Back to India

In case you haven't heard, we're in the midst of some significant changes at tapas for the time being. While we return to Mysore, India for continued study with R. Sharath, tapas will operate on a reduced class schedule.

As of February 3rd: Tuesday and Thursday 6p Mysore classes are meeting, as will Sunday's 11am Primary Series. All other classes have been suspended until mid-April. Our reluctance to suspend classes is superceded only by our conviction that everyone needs a teacher, teachers especially. We are off to see ours.

Tapas Yoga Shala: Ashtanga Yoga Davenport
   
Welcome to tapas yoga shala!

We are proud to be the premiere yoga studio for the Quad Cities and surrounding area. Sharing space and vision with our sister school, the Davenport School of Yoga (DSY), we specialize in a powerful, dynamic and flowing form, called Ashtanga Vinyasa, the perfect counterpoint and complement to the measured precision and pace of the Hatha form practiced at DSY.

We subscribe to the idea that yoga was born of, has always been, and remains today a contemplative practice; for some, it is even a way of life. The explosive development of the physical practice of asana (“posture”), even at its most challenging and breathtaking, adds to, rather than subtracts from, this original, contemplative depth.

In imagery, iconography and language, yoga is culturally Eastern, specifically Indian, but its essence is universal, resonant, and ultimately rooted in experience rather than concept, thought, or intellectual definition. In this way it transcends all apparent boundaries and distinctions, and yet remains as intimate and personal as the breath. We are committed to uncovering and sharing the remarkable physical potential and piercing insight and awareness available through this practice.
