Mysore style is a unique and personalized approach to learning Ashtanga yoga, named after the city in India where this method was developed and popularized. Unlike a typical led class, the Mysore class allows you to practice at your own pace with individualized instruction, making it suitable for all levels, from beginners to advanced practitioners.
Key Components of the Mysore Class
Self-Paced Practice: In a Mysore class, you practice the Ashtanga sequence at your own pace. This self-paced approach allows you to focus on your breath, alignment, and movement without feeling rushed. Whether you're just starting or have been practicing for years, you can progress at a rate that suits your comfort and skill level.
Individualized Instruction: Our experienced instructors provide personalized guidance and adjustments throughout the class. This one-on-one attention ensures that you receive the support and feedback you need to refine your practice and deepen your understanding of each posture.
Building Independence: The Mysore style encourages you to memorize the sequence and develop a self-sufficient practice. This fosters a deeper connection to your practice and allows you to take it with you wherever you go.
Supportive Community: While the practice is individual, the Mysore class fosters a sense of community. Practitioners of all levels share the space, inspiring and supporting each other. The communal energy enhances the overall experience and creates a motivating environment.
Flexibility and Adaptability: Mysore classes are typically held over a set period, such as a two-hour window, allowing you to arrive and start your practice at any time within that period. This flexibility makes it easier to fit yoga into your schedule and provides a relaxed, accommodating atmosphere.
