At Heart Space Yoga, Ana Franklin teaches the art and science of Yoga in the tradition of Patanjali. True Yoga practice is, by definition, appropriate to the present circumstances of the person practicing. It is excellent for stress reduction, rejuvenation, strengthening of the whole body and calming and focusing to the mind. One can apply the eight limbs of yoga according to personal needs, or choose to work with only one or two limbs. We can use Yoga to help ourselves in many areas of our lives. Regular, frequent practice of Yoga enhances and promotes the body's natural process of healing. As we learn to use yoga's breathing methods, we improve circulation and mental awareness. This creates harmony in the entire person and allows constant healing which is the natural function of system. Movement, postures, breathing technique, chanting and other methods are all employed in a way that is appropriate for the individual. Ana's classes in the Manhattan, KS area are limited in size, so students can enjoy more personal attention. Instruction is available for all levels, including pregnancy, and post-partum, private lessons and other special needs. Ana aims to inspire as many students as possible to create their own regular Yoga practice, thereby finding harmony for themselves and becoming promoters of a happy, healthy, peaceful world. Private lessons are available in addition to regular class time, and are recommended for those with special considerations or medical conditions. Those with medical conditions are asked to check with their physician before attending classes, and to inform your instructor before taking classes. Thank you for your interest, and here's hoping we meet soon!

Ana's personal practice of yoga spans forty years, and she began teaching in 1984. She has studied under Gary Kraftsow, T.K.V. Desikachar, and Sonia Nelson. In 2006, Ana became certified as a teacher/mentor by the Krishnamacharya Healing and Yoga Foundation, www.khyf.net in Chennai, India.

Beyond this, she has studied natural and herbal healing including the Indian Science of Ayurveda and is a Certified Natural Health Consultant by Dr. Richard Schulze's School of Natural Healing in Santa Monica, CA.

Since 1998 Ana has studied and practiced Yoga Sutras and Vedic Chant with her teacher, Sonia Nelson, Director of the Vedic Chant Center, www.vedicchantcenter.org. Thanks to Sonia's excellent teaching, Ana has attained a special feeling for using the voice as a way to enhance personal integration and mental focus.

Health is more than the absence of disease. When we are healthy we are loving, kind, joyful and full of vibrant energy. The Practice of Yoga, while enhancing our vitality, also helps us to be more aware of our unconscious habits of body and mind. With this awareness of ourselves it becomes much easier to make the changes we desire in all areas of our lives.

"If the day and night are such that you greet them with joy,

And life emits a fragrance like flowers and sweet scented herbs,

Is more elastic, more starry, more immortal,

- that is your success! -

All nature is your congratulations,

and you have reason, momentarily, to Bless yourself."

Henry David Thoreau

There are certain times when private instruction could be more useful than attending a class with many others. If you have not studied with Ana, and if you are a beginning yoga student, you are advised to take a private lesson before beginning classes. If you have special considerations or would prefer not to be in a group class, a series of private lessons can be arranged. In fact, the tradition in Yoga is for each student to be taught privately so that the student can be observed and given individual attention by the teacher. The practice of yoga is very personal, and will naturally not be the same for any two people as we are individually unique. So, even for those who do not have health concerns or special considerations, I recommend that you can go further in your yoga practice with private lessons either instead of, or in addition to group classes. Call me to talk about the structure and rewards of learning privately.

Ana has made a CD for you to purchase and take Yoga Class home with you.

The CD includes an insert with figures showing each move and pose in the order which they are taught. You'll hear Ana talking you through the gentle and easy practice. All you have to do is find a quiet space and 45 free minutes, then put the CD on and follow the directions.
Cost: $15, just like one yoga class, except this is a class you can take over and over, in the comfort of your home.
