Ashley Rowan

Ashley began yoga study in 1976 with meditation, Sivananda Yoga and Kundalini Yoga. In 1984 he began teaching, became certified in White Lotus Flow Yoga, and in 1989 studied with B.K.S. Iyengar in India.

The following year, at the invitation of the Soviet-American Dialogue, he traveled with 28 other yoga teachers (including Pir Vilayat and Guru Dev), to teach in Moscow and Leningrad.

He continues teaching at Rowan's Bodymind Holistic Center and West Seattle Yoga & Ayurveda, and loves the yin/yang approaches to yoga as he sees their unity in different body personalities and scientific principles.

Morning Classes:
Yoga and the Focus of Consciousness
Experience sacred postures (wholeness), breathing ratios, and sound through the uniqueness of who you are, and how that effortlessly streamlines with others to create a magnified effect of consciousness.
“Talking postures” allows an inner dialogue to come to your conscious mind from the intelligent history of the Bodymind. There will be movement as well as still postures that speak to you, allowing the earth and heavens to meet within.
The fertile ground of experiencing dynamic as well as easy postures prepares you for the day non-exhaustively, and allows the focus of consciousness to call within.
