EEY Philosophy
East Eleven Yoga's approach to teaching is a blended one based on the philosophies of...
-
ashtanga (8-fold path of yoga)
-
kaizen (continual & gradual improvement)
-
kintsugi (embracing imperfection & highlighting the beauty in repair)
-
stoicism (control what we can, accept what we cannot)
The studio places a very high value on the teacher-student relationship, and every teacher at EEY cares deeply about the personal development and growth of each student that passes through its door. EEY envisions that your training on the mat here will improve and help you better navigate your everyday life.
