“Don’t just do something, sit there”
Welcome to Full Circle Yoga. We specialize in Hatha Yoga, Gentle Somatic Yoga, ManYoga, and a growing number of classes in Yoga for Healthy Ageing. The studio is in Telkwa, northwest BC, in a heritage log home on the banks of the beautiful Bulkley River.
In the words of Zen poet, scholar and peace activist Thich Nhat Hanh:
“Our civilization is a civilization of borrowing. We have borrowed from ourselves, from our health, from the planet… It’s very important to wake up and see that what is available in the here and now is already sufficient for us to be nourished, to be happy. We don’t need to strive to get more, exploiting the planet as we do so. Our way of living our life and planning our future has led us into this situation.”
“One Buddha is not enough; we need a collective awakening. All of us have to become Buddhas for our planet to survive.”
Full Circle offers yoga education, private classes and retreats in northwestern BC. Phillipa Beck owns and operates the studio, and is partner in Northern Sky Meditation and Yoga Wilderness Retreats. She is trained in Hatha yoga, Gentle Somatic Yoga, Yoga for Anxiety and Depression, and Qi Gong.
Practice with Full Circle Yoga for conscious embodiment: connecting to yourself, and the planet.
