⭐️ MA Yoga Studies
Graduate Colloquium 2026⭐️

The yantra of Bhuvaneśvarī draws the gaze inward — from earth through water, fire, and air — until it dissolves into a single point of pure space. Graduate study works the same way.

⭐️ Our Spring 2026 graduates have completed their journey to the bindu. Join us as they share their thesis research — the culmination of their LMU Yoga Studies path — and are celebrated and sent off by faculty, peers, and loved ones.

📅 May 13 & 14, 2026 · 3:00–5:30 PM
