Welcome

The sincerest intention for One Hand Clapping is to empower individuals with the knowledge inherent within themselves to positively impact their lives, families and the community. This is accomplished through teaching the time-tested techniques of Yoga which provide a very precise and systematic way to discover how to turn the direction of their consciousness inward to control and coordinate the body, breath and mind. During this process, a path of self discovery and awareness emerges until the seeker reaches the ultimate truth, and, consequently, the tools necessary to end all suffering.

“Once a critical mass of this awareness occurs in the core of the individual, the outward expression of this change creates a positive direction for the community in which we live.”

The beauty of Yoga lies in the experiential knowledge and immediate results one sees as they begin this process. One does not have to experience the entire truth of Reality before witnessing major benefits to life and a shift in the way reality is viewed and, more importantly, lived. Nor does one have to forsake life’s responsibilities by devoting their entire time to realizing this truth.

“There is an incredible benefit to dedicating the time one currently has, and simply beginning the journey.”
