Training 2009

Foundation courses in Ashtanga Yoga Fridays and Saturdays

These run as 6 week blocks

This 6 week course will cover the fundamental elements and poses of Ashtanga Yoga.

We will look at the introductory physical postures (asanas) in some detail, ensuring they are practised correctly.

We will learn the breathing technique and vinyasas (breath-synchronised movement) essential to the practise of Ashtanga.

We will learn about the Bandhas (internal energetic ‘locks’) and the Drishtis(gazing points) both vital components of the practise.

Some of the background and history of this system of yoga (as taught by Sri K Pattabhi Jois and Sharath in Mysore) will be covered.

There will also be time to focus on individual questions and problems that students may want to address.

Completion of the 6 weeks will provide you with a strong foundation for your practise and will leave you feeling confident to join in any level 1 led class or a Mysore class.

The course is suitable for complete beginners to ashtanga as well as students who have been to led classes but wish to ‘go back to basics’ and study the essential components in more detail.

The cost is £48 payable in advance.
