Ashtanga Influenced

Back to Classes List  >>

 

Ashtanga yoga is based on the teachings of Sri K. Pattabhi Jois. This aerobic style of yoga focuses on the primary principles of combining intentional breathing with fluid movements from pose to pose while engaging bandhas (muscular locks) which serve to contain our powerful life force. Students will become familiar with sun salutations, the traditional standing sequence and a variety of seated postures within the primary series. For those with extreme muscular tension or injury concerns, modifications will be offered.
