Our Philosophy

• Teaching Yoga beyond beliefs we help people from every walk of life cultivate deep, powerful Yogic practice connected to radical inquiry into the nature of existence.
• To teach Yogic practice grounded in rational open minded and questioning intelligence, balanced with an eternally opening heart.
• To share ancient wisdom and contemporary inquiry.
• To share the deeper purposes of practice.
• To teach the physical, emotional, meditational and developmental (spiritual) practices of Yoga relevant to each person's need, with joy and light.
• To teach Yoga and related practices for each individuals personal well-being and development and for the well-being and happiness of all beings everywhere.
• To teach Yoga intelligently, as a transformational and empowering practice.
• Yoga can rebuild your body from the inside out whilst teaching you all you need to know about the union between your physical or somatic intelligence and your emotions, and the union between these and your conscious and unconscious mind. We celebrate this.
• Strong and dynamic practice is encouraged as is appropriate for each student. Too often in the Yoga world, physical capability is seen as equivalent to development. With Radikal Freedom, physical capability is honoured as just what it is, physical capability. Students are also reminded that ‘bendiness' alone does not confer ‘spiritual' benefit, and levels of transpersonal development are not necessarily equated with flexibility and that physical capability does not necessarily make one a better human being. Development is thus recognised as an internal process that reflects the learning and awareness of the practitioner and their resting in openness, love and equanimity. The hallmarks of development are recognised as a sense of humour, kindness, awareness, generosity and openness to the flow of life.

“In Yoga we are all working in the same place, at our edge and as such we are all always beginners.”

The Deeper Reasons for Practice

• To open the heart and keep opening it.
• To cultivate vast awareness.
• To resolve one's own difficulties with problematic residual seeds (samskaras) in own's own unconscious and move into greater potential.
• From here to help others do the same.
• To connect more and more deeply to the manifold principles of intelligence, wisdom, and the principles of unobstructed compassionate energy or love and to manifest these in life.
• To awaken to the truths of consciousness and see the delicious humour, joy and purpose of our life.
