Moving into Mysore:
++The Mindful Body November 16th, SF Mysore is a self-paced, independent practice method conducted in a group setting under the close watch and support of the teacher. This method, and the Ashtanga system in general, is one of the most powerful ways to evolve and transform your yoga practice as a beginner or advanced student. But how to begin? In this afternoon workshop, Matt will discuss the fundamentals of Mysore Style Ashtanga practice, and the practice culture. He will also offer an overview of modern yoga history to help you understand the benefit of Ashtanga and its’ influence on yoga as we practice it in the west. You will even learn the answer to why we practice in the morning! This workshop will be a mixture of practice, lecture, questions, and answer. It is recommended for students of all levels, including those with already established practices. For more details please click here
