Journey to Mysore
An Ashtanga intensive workshop to gain confidence and build a solid practice.
The self-practice method (also called Mysore style) is the traditional way to learn the Ashtanga Vinyasa yoga. It allows you to unfold through the Ashtanga serie, at your rhythm. This is the opportunity to gain independence and confidence in your practice, tailored to your needs and your body.
This workshop is for all-level practitioners wanting to either start practicing the Ashtanga Method, or wanting to take their practice to the next level, the Mysore way.
[Workshops are not refundable neither exchangeable in case of cancellation]
The Program
The greater part of the workshop will be a Deep Dive & Exploration of the standing and seated postures – Alignments and transitions.
On top of that, you will discover;
- The Ashtanga Vinyasa System as a therapeutic practice
- The meaning of the Opening and Closing Mantras
- The Tristhana, pillars of the practice
- The Anatomy of the Ashtanga Vinyasa Sequence
This workshop includes one Full Primary Sheet and a 3-class pass that you can use for any of our Mysore practices (valid for 6 weeks).
The Mysore Experience
In a Mysore room, each practitioner is journeying through the same sequence at his.er own pace, while being fully supported by the collective energy and the kind guidance of the teacher creating a safe space for all. Practicing Ashtanga in a Mysore setting is like having a private class with your teacher while moving through your sequence along with other practitioners. It’s a place of self-discovery through self-practice, giving yourself a chance, each time you show up on your mat, to create a practice on your terms, based on the wonderful teaching of the Ashtanga Vinyasa System.
Posture after posture, you are exploring the depth of the practice, not only at the physical level: at the mental and emotional level as well, releasing blockers that may arise.
Mysore is the true gift of the Ashtanga System – A self-practice, allowing yourself to find alignment and authenticity, on your mat and therefore, throughout your life.
The Gift of Ashtanga
Beyond the postures and movements that you will learn and hone, the Ashtanga is offering so much more than a “strength and bodywork”.
The Ashtanga Primary Serie, called Yoga Therapy (Yoga Chikitsa) is a set sequence that has been built to heal ourselves; not only physically, but above all, mentally and emotionnally.
This is an opportunity to tune in with yourself, and create a space to breath and “be with” whatever you need to face or to release.
Your Ashtanga practice becomes a lifestyle, enabling you to build courage, endurance and resilience – always with heart, with softness and with kindness.
