Four Week Live Online Series: Friday evenings from 6pm-8pm
Curious about Ashtanga?
Looking for a way to start a yoga practice during the pandemic?
Hoping to refine, “clean-up” or jump-start your established practice?
Join expert teacher and long-time Ashtanga practitioner, Lori Brandt for a four-part series that helps the beginning student slowly build a personal yoga practice by introducing the Ashtanga Primary Series. Ashtanga Yoga is energizing, challenging, yet calming and meditative form of vinyasa yoga. Students start by concentrating on how to link the smooth long breathing pattern (ujjayi) with the physical movement of the sequence (asana). Ashtanga is a personal practice that is guided by the insight and direction of experienced teachers. As the student practices and acquires more facility, the teacher adds more and more asana postures and the focus of the practice turns to all aspects of the Ashtanga tristana: breath, bandhas and dristis.
