ASHTANGA WORKSHOP: Unravelling the Primary Series (3 parts)

This is a 3-part workshop. You can book all 3 parts together or independently, but you should be familiar with the practice until the point where we left it in the previous part. 

Sunday 2nd February 2025Unravelling the Primary Series Part 1: Samasthiti to Virabhadrasana & Finishing Sequence.

Sunday 2nd March 2025 Unravelling the Primary Series Part 2: Dandasana to Navasana.

Sunday 6th April 2025Unravelling the primary series Part 3: Bhujapidasana to Setu Bandhasana.

If you book only one part, you should be familiar with the sequence until the specified point.

In this workshop, we will look closely at a portion of the primary series or Yoga Chikizta, the most healing and therapeutic sequence of the Ashtanga yoga method.

You will begin the path of self-discovery, a long-term process that requires dedication, discipline, determination, trust, and patience.

Ashtanga is a method for everyone. It provides you with a structure, but you can work within this structure at your own pace, safely and intelligently practising with mindfulness and acceptance. Modifications can be done for different levels of experience or in case of injury, and there is always the option to skip certain poses if necessary, hence your practice is sustainable, long-lasting, and beneficial. It will take you to a place of great compassion and understanding toward yourself and others

We will look closely at the three elements of Tristana (breath, bandhas and drishti). These fundamental tools will transform your practice, cultivate presence, focus and stability, and make your asana practice a full mind and body experience that transcends from your mat into all aspects of life.

This workshop is for any curious student interested in learning from the beginning or continuing to learn the Ashtanga method. For those who want to start practising Ashtanga, it will provide a solid foundation. For those who have some experience with the practice, it will be an opportunity to clarify and deepen your understanding of this method.

This is an open-level workshop. It is open for those who have existing yoga experience, but is not suitable for complete beginners to yoga.
