Ashtanga Yoga has evolved over 1000s of years

to help individuals foster moral, physical, mental,

emotional, and spiritual development. Yogis believe

a clear mind is the key to personal enlightenment. In

working towards clarity, we use asanas (physical

postures) to help focus the mind and reconnect it to

the body.



The physical practice is dynamic, precise and

rigorous, using specific postures, breathing

techniques and meditation to develop the mind

and body.




Both Primary and Secondary Series classes

connect the breath with postures, creating a

flowing rythm that heats the body and clears the mind.



The PRIMARY SERIES focuses on forward bending,

lengthening hamstrings and opening the hips.

These postures are associated with releasing

ourselves from the past. They also relieve lower back

pain and create flexibility.



The SECONDARY SERIES focuses on backbending and

spinal twisting. These are cleansing postures and help

us open ourselves to the future.
