Online kirtans via zoom more or less fortnightly next kirtan: January 17th 7-9pm UK time Email james@jamesboagyoga.com to register Donations by paypal/bank transfer gratefully accepted. … Immersive online courses: January and February 2021: Purāṇa and practical Mythology Eight consecutive Tuesdays 7-9pm UK time January 5th to February 23rd 2021 Purāṇa - Ancient and Always New Purāṇa: the perennial teachings of yoga as encoded in myth, symbol and story. Using story, symbol and song as our platforms for inquiry, we will deepen our familiarity with the richly flavourful and highly practical supports of yogic mythology. This course will also be a kind of ‘practical bhakti’ exploration. If you like kīrtan, this will be a rare and precious opportunity to deepen understanding of the archetypes and rich symbolic energy we invoke in kīrtan. Over the eight weeks we will consider: The Divine Family and the great archetypes of Śiva as Yogīśvara, Nāṭarāja, Śambho/Śaṅkara, and as Tryambaka, of Śakti as Satī, Pārvatī and Jagadīśvarī, and their sons Gaṇeśa and Skanda. There will also be sessions on Rāmāyaṇa looking at Rāma, Sītā, Hanuman and Lakṣmana; on Kṛṣṇa, and on the Churning of the Ocean of Milk. If you are at all interested in practical yoga philosophy and enjoy the riches of storytelling, please join me on this course. Course fee: GB£184 GB£168 for those who have taken three or more courses with me in 2020 Additional donations will be put towards scholarship/assisted places. Participants receive the audio recordings after each session and sometimes additional notes and visual resources. It is also possible to attend the course on a remote basis if time zones mean you cannot join the live session, in which case you will receive the recording right after the session.

James Boag Yoga
Yoga is balance, integration, skilfulness and efficiency. Yoga practice is about cultivating sustainable harmony.
Yoga is about the whole of our lives: everything we do, all we experience. It is about stretching our understanding of who we really are, strengthening our connection to the innate wisdom of our conscience and rehabilitating our broader human capacities while working respectfully with the realities of our individual natures and our diverse responsibilities.
Yoga practice is about training ourselves to be able to find joy in the everyday wonder of life and steadiness in the face of its inevitable challenges.
It is about meeting and refining our own patterns and habits and inviting ways of being that are conducive to sustainable, integrated health and wellbeing.
James works with a range of mutually complementary lenses to explore yoga principles in practical application, including: principle-based asana, natural movement, meditation, kirtan singing and chanting, storytelling and interpretation, satsang talks, discussion and inquiry, nourishing high quality food and time outdoors.
