Yoga was outsider dharma. For thousands of years, yogis were strange, ominous folk to be avoided. They slept in the woods – or cemeteries. They made bizarre bargains with obscure deities. They received voices from Beyond. They studied animals and mimicked their fierce bestial wisdom. These untamed and crucial aspects have been forgotten.
The shadowy side of yoga life has been outshined by a very recent bright surface. Now we associate yoga with sultry movements, glowing skin, face creams and gorgeous luxury retreat wear. It’s some kind of miracle! Something that came from such an otherworldly place has now become the poster child for polished normalcy and success in current capitalism.
Everyone has the freedom to live and practice as they wish. But Dylan craves something more than the yoga norm — the freedom to be wild, untamed, and unbound. He wants to explore wildernesses both within and without. Through his experiences in Africa’s wild places over the past few years, Dylan has found it vital to rekindle that primal connection.
This night brings us together to hang with Dylan, check out some of his Africa photos, hear captivating travel stories, delve into the art of tracking, and learn about the African Yoga Safari. Hopefully, we’ll also find time to dance a little!

Of course, Ashtanga Yoga is a lifelong journey, a practice meant to be explored and refined over many years, even lifetimes! Then you really catch the details.
However, many of us are multi-tasking quite a bit in this lifetime. So whether you are a dedicated practitioner, a dabbler or just curious, Dylan will explore what is at the core of the practice – the Ashtanga Spirit.
Keeping all the foundational aspects in place, we’ll focus on breath, bandha and movement. But instead of striving for absolute perfection in any posture, we’ll explore how it feels to journey through Surya Namaskaras, Standing Postures and then into Backbending and even some Hand Balance before finishing. After our condensed asana practice, Dylan is available for all your questions and to share stories. It shall be a delightful journey into the Heart of Ashtanga.
