Black Lotus Yoga is the latest blossom of the modern vinyasa tradition, created by Ty landrum. A potent practice of breath and movement that opens the inner channels of the body and invites the creative sap to flow. Rooted in Hatha principles, the practice works with the natural movements of the breath to quicken the vital forces of the body and to open the entire organism to the spontaneous overflowing of life. The point is not simply to exhilarate, but to make space for the creative power to blossom, to open its lotus petals and spread them upward into the light. There are seven sequences in the Black Lotus system, arranged in progressive order of difficulty. Each sequence has its own unique signature, but all follow the same arc—they raise the vital force through the center of the body, in one graceful movement that reaches from earth to sky. This movement is the backbone of traditional Hatha Yoga, and the Black Lotus method revives it, straightens it, and gives it new life.
