Many streams, one river...

Throughout history sages and yogis have sought beyond the horizons of culture, religion, and social constructs to discover the underlying principles governing life and the flowering of the human being. The cultures along the Himalayas have provided a unique haven for such seekers, allowing for physiological and spiritual exploration, innovation and development to continue uninterrupted for nearly 10,000 years... 

What is Triloka?

 Triloka yoga is a revolutionary new model of unifying, practicing, and teaching the
diverse yogas of Asia.  Founded by Gideon and Ana Enz, Triloka is set up to meet the demand for high standards and deep work within Asia's varying traditions of physical, energetic, and spiritual training.  Simple yet profoundly genuine, Triloka offers the experience of drinking from the Indian, Tibetan, and Chinese lineages of yoga, healing, and transformation in an open and non-sectarian environment.

Why Triloka?

 Ancient wisdom and modern science both confirm that human beings ordinarily use only a fraction of their true potential.  Each Himalayan work system develops a different aspect of that innate untapped capacity, and for centuries the secrets and principles of each system have been a closely guarded secret passed only from master to disciple.  The aim of Triloka is to cut through the barriers of spiritual and cultural elitism and make these ancient training methods thoroughly available to anyone willing to learn them and put them into practice.
    Founders Gideon and Ana Enz have had the privilege of studying with masters of various Asian traditions and have been thoroughly trained in the higher echelons of each of these traditions. They make Triloka unique with their ability to recognize and teach the common principles as well as the "secret teachings" of seemingly varied traditions in a clear, unifying, and easily implemented manner.

		Medical qigong is closely linked with the practices of acupuncture and herbology, and it is commonly used as an adjunct to Western medicine both in China and abroad. Practitioners of medical qigong first train to enhance their own life force energy (qi), later learning to sense and directly influence the qi of another person to bring about a state of health and vitality.      Triloka's carefully designed training modules ensure that graduates have the ability to create a personal and professional practice based on the solid foundation of Chinese medicine. In addition to their diploma from Triloka, graduates of the 200 hour and 500 hour curriculums qualify for certification with the NQA (National Qigong Association).		One of the world's most ancient systems of self-development, yoga uses postures, breathing, and meditation to dissolve stress, heal common illnesses, and lighten the spirit. The simple non-sectarian practices of yoga have gained global accolades for their accessibility and efficacy.    Triloka yoga educates individuals beyond the performance of postures, training them to utilize the breath and mind in exercises that unlock and harmonize latent human faculties. Covering a wide range of practices and styles, the Triloka yoga training curriculum meets and exceeds the 200 and 500 hour teacher training standards set by the Yoga Alliance.   Triloka offers CEU's for yoga teachers		Taiji quan (also known as tai chi) is simultaneously one of the softest and most powerful of all martial arts.   Emphasizing internal principles learned by performing a slow "solo" form, taiji has become popular in the western world for its convenience and for its numerous health benefits, such as increased strength, muscle tone, balance, and relaxation.   In the Triloka training system, taiji is taught as a martial art as well as vehicle for learning principles of integrated movement.  The curriculum first covers a Yang style solo form, then progresses through two person sets, martial applications, and internal training.   After 200 hours, students will have the opportunity to apply for shifu (master instructor) training.
