It was such a pleasure to host Dr Seth Powell today, leading us through a sūtra study workshop. Thank you Harshini for arranging this.

Seth guided us through the Sūtras of Patañjali in a clear, accessible, captivating manner. A joy to experience this sharing of knowledge. Fully affirming of the practice we call yoga. We recommend you check out if you haven’t already. They have many courses.

We were fortunate to see the film at a screening organised by which included a Q & A with one of the Directors, Michael T Workman. If you haven’t yet seen this film, do make time to watch it.

If you can’t go to a screening at the cinema, you can watch it on Watermelon pictures

This film brings hope. It shows how impactful the student encampments were in changing public opinion on the genocide in Gaza being perpetrated by Israel. And in shifting the debate around Palestine / Israel. It is a study in highly effective activism and a very well made film.

Join us for a special philosophy workshop designed for dedicated yoga practitioners and teachers who are eager to deepen their understanding of yoga beyond the mat. Led by renowned yoga scholar Dr. Seth Powell, together we will engage in a close reading and study of one of yoga’s most ancient, important, and mis-understood scriptures.

The Yogasūtra of Patañjali, written some 1,500 years ago, is the earliest extant systematization of Yoga philosophy and practice. Rendered into 195 short, dense, Sanskrit “threads” or sūtras, the Yogasūtra is the root text for the Yoga philosophical tradition. It is a profound treatise on the nature of the human condition which examines: the cognitive mechanics and psychology of the mind-body, the cause of human suffering, and offers a map of psychophysical practices that can be cultivated in order to obtain complete spiritual freedom or liberation.
In this workshop, designed for both beginners and long-time students alike, we will focus on the first and second chapters (pāda), which treat the definition of yoga, the nature of the mind, the cause of suffering and its cure: a detailed “eight-limbed” (aṣṭāṅga) system of yogic practices.

Participants will leave with a deeper understanding of the history, theory, and practice of yoga as outlined in Patañjali’s Yogasūtra–and a better sense of how the yoga we are doing today relates (or not) to this ancient Indian philosophy.

A new beginner course starts this week with - Wednesdays 8pm - booking via link in bio or the Yoga Point website

The police showed no urgency to make arrests yesterday in Parliament Square. This man had to wait patiently until 9:20pm to be arrested, for supporting the right for direct action against a genocide. Finally resorting to asking to be arrested next…

The 30th march in London for Palestine since October 2023. It helps so much to come and see and hear like-minded people. It helps to manage the devastating grief and hopelessness we experience. We are not alone.
