About WE ARE ONE: yoga community
Welcome to WE ARE ONE: yoga community, a non-profit yoga studio in Gaithersburg, MD. Our goal is to build a community of kindred spirits engaged in the study and practice of yoga and wellness, regardless of ability to pay. We approach this study in a light-hearted, yet genuine way in a safe and welcoming environment. We offer group and individual instruction in many mind/body/spirit disciplines such as yoga, meditation, tai chi and qigong. Class fees paid by members make it possible for us to reach and teach underserved populations in our studio. It is our desire to expand our reach into the community at large by teaching on-site in medical clinics, homeless shelters, schools, etc.
Our philosophy is simple. Life is a journey, undertaken without a map. There are countless paths and "expert" guides, all competing for the attention of the traveler. At WE ARE ONE, we believe that the true expert lies within each individual, that the traveler is really an explorer, and that the journey is in the service of the soul. We have found, in our own soul journeys, a number of fascinating paths that have facilitated our personal evolution. We offer ourselves as guides on those particular paths, humbly acknowledging that every individual who accompanies us along any path is an expert in his or her own right. Each soul journey is sacred and we are honored when we are included along the way.
Our approach to Yoga involves the practice of postures, breathing techniques, meditation, introduction to chakras (the subtle energy system of the body) and a joyful, non-dogmatic exploration of Spirit, as one of the great mysteries of life. Other classes and workshops explore similar concepts, in different ways. Please refer to the "Class Descriptions" and "Teachers" sections of the website, for more detailed information.
We hope you'll join us!
