Ashtanga Yoga
Ashtanga yoga is a system of yoga transmitted to the modern world by Sri K. Pattabhi Jois. This method of yoga involves synchronizing the breath with a progressive series of postures-a process producing intense internal heat and a profuse, purifying sweat that detoxifies muscles and organs. The result is improved circulation, a light and strong body and a calm mind.
This class will lead you through Sun Salutations to warm the body and develop stamina; standing postures to develop balance; sitting postures to open hips, strengthen forward folding and develop spinal flexibility; back bending; plus a closing sequence with inversions to improve circulation and cool the body. Prior yoga experience is helpful but not required. Modifications are given to make the practice accessible to all body types and fitness levels. The only real requirements to participation is desire, a sense of adventure and the willingness to connect with the transforming power of your breath.
