Service Description

This Saturday morning class is for those new to Ashtanga, and is just perfect for setting you up for the rest of your weekend! We will be exploring the Ashtanga Primary Series (Yoga Chikitsa - Yoga Therapy) as developed by Sri K Pattabhi Jois. It's a carefully constructed series of asanas that flow seamlessly from one to the other in order to promote healing and purification. We begin with Sun Salutations, move into the Standing Sequence, then Seated Sequence, then Finishing Sequence. Because each class (apart from the last one in the block) is an hour long, we will only be practising certain asanas, with fewer vinyasas than a full, traditional Ashtanga session. Each class will include a focus on a particular asana or technique. In the final class of each block we will go through the whole series from beginning to end, so you will need to set aside at least 90-minutes for this. Please note: These classes are non-transferable with the regular Hatha classes. This is a block of SEVEN sessions. Class dates: 11th, 18th & 25th Jan; 1st, 8th, 15th & 22nd Feb
