Into the Depths
an immersion like no other
begins fall 2023
TALK SERIES
Spiritual expats, philosophical refugees, somatic explorers, and prospectors of the subtle body, you are formally invited to a rough but inspired mishandling of crucial philosophical themes, sure to be of enduring interest to the irrepressible part of you that seeks.
Expect to be roused, incited and duly provoked to rediscover the promise of Hatha Yoga, by listening more deeply to the wild intelligence of your heart.
As a prelude for Into the Depths, this series is designed to give you a taste of that magical program.
a note from your guide...
This program has exceeded all of my expectations. The level of engagement, the devotion of the community, the scope of transformation among the participants, all of this has been astonishing. A sure sign of the success of the program is that most current students want to continue, want to take another pass through the wilderness of the soul with the support of our community. And like the experience of yoga, the second pass will be unprecedented, different, refreshing and new.
So I am thrilled to announce the second iteration of Into the Depths, my experimental yearlong immersion into the reflective and contemplative side of yogic practice and philosophy. There are no requisites here, no exams, no accreditations, but something finer and more profound—an invitation to dive deep into the inner tradition of yoga with an amazing community of sincere seekers from around the world, who are ready to embrace the confusion, the heartache, and also the sublime wonder of being alive. If this pulls on the strings of your heart, you are absolutely welcome to join.
Over the next couple of months, I will be giving a series of philosophical talks designed to prime you for the course, and answer any questions that you might have about its content and purpose. The talks are all free, and you can enroll for them here.
warmly,
Ty
Meet Your Guide
Ty Landrum learned yoga from pain and heartache, loss and confusion, old books, lost tapes, full moons, long bouts of silence, cold winds, simplicity, forgiveness, surrender, and the caring words of a few good friends.
He draws inspiration from children, saffron, sage, carob, almonds, chocolate, wise women, gnarled old men, olive trees, deep rivers, steep mountains, quaking aspen, honeybees, love songs, sunrises, laughter and deep breath.
Ty has an unwavering love for this unique somatic discipline, which he began practicing back in 2005. Drawing on his formal background in philosophy (PhD University of Virginia), Ty has an unusual power for illuminating the internal dynamics of yoga. He sees yoga as conscious participation in archetypal patterns of human development, which he is ever drawn to explore.
Many inspiring people taught Ty about yoga, but the deepest and most lasting imprints have been made by Jennifer Eliot (his first teacher), David Garrigues (his second), Mary Taylor and Richard Freeman (his most recent), to all of whom he is forever grateful. These teachers all did something remarkable, which is to disappear, and allow the spirit of yoga to stand forth from within.
Ty now shares his love of yoga in studios and retreat centers around the world. His passion is to share the brilliance of yoga with anyone who wants to learn.
