Zeitgeist-The Movie(1hour 56 minutes.)
Zeitgeist was created as a not for profit expression to inspire people to start looking at the world from a more critical perspective and to understand that very often things are not what the population at large think they are.
YogaJaya aims to offer a balanced approach to yoga. YogaJaya therefore regularly invites top international teachers of different styles and backgrounds to visit and teach in Tokyo. Such workshops will be conducted primarily in English, but with Japanese interpreters. Workshop attendance is subject to availability and space, so students should make an advanced booking.
Currently scheduled workshops:

The YogaJaya TT has outsourced sections to various recognized yoga facilitators experienced in self-inquiry, self-analysis, yoga philosophy, and contemporary cross-cultural ethics.
YogaJaya believes that to become a good teacher, it is most important to study oneself and allow flexibility in welcoming change through a compassionate approach. The YogaJaya TT is set up to be an ideal platform for this transformation.

Key Topics
- In-depth Study Of Multiple Modern Hatha Yoga Traditions - Classical and Modern Yoga Philosophy/Ethics and Lifestyle - Body Movement (Techniques, Teaching, Methodology, Practical Application) - Self Inquiry - Anatomy and Physiology - Foundation principles of Ayurveda - Diet and Nutrition - Sustainable Ethics (Study of ecological and social issues which relate to the world and how to integrate our knowledge) - Yoga and Career
This workshop is about Total Hatha Yoga practice: exploring deeply the inner world through the three most important Hatha Yoga practices of Meditation, Pranayama and Asana. In this Workshop we will combine these three in detail and how they relate to one and other.
Each module will be composed of all three practices but will have an emphasis on one. Spending longer on that specific practice allows more detail to be shared and most importantly deeper experience of the effects of the practice. The workshop is designed to be progressive.
By attending all three modules the student will gain a good understanding of the relationship that these ancient practice share with each other. There will be question time at the end of each module so students are able to remember the connections between the various 'limbs' of Yoga.
