Breathe and Move Together
Come practice Ashtanga Yoga in the desert.
What is Ashtanga Yoga?
When practicing Ashtanga Yoga in the Mysore Style you will learn a set sequence of postures at your own pace, with individual guidance from a teacher in a quiet, group setting. Unlike guided classes, Mysore Style allows students to move through the practice independently, receiving hands-on assistance and personalized instruction based on their level. If you don’t know the sequence, don’t worry we’ll teach you!
Guided Ashtanga classes are led by a teacher and follow the traditional counted Ashtanga Yoga Primary Series sequence of poses. Students practice the series in unison as a group. Guided Ashtanga classes are a great way to learn the series. Props, modifications and alternatives offered.
Intro to Ashtanga Yoga is a class for all levels. The class is taught in a semi-guided manner based on the students’ levels. Students brand new to Ashtanga Yoga to students practicing Intermediate and Advanced series are welcome. Modifications and alternatives are always taught according to individual student’s needs.
