Bikram Yoga is named after its founder - Bikram Choudhury and consists of 26 poses that are performed in a heated room.  Each Yoga Pose is usually performed twice and held for a certain period of time.  Yoga Sessions start from Standing Postures, then the Backbends, Forward Bends, and Twists.  The poses are accompanied by Kapalabhati Breath or the "breath of fire".  Heat is used in Bikram Yoga in order to allow you to go deeper and safer into a Yoga Pose.  Each pose stretches and strengthens your muscles, joints, and ligaments and, at the same time releases toxins and work on your internal organs like the glands and the nervous system. Bikram Yoga is not about being flexible, but about strengthening your body and your spine in all directions with the goal of creating a union between the body, mind and spirit.

Qigong is a practice that teaches how to recognize and work with one’s own inner energy (life force) by collecting the external life force (chi) from nature and circulating it throughout one’s body to replenish and strengthen one’s internal human energy system.  This is done through very slow dynamic intentional movements or standing postures held for a period of time while calmly breathing.  The cultivation of chi offers valuable health nurturing benefits.  Qigong is an essential foundation to the practice of Tai Chi.

Meditation Sessions, as developed by Gailon, are an effective tool to enter an objective state of awareness, whereby the discovery of our inner nature is facilitated, as well as the nature of the mind is revealed.  Our ability to increase our level of sensitivity to our connection with life energy and consciousness is brought about, not with eyes closed and in silence, as is done in regular meditation, but with eyes open and by making contact with one another.  This truly is a way of learning how to enter consciousness and how to operate from that space, while remaining connected with others and aware of everything around and within oneself.  Group sessions with Gailon are available twice each day or can be scheduled by appointment as a private one on one.
