Ashtanga vinyasa yoga as tought in Mysore by Shri K. Pattabhi Joice and his lineage

Ashtanga vinyasa yoga uses element of strong breath called ujjayi breathing to move from one posture to next making sure that practitioner keeps the concentration by gazing at certain looking point or dristhi. This method of yoga practiced on regular bases purifies the body and helps develop the strength, vitality and inner body intelligence.There are two types of classes offered:
Self practise or

mysore practice where practitioner is already familiar with the basic sequence of primary series and teacher adjusts student and helps when and where needed and Beginners led class where no experience is needed, students will be guided through the basis of primary series. There isn't such thing as being too stiff to practice this method of yoga, anyone can do it, young, old, sick just not lazy people as Guruji used to say

Since I had a few questions on how the shiatsu workshop will work and can people take individual sessions instead of full block of five here is little more explanation for everybody:

The workshops will be designed like this:

Basic of Do In and Kata (lets call them sun salutations and standing postures for better understanding), holding perpendicular pressure I will be teaching and re teaching in every single session, they are base and will be repeated over and over again.

The only difference will be that in each workshop we will concentrate on different thing/part of the body for instance back, feet, head etc. so if we are doing feet and week before was stomach I cannot in respect of time go back into detailed explanation of stomach, you will have to do stomach some other time but you will not miss out on the basics and feet for instance.

Practise of shiatsu techniques is same as yoga, it's practise of awareness so I will repeat this workshops again. If you missed one of them you can catch up in next bock…

I also do every year at least three big workshops to stay in touch with basics and then add on it and learn more. Like in our ashtanga practise no matter how many times we did our practice we always learn more and more every single time we practise…

Listening to the body

We were talking about mini shiatsu practises that will both help with your practise of yoga and "keep your boss under control" as well as enable you to make and maintain the honest contact with people. Observe reality as it is, sun or rain accept and get on…
Quiet sea has never made a skill full sailor so the life brings it's own challenges. How to deal with this challenges and maintain the balance as much as possible will learn with this mini shiatsu workshops. The website has been updated so pls take a look at the Events page…
Wishing you all a wonderful day!

Dearest, just in case you forgot, there is practise as usual tomorrow morning at 10.00 and I hope to see as many of you there :-) If you have a sore muscles from the workshop, solution is simple and no that's not staying in bed for extra hour but taking it easy and being conscious of your breath! Breath is the only thing that matters
Remember, make the breath your best friend…there's no better friend you can ever have in your life…

See you all tomorrow!
With love and gratitude to all of you X###x
