am-10am & 12:30pm-2:30pm

Monday-Friday May 12-16: 6:30am-9:00am
