Rav Yoga
Rabbi Heather Altman infuses Jewish wisdom, prayer and teaching into the compassion, strength and power of Forrest Yoga to create Rav Yoga. Drawing on the Hebrew connection between “rav” (rabbi-teacher) and “rov” (plenty), Rav Yoga means Yoga Rabbi as well as Abundant Yoga. Rav Yoga’s synthesis of these two ancient traditions leaves you feeling empowered, renewed, centered and connected. Lightly infused with the breath of Judaism, these classes are for adults (and teens) of all traditions, genders, health conditions, or levels of yoga experience.
