Rocket Yoga Workshop with Gil Perez

Rocket Yoga

With Gil Perez

     Rocket Yoga is dynamic and fast-paced flow of yoga.        

     Classes are guided with Sanskrit names of the asanas, following through 142 poses in 90 minutes in a typical class. The structure maintains that of Ashtanga Vinyasa, consisting of a warm up with rounds of surya namaskar, after which 66 poses continue with standing poses, seated poses and ending with the traditional closing series including mudras and śavāsana.

     Rocket Yoga allows the Ashtanga Vinyasa Yoga method to be accessible by the general populace and even those who may have structural disabilities who would otherwise not be able to practice traditional Ashtanga Vinyasa Yoga methods.

Sridaiva Yoga at Eastside Austin Elite

Sridaiva is a cutting edge postural life practice focusing on cultivating radiant health and a positive attitude. When applied to the practice of yoga, a healing harmony of both strength and flexibility maximize to yield therapeutic effects upon the body-mind.

Benefits Of Sridaiva:

Enhances overall physical/emotional health.

Strengthens and defines the muscles of the back body like the glutes, creating freedom of movement.

Embraces the natural curvature of the body by re-learning optimal posture.

Realignment of the spine (referred to as the bow-spring) encourages overall rejuvenation by bolstering the immune system, and enhancing your attitude. 

Sridaiva strengthens the body, creates balanced flexibility and tone with its innovative therapeutic approach. 

Makes physical sense yet asks us to perceive ourselves in a new light.

The style of yoga being offered at EAE is based on this methodology of Sridaiva; a uniquely therapeutic system for optimizing body-mind posture. The optimal physical posture reflects a geometric template for the torso in the shape of a bow-spring form in which the muscles of the back and the front of the torso are balanced in their tone and elongation. This universal bow shape is spring-loaded along the entire back of the body (the posterior chain of myofascia) to provide for fluid, tensile strength, precise balance, and rooted lightness in any pose or activity. In this optimal bow-spring alignment, muscles balance with the bones of the skeleton on all sides in a dynamic push-pull, so that any posture becomes a 'tensegrity' in which the body is at its maximum capacity for strength, lightness and integrated extension of the spine while applying a minimal required amount of muscular engagement. 

We'd love for you to join us to give this interesting and dynamic practice a try! These weekend classes are open to the public:
