What is red lila?

Rooted play.

The first chakra, Muladhara is represented by the color red. It is our rooted seat, of our sense of place, security and stability. It reminds us to stay grounded and centered in mind, body and spirit.
lila, or divine play, is the creative energy of the universe that represents something bigger always at hand. It is the result of feeling spacious and flexible in the body and the mind that each breath carries ease and joy. It reminds us to dance in the estatic flow of life.

red lila School of Yoga is the harmonious coupling of security and creativity, power and grace, alignment and flow, yin and yang, flexibility and strength, roots and wings, rest and play. The beauty of life is experienced through balance.
