is traditionally taught in a Mysore Style class where the practitioner commits the sequence to memory and practices at his/her own pace. The teacher guides the sequence to the student assisting with hands-on adjustments and verbal instructions to deepen the practitioner's understanding of the practice, breath and focus or drishti. At Asana House you can find Mysore Style, Led Beginner and Full Primary Led Classes as well as private instruction in the series. Below are the details for the times and pricing.
Mysore style is a self paced practice following Ashtanga Yoga sequencing. Mysore practice is the name given to the style of yoga teaching developed by guru Sri K. Pattabhi Jois at his yoga shala in Mysore, southern India. Students of all levels from beginners to advanced practice side by side. This is one of the best ways to practice learning the sequence with hands-on adjustments from the teacher. Students are given one-on-one instruction from the teacher as they progress through a set sequence of postures, starting with the Primary Series and moving gradually into the more advanced Series.

If you are new yoga and are interested in developing a life long practice try Mysore. Beginners are welcome to come to the mat to start to develop a yoga practice. There is no experience required just a desire to learn and a willingness to practice. With this self paced system of learning the Ashtanga Series you work at your pace with your teacher and work this process together. See above for times studio is open for practice. It is recommended to attend studio classes at least two times a week in the beginning. Your practice from start to finish will usually take 1 to 1 1/2 hours.
Led Ashtanga classes are with a teacher leading the class and instructing students in the order of the poses, usually in the primary. We will work at the level of the group and move at the group pace. This is a beneficial way to start learning about the sequencing. Attending two to three classes is helpful to get familiar with the practice and once sequence of poses is committed to memory it can be an ideal foundation for growing in your yoga practice.

Ashtanga is a form of yoga that focuses on the breath to move you from pose to pose while breathing freely within each asana. Students will learn the sequence of poses that comprise the Ashtanga system and also explore the basic principles of this ancient tradition through handouts and video clips. The benefits of Ashtanga yoga include: building strength, increasing flexibility and muscle tone, and reducing stress. All levels are welcome. This class is great for anyone new to Ashtanga whether you have stepped on the mat before or not.
