The Ashtanga Yoga Primary Series is a traditional sequence of postures that was developed in South India. The class is led through with both Sanskrit and English counts to mark off the timing of vinyasa movements and breath. Expect to sweat and be challenged by the pace and progression of postures. Familiarity with Vinyasa or other Flow Styles of yoga is helpful in this class.

Move into advanced postures by injecting the mystical into the physical. Ancient yogis understood that the body comes into the alchemy of movement when instilled with intention, purpose, and connection. Postures are skillfully introduced and sequenced with increasing intensity, infused with non-dogmatic Yoga philosophy, suggestions from one’s own voice as revealed in the chanting of ancient mantras, as well as the all-elusive sound of one’s own breath. Variations to optional advanced poses are offered so practitioners can work at their own level, moving through arm balances, deep hip openers, twists, chest expanding backbends and inversions.
