Chrisitne and IanChristie McNally

Lama Christie McNally trained in Tibetan monasteries in India and Nepal, and received extensive instruction in all the texts required for a Geshe degree, which is traditionally a 20-year course of study.

From there, she immersed herself in Yoga, and the secret teachings of Buddhism. She is one of the first Western women to be recognized as a Lama. Through her efforts, she has begun to change the face of Buddhism that has historically been predominantly male.

Ian Thorson

Ian Thorson, a native New Yorker and graduate of Stanford University, has spent the majority of his life studying with the world’s greatest masters of yoga and Buddhist philosophy.

Stepping into the spotlight now and becoming a teacher in his own right, Ian has co-authored Two as One, revealing for the first time ancient Tibetan asana practices for reaching spiritual goals using a partner. He and Lama Christie continue to teach their unique two-people-one-mat yoga throughout the world.

Beginning December 2010, Ian will join Lama Christie McNally in the three-year retreat.

Yantra - A Yoga and Kirtan Journey



Saturday, September 25
7:30 - 9:30 pm
@ College Street

$30 in advance
$35 at the door

An integrated experience of yoga and meditation through sound, this event provides a holistic experience of yoga -
to unite body, mind and spirit through movement and music.

With a focus on the breath, we begin with a sequence of traditional yoga postures to prepare the body and mind for stillness. Our heart opening practice is facilitated by Karishma and energized by live rhythms of tabla, harmonium and soaring vocals.

This is followed by an exploration of meditation through chanting, or bhakti yoga, the yoga of devotion led by the luminous spirit of Tanya.

Our experience concludes with a sharing of chai infused with warming spices to ground us after our journey.
