About:

Ashtanga vinyasa yoga is a dynamic, challenging, sequential asana (posture) based practice of yoga that combines the principles of
Patanjali’s eight limbs and T Krishnamacharya and K Pattabhi Jois’s development of linking movements together.
The class is an introduction to the primary series – led through the standing postures up to the first few seated postures.
The postures can be modified or adapted to suit all abilities

Benefits of the class:

● Learn breath control
● Build strength
● Focus the mind

Testimonials:

”Tom, I really enjoyed the course and thought you were very thoughtful in how you taught us the sequences and very supportive!
Thank you! It felt very accessible as a beginner. I think Ashtanga can have a reputation as being quite vigorous but you made it feel
nourishing. I am inspired to do more!” Kerry
