Kula - the community of the heart The yoga community is supportive and fun, respectful and knowledgable. There are innumerable threads of interconnection weaving us together. One of the most important truths of many philosophies, including yoga, is that we are one universal family. What affects a single person affects others. When a kula, or community of the heart, forms with common experiences like joy, freedom, and peace, the bond is strong.
