Anusara Kula Anusara (ah-new-sah-rah), means “flowing with Grace,” “going with the flow,” “following your heart”. It is a powerful hatha yoga system, founded in 1997 by John Friend, that unifies a unique and elegant system of physical alignment with an uplifting philosophy of intrinsic goodness, a “celebration of the heart.” Kula is Sanskrit for “community,” and a well-organized, dedicated and fun-loving kula is another defining characteristic of Anusara Yoga. Community has always been paramount to Julia, and the Anusara Kula is especially dear to her. Therefore, in service of the Anusara Kula, to help Anusara grow in the Greater Boston Area, this page is offered as a resource for Anusara in the region. To have reminders emailed to you about the workshops listed below, please contact Julia and ask to be put on her email list. The email list is used to announce Anusara events only, and email addresses will not be shared with anyone.
