Joining the Mysore class is the perfect way to begin your journey in Ashtanga Yoga.
You'll be receiving individual instruction, so this class is perfectly safe and requires no previous experience. In the beginning your practice will be short, but stimulating to the body and mind. You'll move through a sequence of positions with emphasis on committing these to memory. Gradually you will integrate the postures you have learned, and flow through them confidently as you advance further into the sequence.
Led classes do require some experience & aren’t suited to complete beginners to Ashtanga. Students who are learning the Primary Series are welcome to join, and should stop at their last pose when it is reached - if you are told to stop at any point, it is in the interest of your safety and longevity in the practice. It is completely normal for some students not to go through the whole series in led classes.
We teach by a traditional method so we do usually give hands-on adjustments.
These come from experienced teachers and are approached with utmost care & safety in mind, and while they are beneficial, we completely understand that some students may prefer not to be adjusted in the shala. You are free to say no to physical adjustments at any time, and this will be respected without you having to explain your reasons.
