What does the name mean?
Uttara (oo-ta-ra) (Sanskrit); other; crossing over.
Yoga (yo-gah) (Sanskrit); union; to yoke; integration
Most people experience “union” or are “yoked” to their jobs, families, responsibilities, communities, possessions. At Uttara Yoga Studio, discover the joy of union with the “other” – yourself.
