            Whether you are new to Ashtanga or just want to deepen your existing Ashtanga practice, this weekend is for you. We welcome folks of all levels of practice, from beginners to the more-seasoned, to come for a weekend and work together cooperatively to deepen and grow through the Ashtanga Yoga system, in a supportive, friendly and nurturing yoga environment.

            Learn the basic, fundamental aspects of the Ashtanga system in our Workshop Weekend. We limit the class to no more than 6 students, to ensure individual attention.


            More than just learning how to do the Ashtanga practice effectively, this is a workshop where we bond with one another through a learning model based on the compassionate tenets of Yoga practice and philosophy. It's a lovely way of feeling connected with your fellow students and with your teacher, and a really supported and safe way to learn the practice. 
            You'll learn:
            • how to integrate your breath with your movements
            • the easiest and safest way (for each particular individual) to do Sun Salutes,
            • how to channel your energy efficiently, so that practice is easier, not harder
            • how to best quiet your mind and focus on the moment you are in,
            • how to  listen to your body, so that your practice stays safe
            • the intention and logic underlying the sequence of postures, 
            • how to memorize the sequence intuitively (it's easier than you think!)

            Sunday afternoon's workshop will build upon Saturday's lessons, with an emphasis and support of each student to start to memorize the sequence and feel comfortable in Mysore classes. Memorizing the sequence deepens the subtlety and nuances you can experience in the practice, makes it much more meditative than a led class, and enables you to develop a home practice, too. It also helps you see your progress as you continue to practice.

            Then, you can take these tools and use them to build upon your own experience of Ashtanga during the following 30 days, practicing in our drop in classes as often as you can, EVERY DAY IF YOU WANT, with a discounted 30 day unlimited class card.

            Our Fundamentals Weekend is open to individuals ages 15 and older - ALL ARE WELCOME!

            Cost is just $125 for BOTH the workshop weekend, and the following month of unlimited classes  (Workshop Weekend alone - $65).  Email us to pre-register!
