Hesistant to Practice Online?

We were too!

However, we've found the Online Mysore Style Experience

to be incredibly effective in growing your personal practice

What Is Mysore Style?

Mysore Style is one of the most effective methods to develop a consistent yoga practice.

Each student moves independently - working on their own practice -

according to the timing of their own breath.

Each student works through their sequence of postures,

as they have learned them from their teacher.

Meaning that the room remains a meditative quiet space

despite the class being a group experience.

The teacher moves through the room, giving assistance, instruction, and guidance

as needed on a one-to-one basis -

which is one of the most effect ways to learn.

The practice is shared based on the individual needs of the student.

What Is Ashtanga Yoga?

The Ashtanga system is designed to purify the body, promote proper functioning of the digestive system, build strength, and restore range of motion to the body. 

The method of practice taught in Ashtanga Yoga relies on linking postures with deep, even breathing and steady gazing

with the eyes.

The system of linking the breath with movement is known as vinyasa and encourages the blood to circulate properly allowing the removal of unwanted toxins. 

The gazing point helps to facilitate a state of meditation, having a profound effect on the steadiness of the mind.

The purpose of the practice is to make the practitioner fit, calm, and stable.

It is also an effective practice for students seeking recovery from harmful lifestyle patterns and habits.
