CLASS DESCRIPTIONS
MYSORE
Mysore style yoga is the traditional way to learn and practice Ashtanga Yoga. In a Mysore style room each student will bet taught the sequence one-on-one. Think of it as a private in a group environment. The Mysore Times are open on the schedule allowing for greater flexibility in your schedule. Expect to be at the studio for 30-40 minutes the first few classes. Each day you will learn more of the sequence and your practice will grow in length. It is a beautiful way to learn and perfect for beginners and any level. Each student is taught at their pace and level.
GUIDED PRIMARY
The teacher is the guide in class and will lead you through the practice count by count. The primary sequence of postures and the numbered breath associated are called out in Sanskrit. Practitioners move per instruction together as one unit. Careful attention to the pattern of breath and movement heightens the efficacy of practice; every inhale is an upward movement, and every exhale a downward movement. Our body uses a tremendous amount of energy to maintain homeostasis. In Ashtanga we try to create very smooth even movements. This creates a foundation of steadiness. Here, asana, pranayama, and dhyana begin to lay a foundation of calm evenness resting within us.
