This introductory course is designed to provide the participants a step-by-step guide to learn Mysore Style Ashtanga Vinyasa Yoga. “Mysore Style” refers to the traditional way Ashtanga Vinyasa yoga is still taught in Mysore, India. The essence of this type of yoga practice is to encourage the practitioner to follow the rhythm of her and/or his breath. This style of yoga strengthens individual practice and helps students gain ownership and understanding of their personal journey with yoga.
The intention of the course is to instruct the students through the various aspects of Ashtanga Vinyasa Yoga including posture, breathing, and meditation. At first, the students will learn the elements of Surya Namaskar (Sun Salutation) forms A and B, which are the foundation of Ashtanga Vinyasa Yoga and establish the basic form and flow of the greater series of postures. From there, the students will be introduced to standing and finishing postures. The students will learn the dynamics of Vinyasa. Vinyasa is the synchronization of breath and movement. Through this conscious synchronization, one enters a meditative state while practicing Ashtanga Vinyasa Yoga.
This course is available to all levels of practitioners.
