Ashtanga
Ashtanga yoga Is a traditional set of sequenced postures which was taught to the western world by Sri Krishna Pattabhi Jois since 1927. Since Pattabhi’s passing, Sharath Rangaswamy now teaches the sequence in Mysore India continuing the ashtanga lineage and tradition.
The practice flows from one posture to another in a vinyasa (dynamic) style incorporating flexibility, strength & corrective yoga strategies. It generates heat and energy within the body allowing the student to progressively deepen their practice whilst developing self observation and cultivating a non-judgemental attitude. This practice focuses on the breath, which is the central technique by which the mind is observed and controlled.
The sequence has 6 stages, the first aims to realign the body anatomically. Ashtanga is practiced traditionally as a mysore sequence, however I teach it as a led practice providing instruction, and mysore (self practice - moving in time with your own breath ratio with adjustment and supervision).
