We offer daily classes in Vinyasa style yoga that are both challenging and spiritually uplifting. Fusing alignment principles with the breath and flow of vinyasa, we offer a safe, strong practice accessable to all levels. Committed practioners and teachers come yearly to participate in our Teacher Training
program. Not to mention enjoy the nearby beaches, warterfalls, and incredible vistas. Trainings are three-week intensives, accomodations not included. See our website for more information.
Maya Yoga Studio
Maya Yoga studio is nestled in the Honokala valley on the north shore of Maui, down a winding red dirt road. A multi-colored peace sign nailed to a tree by the side of the road is the only indication that you have arrived.
A stone statue of Ganesh, the benevolent elephant headed god, greets you at the steps leading to the studio. You climb the stairs and enter a light-filled, warm space. The early morning sun pours through the wall of windows and reflects beautifully off the cedar floor and walls. The room is breathtakingly gorgeous. Views of the Pacific Ocean and Haleakala Volcano are stunning. You have arrived at your destination — Yoga.
Classes are held six days a week, except on New and Full Moon when there are no classes, as is the practice in Mysore, India. The primary instructors are Eddie Modestini and Nicki Doane. In what has come to be regarded as unique in yoga today, Eddie and Nicki teach almost all of their classes together. They are able to attend to each student individually while still keeping the pace of the practice. They have learned this method of instruction from their teacher, Sri K. Pattabhi Jois, who has also helped them to find, through practice, the deeper life of yoga. Too often in the west, spirituality is extracted from the practice of yoga. This denies practitioners its' greatest gift — the opportunity to truly get to know ourselves. The classes at Maya Yoga strive to teach each student that yoga is about being fully present in the moment and discovering that we are truly all One.
One Love. One People. One Heart. One Destination —
Our Higher self.
Yoga is to cease the agitations and calm the fluctuations of the Mind. Yogas Chitta Vritti Nirodaha, Chapter 1, Sutra 2, Patanjali's Yoga Sutras.
