OUR APPROACH

Our approach to asana focuses on slowing down traditional sequences from the Krishnamacharya tradition in order to move through postures with attention to both external and internal alignment. Internal alignment adds to the practice of yoga postures a psychological dimensions which focuses on drsti (gazing), pranayama (breathing) and bandhas (energetic flow). This approach crosses boundaries between various schools of yoga and in doing so helps the practitioner develop a mature practice that focuses not just on the physical aspects of yoga but the psychological benefits as well.

Our classes are small (up to 14 people max.) and we take care in building relationships with all who attend so people can develop a practice that is appropriate for them.

CLASS DESCRIPTION

Using a rich context of philosophy and meditative insight, the two yoga classes will allow participants to bring a new degree of freedom, technical skill and compassion to their every day practice. Students will learn small, subtle adjustments in form and attitude that can make problematic and difficult poses produce their fruits. Whether you are a beginner or an advanced practitioner of yoga, you’ll learn new ways to adapt to the present moment and make your practice graceful and free.
