Advanced SATYA: Regulating Blood Pressure, Regulating the Heart | Online Immersion
The heart beats over 2.5 billion times over the course of a lifetime. At the same time, blood pressure always fluctuates during the course of a day. Yogis make it a point to regulate blood pressure through breathing techniques, postural yoga, diet and meditation.
In this series of classes we attend to the rise and fall of blood throughout our practice. How does blood pressure change through the course of a day? What is your signature blood pressure? In practice, we track changes in the viscosity of blood through vasodilation and vasoconstriction in the peripheral arteries, veins and capillaries. Generally, as vascular resistance regulates, pressure is taken off the heart and people live longer.
We practice SATYA sequences to help regulate cardio-vascular rhythm, at times quickening blood pressure and at other times slowing it down. In this series of continuing education SATYA classes, there will also be time for general questions and review related to SATYA teaching and practice.

Meet the Teacher
A gifted orator, Tias brings metaphor and imagination to his classes. He weaves together poetic language, embodied wisdom and subtle body awareness in all his classes.
Tias synthesizes years of study in classical yoga, Sanskrit, Buddhist studies, somatic practices and anatomy in his dynamic and original style. He began studying Iyengar Yoga in 1984 and lived in Mysore, India in 1989 studying Ashtanga Vinyasa Yoga with Pattabhi Jois. His teaching includes precision of alignment, anatomical detail and meditative awareness. He is the founder of SATYA, Somatic Awareness Training for Yoga, a somatic practice that complements yoga.
Tias is a long time student of the meditative arts and Buddhist studies beginning with Vipassana and continuing in Tibetan Buddhism and Zen. Tias earned a Master’s degree in Eastern Philosophy from St. John’s College in Santa Fe. Tias Little makes his home under the big skies of Santa Fe New Mexico where he co-directs Prajna Yoga with his wife Surya.
Tias is the author of five books, The Thread of Breath, Meditations on a Dewdrop, Yoga of the Subtle Body, The Practice is the Path (Shambhala Publications), and In the Space Between: The Poetry of Embodiment.
