Description: Tefilla Yoga is a different kind of service! Rabbi Heather Altman translates the siddur (Jewish prayerbook) into a physical sequence that stimulates an inner integration of body wisdom and spiritual presence. Tefilla Yoga is a prayer experience guided by yoga postures that match the theme and key words of traditional Jewish prayers. Through the language of movement, participants feel the essence of prayers in their breath and body. Enhancing the traditional prayer experience and strengthening the body, Tefilla Yoga is appropriate for people with all levels of yoga or Jewish prayer experience. Download the PDF
