I had to stop offering Sangha during the Pandemic and now it has morphed into a group practice more situated in the yogic worldview
It is similar in terms of intimacy with self and community but with more pranayama, meditation, and asana. and we still have singing and soup!
Staying for soup is optional, the practice formally ends at noon.

Satsang literally means "Gathering of Truth"
