Get • Ashtanga Yoga — An Invitation to Begin

This practice is for you if you feel drawn to a traditional, authentic approach to yoga.

No performance.
No distraction.
Just the practice itself.

Taught in the traditional Mysore style—individually and one-on-one—you’ll be guided step by step, learning each element gradually and building a yoga practice that becomes your own over time.



Mysore Mornings — A New Cycle Begins
May 1

A small group. A steady start.
An opportunity to begin—or begin again.
This is not a drop-in class.

It’s a committed, intentional container built through repetition, breath, and quiet consistency.

Limited spaces:
• 7:00 AM (1 students)
• 9:30 AM (2 students)
Open to beginners + returning students
No Mysore experience required

$60 intro month available

We begin with the foundations—sun salutations, breath, simple structure—and slowly evolve toward a more independent practice, with guidance every step of the way.

Practicing alongside others creates rhythm, accountability, and subtle, steady support.
You’re warmly invited to join us in this special class.

The Body Remembers What the Mind Forgets

There is a particular kind of returning that has no clean narrative arc. You don't arrive back at the mat the way you left it — triumphant, certain, moving through the series like water finding its level. You arrive humbly, with a body that has been living in other shapes.

You know something about the long stretch away. How absence reshapes your relationship to a thing you love. How the first return feels both foreign and inevitable. The mind hesitates. And then, somehow, it remembers. Not perfectly. But truthfully.

Ashtanga is an uncompromising practice precisely because it is also a patient one. The sequence does not change. That is the gift of returning to it. The world outside has rearranged itself — your thinking has shifted, your understanding of your own work has deepened in ways you are still tracing — but Surya Namaskara A begins the same way

There is something quietly steadying in returning to a form that holds you, even when you feel unformed. The series is a kind of armature. You rebuild yourself around it.

What you may find, coming back now, is that your time away was not absence — it was accumulation. The patience you have built sitting with things that are not yet finished, the capacity to observe without rushing toward resolution — all of it arrives on the mat with you. You may be slower in the body, but you are not less. You are, perhaps, more genuinely present to what is actually happening in each posture, less interested in the performance of it.

This is what the practice has always been asking for.

Give yourself space for a week, for a month. Let the first breaths be research. Observe without judgment — not to fix anything immediately, but to simply notice. To let the body tell you where it is. Your breath is your material.

The sequence will show you what remains.

Almost 4 months ago, My practice was put on hold to leave space for healing. In that stillness, I thought about the mat often — not with longing exactly, but with a quiet awareness of its absence. Coming back now, I notice how strange it is to return to a practice rooted so deeply in the Drishti. The focused. I see differently now, in ways both literal and hard to name. Maybe that is not a loss to overcome but something to bring with me. I step onto the mat not to reclaim what was, but to find out what is.

If you find your way back to the mat I hope you find kindness, love and freedom.

If you find yourself coming to your mat at the Shala I hope you find home.

As this new year opens, I’m living yoga in a way I didn’t expect.

Soon after arriving in Mysore, emergency eye surgery brought my physical Ashtanga practice to a full stop.

Healing in Mysore, far from home, I’m meeting uncertainty directly — without the forms I’ve relied on for years.

What’s become clear is this:
practice refines the instrument, but realization is a matter of seeing.
Without daily asana, I’m rooting into that yoga was never only physical.
Self-inquiry, kindness, patience, and the willingness to let things change — this practice continues.

Right now my daily ritual is simple: rest, care, attention.

As we move into 2026, hold your practice gently.
Let it support you — not confine you.
