Dedicated to the care and cultivation of the body's natural resources and true nature,
the SFYS whole heartedly promotes and fosters the mindful techniques and integrative teachings of the 8 limbs of yoga, the healing arts, inner martial arts, movement, breathing and energization practices used to awaken and expand vitality and consciousness through the unification of physical, mental, spiritual and soulful development for a healthier strong, flexible, vibrant body, and a calmer, clearer more peaceful focused confident mind and state of well-being.
Our Philosophy
"Using your body as a metaphor as how you live your life, your body can be a reflection of your inner beauty and creativity. It is not just what you can do, but how you do it that is essential and makes the biggest difference.”
The physical aspect is about the quality of the movement and shape, instead of emphasis on attaining the goal of some incredible physical feat. It is about cultivating the 4 pillars of well being; your mind, body, heart and soul, accepting where you are in your body, and moving forward from that sense of grace, strength and ease to create a stable and resilient foundation to grow, build and expand upon the unique preciousness of you."
