ShashiKala Ashtanga Yoga

Join us to fall in love with the practice ✨
At our intimate shala we create a space for traditional teachings to meet students of all backgrounds wherever they are in their unique process.

Every student is different and the beauty about the Mysore style approach is its emphasis on the personal transmission between student and teacher.

Shashikala has a rich experience being taught for nearly 15 years by her guru in the first shala in Lakshmipuram. Ever since the blessing of her guru, she has been teaching with devotion and love that is felt in every word and touch.

She honors the roots of the lineage and prioritizes student wellbeing by offering individualized support in the poses / props where needed and her gentle and enabling encouragement in the shala’s atmosphere.

The warm moments shared with chai and family after the practice add a unique touch that feels timeless and gives students a glimpse of what Mysore / the practice environment before technology / telephones used to be. Just sadhana & satsang … sharing movement, silence and breaths and cherishing each heartfelt moment.

We are always grateful for students who choose to come and share energy with us.

Come for a drop-in class or stay for deeper study.
We have 2 certified YTT’s coming up in March & April.

Peace is a practice & we are so grateful for students finding their way to their mats to embody it.

At three sisters yoga shala we share the traditional Ashtanga yoga practice, for the body and mind to be free and the breath to become our guide on this life journey.

In this photo we practice first series in Mysore style, where adjustments and support is being given to the student individually and the repetition and structure of the postures quietens the mind. This sequence is called ‘yoga chikitsa’ or yoga therapy .. as when the thoughts become clear, we become attuned to our body and a guardian of our wellbeing.

Join us for one of the two upcoming YTT200 immersions in Mysore.
- March or April 2026
Or join our daily drop-in sessions.

Yoga is 1 % theory and 99 % practice

On the mat we cultivate tapasya or the yogic fire through our ability to move through poses with breath awareness and deepening presence …

We teach ourselves to remain with the same level of commitment , no matter the level of challenge or relationship we have with each of positions. This equanimity translates to our life by no longer being pushed or pulled by circumstances and changes around.

Througu our sadhana, moments of resistance give us the greatest opportunity to deepen our relationship to human existence and all people that are part of it.

The Ashtanga yoga series puts this into practice and teaches us true humility and insight into the way we meet and perceive the world around.

Come and experience the authentic method with and connect with the heart of the practice and life.
