Ashtanga yoga is a dynamic practice which moves through a set sequence of postures, synchronising breath and movement, known as Vinyasa. The flow (Vinyasa) between each posture is an integral part of the practice designed to build internal heat to help purify the body.

• The background of Ashtanga yoga
• The dynamic Surya Namaskara (sun salutation) sequence
• How to breathe to focus the mind and move the body with awareness
• The initial poses of the Ashtanga primary series, also called, Yoga Chikitsa (yoga therapy)
• The stabilising internal muscular locks (bandhas) which help us to balance strength with flexibility in the body and to create stability in the body
• There will have many opportunities to ask questions and your experienced teacher will offer modifications to the practice to suit your individual needs, in an open and supportive environment.
• On completion of the course you will feel comfortable to continue your Ashtanga practice in either an Ashtanga Led or Mysore style class.
