Infinite Bliss Yoga, in Louisville’s Highlands neighborhood,
celebrated its ninth anniversary on February 4, 2011.
At Infinite Bliss, the focus is on the kula,
Sanskrit for 'community of the heart.' The kula is the community
of your choice, your own magnetic qualities, and the way you
feel at home with the company you keep. It is at the same
time all the ways that you keep company with your self. Your
access to the kula of you and the outside kula make life rich,
meaningful, and infinitely blissful.
While there are many types of yoga these
days, all of our classes fall under the umbrella term, Hatha
(postures and breathing). While our teachers may incorporate
many influences from their years of practice, all of our teachers
have had at least some influence and training in the Anusara®
style.
Denise Stottmann and Laura Patterson
are licensed as Anusara-Inspired Teachers.
Inspired status represents a high level of excellence in teaching.
founded by John Friend, is a unique approach to hatha
yoga where the spirit of the HEART powerfully blends with
the precision of biomechanical ALIGNMENT and balanced energetic
ACTION in the performance of asanas (yoga postures).
The word "anusara" originates from a line in the
Tantric text called the Kularnava Tantra, "shaktipata-anusarena
shishyonugraham arhati", which means: by entering the
current of Divine Shakti's descent into the heart, the true
disciple becomes capable of receiving grace. Anusara literally
means to be in the flow. It is the current of the Divine,
to flow with Grace. The philosophical basis of Anusara, as
elucidated by Dr. Douglas Brooks, is called Rajanaka Yoga.
Infinite Bliss is a Registered Yoga School through the
Yoga Alliance. All graduates from our Teacher Training are

Alliance's national Yoga Teacher Registry. The Registry is
not itself a certification program; rather it is a listing

the integrity of Yoga, maintaining voluntary national standards
for Yoga teachers, and providing support for Yoga professionals

Here’s what Yoga Journal said about Infinite
Bliss in their Yoga Tour column:
Infinite Bliss Yoga crouches behind a busy burrito joint
on Bardstown Road, Louisville's Haight-Ashbury, lined with
coffee shops, used book and natural food stores, and tattoo
parlors. When studio owner Dara Myers first stumbled on the
locale, it was a dark, dank video arcade. Her vision and lots
of elbow grease have transformed the hovel into a sacred space
warmed by peach walls and natural light from the huge bay
windows.
