LOVE AND ALL IS COMING!
Love And All Is Coming (LAAIC) is an international community and school founded by Talia Sutra. It offers yoga education courses, workshops and teacher trainings both in person and online. The school is built upon the eternal teachings of Sanātana Dharma with ahiṃsā (non-harm) acting as a definitive corner stone.
We believe that a sincere commitment to a life of ahiṃsā keeps practitioners on a direct path to mokṣa— inner liberation from Self Ignorance. As such, all of our work, in Haṭha Yoga and beyond, stems from this foundational, practical and definitively loving principle.
LAAIC aims to offer teachings from their source in simple, rational and useful ways that can be understood and implemented by all types of students.
We are committed to helping students unveil their own natural faith, intelligence and devotion through sincere yogic practices. We have seen thousands of lives transformed through the mind-purifying effects of bhakti– devotion, karma-selfless action, jñāna– Self knowledge, and haṭha– effort. Through theses modalities, many life changing, inner treasures are revealed, including viveka– discernment and vairāgya, non identification which are paramount in lifelong sādhana– spiritual practice.
The Haṭha Yoga (physical yogic practices) taught in LAAIC trainings emphasize inner stillness and one-pointed focus and are drawn primarily from the Biṣṇu Ghoṣ lineage. Dynamic vinyāsa aspects of practice are drawn from the Aṣṭāṅga Vinyāsa Yoga system. We aim to teach Haṭha Yoga as a devotional practice. All LAAIC Haṭha Yoga classes include philosophical teachings, mantra recitation, prāṇāyāma- breath awareness and breathing exercises, meditation techniques, bandha, mudrā, dṛṣṭi and kriyā teachings, āsana– yogic postures and relaxation techniques. We are committed to spreading yoga in its full, eight-limbed spectrum.
The school interprets all practices as well as yoga philosophy through the lens Advaita Vedānta, non-duality: a recognition of the timeless, formless One in all manifested reality.
About Talia Sutra:
Talia Peretz was born by the beautiful Sea of Galilee in Tiberius, Israel on February 19th 1988 to a kind, loving and spiritual Mizrahi-Jewish family. She was fascinated by her family’s devotional traditions- such as daily prayer, the recitation of the Book of Psalms and the practices of fasts from food and talk. She had endless philosophical conversations with her (luckily- very willing) parents and with many rabbis of different traditions from a very young age. She was also introduced to Yogic practices at age six by her mother, who integrated yoga into her life after being diagnosed with lymphoma (which she beat!). Talia moved to the United States right before starting the fifth grade. She lived in New York City until the age of 27 and still feels a New Yorker at heart. At age eleven, Talia of her own accord stopped eating animals and this decision shaped her ethical and spiritual development since.
With training in physical disciplines spanning nearly three decades, she has learned impeccable skill, precision and technique from masters of many practices and lineages. She started teaching aged 21 at Yoga to the People in NYC, where she had the pleasure reaching thousands of people weekly, right from the start. Talia intuitively gave herself the name Sutra as a kind of “self initiation” at the age of 22, at the start of her yoga teaching journey. The name Sutra now acts as a reminder to remain clear, concise and true in her words and actions.
Her haṭha yoga teachings are mostly based upon the Ghoṣ lineage, which she has been studying and teaching consistently for 15 years. Equally, Talia teaches from her own insight and knowing and has developed her own methods in the fields of backbending, inversions, mental and physical flexibility and bandha application which she has shared with thousands of her students worldwide.
Talia founded the yoga school Love and And All is Coming in 2018 after coining the phrase and popularizing it for nearly a decade prior to her half a million followers on social media. She is very grateful to teach people of all ages and backgrounds haṭha yoga, yoga philosophy, meditation, mantra and non-dual philosophy. She currently lives in Lisbon, Portugal with her husband, artist Ezra Baderman and their two children Akiva and Elisheva. She practices, studies and teaches daily. She is eternally grateful to all her teachers over the years.
