Classes

In the Mysore room you practise the sequence at your own pace, following your breath and body constitution. We provide personalised guidance and offer alternatives according to your individual needs.

Here’s what makes Mysore-style unique:

• Silent Guidance: In this meditative environment, guidance flows silently through hands-on adjustments. You’ll feel the alignment principles rather than relying solely on verbal cues.
• Inward Focus: As you move through the sequence, your attention turns inward—to the sensations of body and breath. This sustained focus reveals the essence of yoga.
• Individualized Support: Our teacher works with each student individually, adapting the practice to their abilities and limitations. Newcomers receive extra attention to strengthen their foundation.
• Gradual Progression: Postures are introduced gradually, allowing you to memorize the sequence. As independence grows, adjustments and assistance are provided as needed.

From advanced practitioners to beginners, we'll meet you exactly where you are, taking the time to know you and how your body functions and moves in order to nurture a safe yoga practice. Our mission is to empower you to develop a sustainable yoga practice.

Your practice will always be tailored to suit your needs and support your life. We're passionate in transmitting our students to learn how to practise yoga mindfully, knowing what's good for you.

Join us:

Through self-effort, you will cultivate inner strenght, confidence, flexibility and peace of mind. Join us anytime during scheduled hours - there is no fixed start time - when the Mysore room opens for this transformative journey.

If you already have already have a practice but you are willing to developp a self-practice, you are encouraged to join our Intro to Mysore class for at least twice before joining our regular Mysore session.

Embark on your Ashtanga Yoga journey with our Intro to Mysore Class, a 45 minute session designed for up to 8 participants. This introductory class covers the essentials of Mysore style practice, including the breath - ujjayi breathing, where the breath leads movement, and the correct vinyasa count for Sun Salutation A and B and the first six poses of the standing sequence.

 Ideal for beginners, this class is often required at least twice before advancing to our regular Mysore sessions.

During this class you'll be guided and also encouraged to memorise the sequence at your own pace to help ensure your yoga practice relates uniquely to your individual needs. 

Progressively, you'll start gaining independence and confidence in your self-practice which will serve as a soft landing to the Mysore room in our regular Mysore style class.

Join us: 

Our Intro to Mysore classes are held in small groups, which allows us to welcome complete novices of yoga, as well as those with previous yoga practice but who are now willing to develop a self-practice.

In our Full Primary Series class, we guide students through every pose from Ashtanga’s First Primary Series. Each posture is called out, and the vinyasas (breath-synchronized movements) are counted, following the traditional vinyasa count in Sanskrit. As a group, we move and breath together in perfect sync.

Benefits of Guided Practice:

• Self-Reflection: By participating in this class, you’ll gain valuable insights into your self-practice. Notice any wandering thoughts, regain your breath connection, and eliminate fidgeting between postures.
• Mindfulness: Stay connected with your breath and maintain focus throughout the sequence.
• Refinement: Following the prescribed ‘count’ allows you to refine your practice, moving at a steady, deliberate pace.

What to expect:

• Dynamic and Focused: These classes are invigorating and laser-focused, designed to challenge both body and mind.
• Challenging Poses: Explore advanced asanas, inversions, and transitions.
• Group Synergy: Experience the collective energy of practitioners moving as one.

Due to the intensity and pace, we recommend this class for experienced students who are familiar with yoga fundamentals.
