Ancient Wisdom for Modern Life

Yoga is more than a physical practice; it is a rich tradition of inquiry into what it means to live a meaningful and awakened life.

Join Kripalu faculty member Bill Koff, certified yoga therapist and longtime student of yoga philosophy, for an engaging evening exploring the foundational ideas, stories, and literature that have shaped the yoga tradition for thousands of years. Drawing from classical texts and philosophical teachings, Bill brings ancient wisdom into conversation with modern life, revealing how these timeless teachings continue to offer guidance for navigating challenge, cultivating resilience, and deepening self-understanding.  

Whether you are curious about yoga beyond the postures or looking to deepen your personal practice, this online experience offers an accessible introduction to the philosophical heart of yoga. Through storytelling, reflection, and lively discussion, you'll discover that these teachings are not meant to remain on the page—they are invitations to be lived.

In this online program, you will discover:

  • A deeper understanding of the philosophical roots of yoga
  • Insights from classical yoga literature and timeless teachings
  • Practical ways to apply yogic wisdom in everyday life
  • A broader perspective on the evolution and purpose of yoga
