The style of yoga we share at Sacred Paths Yoga is a mindful vinyasa flow based practice that allows one to find connection and embark upon an insightful journey within. We link breath and movement to emphasize meditation and to find stillness in motion. This practice become a sacred prayer to our body, to access the stillness of the mind and to connect with spirit. The experience is deeply intentional as we honor yogic philosophy and invite our soul to look inward and find peace with what is present. Our sequence is rooted in traditional Hatha and Ashtanga Vinyasa practices but has evolved to meet the needs of the modern yogi. We offer a holistic and well rounded approach, balancing the Yin and Yang, the passive and active, the lunar and solar, the feminine and masculine energies to leave one feeling centered and harmonious. Not only does this practice offer physical benefits, but it works on the energetic and spiritual forms as well, tapping into the wisdom of ancient yogic teachings while connecting to Earth Medicine and exploring the Elements as a path to transformation and Union with all that is.

Lake Atitlan, Guatemala - 200 Hour Yoga Teacher Training
March 5 - 25 2019

Sacred Paths Yoga
facilitated by Lacey and Darin Lehman
Lake Atitlán in Guatemala is believed by the Maya to be the center of the universe where God’s seeds of mankind evolved. This large endorheic lake (one that does not flow to the sea) is the deepest lake in Central America. The lake’s landscape features three volcanoes which offer spectacular views directly across the lake. The largest, Volcán Atitlán, is the only one of the three believed to still be active, though its last eruption occurred in 1853. Most of the year, the volcanoes are clearly visible in their supreme grandeur. The deep caldera walls of the lake create a powerful inverse vortex to the volcanic mountains and ridges above, creating tremendous beauty.At an altitude of 5,000 feet in the Guatemalan highlands, the climate has been referred to as the “land of eternal spring.” the time between November and April brings brilliant sunsets, sunshine and dry days and nights. The climate — combined with the grandeur of the lake, the views of the volcanoes and the lush vegetation — sets the stage for what visitors have described as a true paradise. The sheer quantity of exotic flowers, trees and plant species is further enhanced by the abundance of bird life affording excellent first hand opportunities for bird watchers and naturalist alike.
This is the perfect place to open and relax our minds, remember the wisdom of our ancestors, and ignite our hearts in the middle of nature. By living a simple and intentional existence, we experience rest, revitalization and growth of the individual in harmony with the environment. It is our sincere desire that your experience in this natural refuge will enhance your lives as much as it has ours.
