Willow Street Yoga Center and Anusara Yoga

Our Vision and Purpose

Willow Street Yoga Center seeks to ignite the flame of awareness, through the spiritual practice of Yoga, to awaken to the joy we innately are. We will be a vehicle for change to help students become strong and flexible in both mind and body, and through this, release attachments and inhibitions to embrace the divine spark within. We will do this in an environment that is safe, respectful and nurturing for all.

Anusara means "flowing with Grace"

WSYC teaches Anusara Yoga, the fastest-growing stye of yoga in the world. It was developed by Master teacher, John Friend, and is attracting yogis of all levels with its light-hearted yet profound celebration of the human spirit, and its transformative therapeutic power.

Anusara Yoga teachers are dedicated to help each student unveil their innate goodness, worthiness and full potential. As an all-inclusive yoga, Anusara Yoga deeply respects and honors each person's unique differences, limitations and talents.

Willow Street Yoga Center is the largest Anusara center in the country with many options for in-depth study.

What is Yoga?

Yoga is comprised of postures, breathing exercises and meditation - part of an ancient holistic system of personal development designed to help balance the physical, mental and spiritual aspects of ourselves.

By releasing physical and mental tensions, yoga liberates vast resources of energy.

The postures stretch, tone and strengthen muscles, joints and spine, and stimulate internal organs, glands and nerves. Breathing exercises revitalize and cleanse, and meditation brings increased clarity and inner peace.

As body, mind and spirit are more deeply integrated, our lives begin to flow with optimal ease, energy and intelligence.
