First Eco-friendly Yoga School In The Region

FRIDAY, 26 FEBRUARY 2010


Passage to Yoga, the only eco-friendly yoga school in metropolitan Detroit, will open on Monday, March 1 with its first morning class at 9:45 a.m. The announcement was made by director Matthew Darling.

Passage to Yoga offers an opportunity to experience authentic yoga while also honoring the individual needs of the students. Open to yoga beginners and aficionados of all ages, the studio itself provides a distinctive, personal, all natural and eco-friendly setting. It features no-VOC paints, sustainable bamboo flooring, energy-efficient lighting, recycled building and design materials, soy-based carpeting, low-flow water fixtures, air filtration system, natural lighting via skylights and a compact recycling station.

“Passage to Yoga reflects my mission to unify the experience of yoga with the awareness of our environment and its needs,” said Matthew Darling, director of Passage to Yoga. “Yoga is meant to still the mind and gain control of the sensory organs, allowing the body, mind and nervous system to become strong and steady. It is my priority to bring this ancient, time-tested practice to the studio to meet and transform today’s modern challenges.”

“Our staff of trained instructors will teach individual and group classes designed to meet the needs of all students, regardless of age, physical condition and physical or spiritual goals,” adds manager Danielle Fitzgerald.

Darling is the only authorized teacher in the entire Midwest to teach the Ashtanga method taught by the revered master Sri K. Pattabhi Jois and his grandson Sharath Rangaswamy in India.

Passage to Yoga is a member of the Green Yoga Association, which fosters a connection between ecology and yoga.

Located at 29378 Northwestern Highway in Southfield, Michigan, Passage to Yoga is the only green yoga school in metropolitan Detroit. For more information, please call 248-223-9594.
