Ashtanga Yoga: Sthira Bhaga–Strength and Grace

Are you curious about Ashtanga Yoga but concerned that it might be too athletic? Are you looking for guidance on how to move your body into the next stage of flexibility, grace, and strength? Does your asana practice need a tune-up? Do you yearn for some enlightenment on how Yoga postures make our lives happier and how Yoga works? This workshop is for you!

The Ashtanga Yoga method as taught by Sri K.Pattabhi Jois follows classic yogic sastra and takes its name from the jewel of Patanjali’s teachings. While often considered a more vigorous type of Yoga practice, Jois’s system is easily adapted to all levels. Tim’s seasoned and expert teaching style allows beginner and advanced students alike to experience the rich realms of body, mind, and spirit through Ashtanga Yoga.

During this workshop, you’ll start your day with an invigorating asana class. Then, you’ll have the opportunity to explore Yoga’s foundation and how it applies to postures, health, and life during the afternoon sessions. All levels are welcome.
