An Indian Catholic priest, Father Joe Pereira is renowned for his work using yoga to treat people in recovery from addiction and HIV/AIDS throughout India. He attributes his inspiration to Mother Teresa and B. K. S. Iyengar, who he studied directly with for 46 years. He has just celebrated his 80th birthday and his message of love and compassion is as timely and resonant as ever.
After a three-year gap, Father Joe is visiting Australia once again. We’re delighted to be hosting him at Yarraville Yoga over the weekend of November 18-20. On Friday evening there’ll be a talk and supper. (6:30-8:00 pm. Bring a plate, suggested $10 donation). Morning sessions on Saturday and Sunday will explore asana work, the afternoon sessions will be more restorative/pranayama.
Registrations essential.
