Created by native Austinite Keith Kachtick while teaching meditation in New York City prisons in the nineties, Dharma Yoga blends classical Indian yoga with Zen and Buddhist meditations. Classes range from vigorous vinyasa flow to relaxing end-of-day gentle candlelit nightcaps. Since 2005, our celebrated Teacher Trainings have certified hundreds of Dharma Yoga instructors who now guide others throughout Austin, as well as nationally and internationally.
Dharma Yoga is a fun, challenging, and potentially life-transforming yoga workout for both body and heart. We promise good music, good vibes, and guidance from teachers who will remember your name and customize their classes to best help you deepen your practice.
