Tuesdays 12pm (PST) Online Dharma Talk with Gabriel Halpern
A dharma talk is a philosophical exposition by a veteran Yoga teacher explaining how wisdom helps one face life. After 50 years of continuous study and practice, Gabriel articulates the theory behind why practice is essential to the direct experience of clarity and peace of mind.

Yoga has become limp. If we reduce its vastness to a mere physical practice we lose its luster and its more profound depths become obscured. A much more luxuriant version is available when we study and practice with fire in the belly. We can transform ourselves with diligent application of the wisdom being offered. These 12 discourses will review the dharma base of yoga philosophy and its relevance to contemporary life.  Come learn how to take the ancient teachings and domesticate those intuitions into one’s life and historical moment.

Gabriel Halpern holds a BA in Philosophy, an MA in Health Psychology, and was trained at the Iyengar Yoga Institutes in San Francisco and Pune, India. Gabriel has practiced since 1970 and gives workshops nationally. He founded and directed the Yoga Circle in Chicago, IL from 1985 until 2018. For over twenty years he was a core performance faculty member at De Paul University’s Theater Department. In 2011, he was awarded the Elder/Mentor of the Year by the Mankind Project. Owing to the direct influence of BKS Iyengar and over 50 years of continuous study Gabriel’s teaching is all that is yoga: zeal in practice, science, art form, lifestyle, and mystical mentoring. At 72, he has finally turned into the ritual elder he has been seeking his whole life.
