Description:
Self practice with an Instructor assisting you. This class is taught as Ashtanga Yoga is taught in India, you are not cued through the class, you do your yoga practice while an instructor is present to assist you. Students practice the Ashtanga sequence of postures to their own ability and at their own pace. The teacher assists each student individually by giving physical adjustments and verbal instructions. This is the best class to get individual attention during a class setting, it is the preferred form of practice!
Note from the teacher:
I am here to help. If you get lost or confused about the correct sequence of postures, please let me know. I am only too happy to help, no matter how many times you need to ask. If you are new or accustomed to led classes, the Mysore-style setting can seem strange at first. But with commitment and a little patience, you will be amazed at how quickly you can learn the ashtanga sequence.
Regarding Diagrams:
If you have a diagram of the Ashtanga yoga postures, I encourage you to review and study the postures, but please do not bring the diagram to class. Over time, you will memorize the sequence.
if you have questions about whether or not this class is right for you please feel free to contact me.
