Vinyasa: Breathing Moving System 

The vinyasa system provides the defining structure for the Ashtanga practice. David and Jelena will provide an overview of the goal of Ashtanga and the vinyasa meditation, and also show you 5 transformational techniques to help you work on deepening the vinyasa in your practice.

 3:30p.m. - 5:30p.m.

Ashtanga Fundamentals 

The work of physical precision is embodied focus. In Ashtanga, the focus we create in asana and vinyasa leads us deeper into states of flow and meditation. This workshop will help you sharpen your focus by defining the coordinates and alignment conditions of Ashtanga’s opening sequence of Fundamental Postures.

• Sunday Sept 25 / 12 p.m. - 12:45 p.m.

Pranayama & Meditation Description: David will begin the session by leading you through some gentle pranayama, seated breathing exercises. Jelena will then guide you through a seated Mindfulness Meditation practice.

 1 p.m. - 3 p.m.

Lifting and Landing Description: This session offers detailed techniques and alignment cues that will help you find graceful, weightless transitions between postures in the practice.

• Monday Sept 26 / 1 p.m. - 3 p.m.

Hips, Knees & Forward Bends Description: Ashtanga’s Primary Series is full of forward folds and knee bends. Correct technique and alignment is important in order to avoid injuring the hamstrings, lower back, or knees. This workshop will explore the different aspects of the Primary Series forward bends with the goal of going deeper into the transformations benefits of each pose while also keeping the body safe.

• Tuesday Sept 27 / 1 p.m. - 3 p.m.

Backbends Description: Explore the alignment and actions of Ashtanga’s Primary & Intermediate Series backbends. Find the balance between organization and surrender that will allow your body to go deeper into the postures. This workshop is open to practitioners of all levels.

• Wednesday Sept 28 / 1 p.m. - 3 p.m.

Alignments & Assists

Description: Physical adjustments are one of the cornerstones of studying and teaching the Ashtanga tradition. In this workshop you will study the ideas and actions for assisting some of Ashtanga's Primary Series postures. This workshop is open to teachers and non-teachers who want to learn about the postures from a different perspective.

• Thursday Sept 29 / 1 p.m. - 3 p.m.

Intro to Intermediate Description: Ashtanga’s Second Series of postures is designed to cleanse and charge our nervous system. This workshop will provide an accessible introduction to some of the deeper backbends, hip-openers and arm-balances that make the Intermediate Series such a transformative practice. All practitioners are invited to attend.

At the moment we are only offering the full workshop package as we have limited space for the Mysore program and we want to give priority to the people that sign in for the whole week. So please be patient or even better make room to get a whole week of insights and great vibes
