Shambhava School of Yoga - Midland, Texas

Shambhava Center

The word "yoga" translates from Sanskrit to mean "union of spirit, mind and body." While in the west, yoga is often considered merely a form of physical exercise, it actually encompasses much more.

After years of pursuing life at a frantic pace to acquire as much as possible, there is a nagging awareness that we need more, but more of what is unclear. In conversations with my clients and other friends, I have come to believe that what we are looking for is spirituality.

The Shambhava School of Yoga - Midland, Texas, is a meditation center that works in conjunction with my yoga classes. It is open to everyone who wishes to find that spirituality within them. People of all religious beliefs are welcome.

In the introduction to Spontaneous Recognition, Faith Stone writes:

Without denying our inherently pure nature, there is the recognition that due to obscurations ... we are unable to live in the pure state. For this reason, we use the methods of the great sages, seers, and enlightened beings throughout history, especially mantra repetition,... cultivation of love and devotion for God,... and meditation.

Sri Shambhavananda Yogi, my teacher in this practice says:

Spiritual work generates the energy and the discipline to literally burn up the things that bind you here. It doesn’t mean that you have to reject things. It means that you have to generate enough energy to transcend them.

Join us to learn what has been missing in your frantic life.

Come - explore your heart.

Shambhava Center

Yoga, Meditation and More!

Every Sunday morning--
10:00-10:50--join us to chant the Guru Gita, a song to the teacher within.   
11:00-12:00--mantra and meditation. 

You are welcome to come to one or both sessions.

Every Sunday afternoon--4:00-5:00, we hold a study group to listen to educational spiritual teachers on CD or to discuss books read for the purpose of group discussion.  Currently, we are listening to a series of CD's of recorded talks and classes given by Swami Rudrananda ("Rudi"), an American yogi from New York City.

Every Sunday evening--5:00-6:00, come express yourself through chant and music!  Musical ability is not required!  We provide simple instruments--or bring your own!  Time includes meditation for about 20 minutes.

Last Saturday of each month--3:00-5:00, you are welcome you enjoy a "long sit" meditation during which we sit for awhile, break for silent walking meditation and then sit some more.  Very quieting and insightful.

Following each yoga class, there is an optional meditation time.  You may come for meditation even if you can't make it in time for yoga!

All gatherings above are free of charge.

Donations are Welcome!


Yoga Classes--$10/class.  Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday at 6:30-7:30; and Saturday at 1:30-2:30.
