Ashtanga Inspired Yoga
Tuesdays at 5:30PM
Ashtanga Vinyasa Yoga is a style of yoga developed in Mysore India by Sri K. Pattabhi Jois and T. Krishnamacharya. It is said to have originated from the ancient text, the "Yoga Kuruntha." The emphasis of Ashtanga Vinyasa Yoga is connecting movement and breath. The ‘Vi’ in Vinyasa is a prefix that adds an intensification to ‘Nyas’ (the root) meaning “to place.” Vinyasa can then be translated as “to place something in a special way." In Ashtanga Yoga, asanas are practiced in a fixed sequence with repetition built into the practice. Every movement, breath, and gaze is set, allowing for a more internal experience rather than wondering what comes next or what the teacher is instructing. Every movement has a correlating inhale or exhale with specific transitions to get in and out of each asana. The vinyasa in Ashtanga Yoga not only describes the order of the sequence, but also the specific way each asana is practiced and how each asana is linked to the next. This 60-minute dynamic flow will introduce students to the Ashtanga Vinyasa Yoga Primary Series (1st Series).
