Seeking interest... Feel free to forward on to others.
This online beta test, like the full course, will consist of six sessions that run for two hours each.
The first session will be an introduction. Then, each of the four chapters of the yoga sūtras will be covered in its own dedicated session. The sixth and final session will be a summary. In all sessions, discussion is encouraged.
Your contribution will be to actively participate and give constructive feedback, helping me to make the course more accessible and useful.
Register your interest by phoning Dan Alder: 0402 565 441
Please do not text, other than to arrange a time to call.
Typically, it is fine to call between 8am and 5pm.
I aim to conduct these online sessions at a time that is suitable to the participants — possibly nighttime or early morning. And, to complete the sessions within a 2-week time frame during March. Let’s see who registers and take it from there.

Thank you, Praveena Lakshmidurai, for your time and allowing for such an open and honest expression of my views. It was a pleasure talking to you.
I interviewed Dan Alder today on Focus and Flow Yoga Podcast. Join us on this thought provoking conversation on thought cessation!
The Yoga Sutras of Patañjali is an ancient yoga literature comprising of 196 statements in 4 chapters laying out the fundamentals of yoga, how to practice it, the special-powers that come from practice and ultimately deep diving into a state of liberation.
In this podcast, Praveena interviews Dan to dissect parts of the Yoga Sutras to not only teach you what to believe, but to stoke your own curiosity so that you begin or progress in your own fulfilling journey of yoga philosophy.
