A gentle, supportive introduction to the fundamentals of Ashtanga yoga. Over four weeks we’ll explore breath, movement, and simple sequences that build strength, steadiness, and confidence.
This course is perfect for complete beginners or students wanting to revisit the basics in a small, friendly group (max 5 people). The small group will ensure personalised guidance and time for questions.
Each week will focus on a group of postures from the Ashtanga primary series, with a short exploration of another aspect of practice; chanting, meditation, and pranayama. There will be some 'homework' each week to encourage students to build a home practice or join Mysore classes with confidence.
Week one: Chanting the opening invocation, sun salutations, using props, and savasana - the importance of resting after practice.
Week two: Sun salutation recap, standing postures, intro to the closing sequence.
Week three: Standing postures recap, intro to seated postures, and basic backbends.
Week four: Moving through the modified half primary sequence, how to approach self-practice, and the importance of sitting practice (meditation).
Please arrive five minutes before the start time of 18.00.
Bring your own mat if you have one, if not please let me know and I'll bring one for you.
Get in touch if you have any questions!
