| Time: | 4:00 pm
| | Duration: | 90 minutes
| | Class type: | Jivamukti
| | Class description: | Jivamukti: "Jiva" - individual soul; "Mukti" - liberation. The word Jivamukti is derived from the Sanskrit word Jivanmuktih ("liberation while living"). Jivamukti is a yoga method established by David Life and Sharon Gannon that aspires to greater peace, unity, environmental awareness and karma consciousness. Ahimsa, one of the five tenets of Jivamukti, encourages all to avoid harm and violence; it ultimately manifests the sacred notion of oneness in all beings. A Jivamukti yoga class is a physically vigorous and intellectually stimulating practice that combines chanting, asanas, breathing exercises, music, meditation, and devotional study through simple scriptural readings.

Will
|
In 2010, Will obtained 200-hour certification to teach Universal Yoga. In January of this same year, he also became the first Advance Certified Jivamukti Yoga Teacher in East Asia. Since graduating from the 350+-hr Jivamukti Yoga teacher training at the Omega Institute in New York in 2007, Will has been passionately serving all yogis in Hong Kong and around the world.
As a practising Buddhist, Will has intense desire to serve all devotees that tread the path toward enlightenment. Ahimsa (non-violence) is Will's prime practice, deeply inspired by the relentless stance of spiritual and political activism, and most importantly compassion that are adopted by his guru Sharon Gannon and David Life. On the wisdom side, Will has been receiving great transmission on the physical and energetic practices of yoga from another of his gurus Andrey Lappa.
Paying deep reverence to all holy teachers who have inspired him so much, Will is humbly grateful to Davidji & Sharonji, Geshe Michael Roach, Lama Christie McNally, Andrey Lappa, Kristina Pao Cheng, Jessica Kung, Patrick Creelman, Stephen Thomas, Joakim Olin, DL, Icy Lee, Maggie Tan, HHK, Dharma Mittra, DPR, & Paveena Atipatha.
Will is currently based at Pure Yoga in Hong Kong but routinely tours the globe to share his knowledge. Vigorous in his style, tender in his words - Will offers a class that pushes students to their limits, freeing their hearts and ultimately stilling their minds.
