Welcome to Dallas Ashtanga Yoga Shala. Preserving traditional ashtanga as taught in the mysore style Welcome to Mysore Dallas, a community at the Dallas Yoga Center dedicated to continuing the tradition of the Jois family method of Ashtanga Vinyasa yoga.
Operating as usual
The shala was motionless and silent following yesterdayโs Full Vinyasa Led Primary! Thanks to all who came out for practice, brought food/drink for the potluck, and stayed for conversation afterwards. This connection has been sorely missed over the last two years and Iโm grateful weโre now in a place again where itโs starting to feel a bit more normal.
Thanks to everybody who has come to the shala or attended classes online this last year. Each of you have made it possible for the Shala remain open during such a challenging time. Itโs been a sanctuary for us all amid such diversity and I couldnโt be more grateful to hold this space for each of you. ๐ค
Thank you @sopatton for the kind gift of orchids that now adorn Patanjali. ๐ โค๏ธ

Meet Gaby. Sheโs been practicing yoga for 15 years. Last month something shifted inside of her and she was able to bind on both sides of Marichyasna D by herself. The joy I felt inside witnessing her accomplishment is what fuels me as a teacher. The bind itself means little but the story of what led to it warms my heart. Years of consistent practice, returning over and over again to her mat to cultivate this relationship with herself. I applaud your dedication Gaby. Youโre a true inspiration to me and Iโm grateful you make our Dallas community a better place with your loving presence and easy smile. ๐ ๐
Grateful for this space and all who walk thru itโs door. Happy Thanksgiving ๐
Donโt forget, Friendsgiving tonight on the patio 6-7:30pm @ Kalachandjiโs.

Hope to see you there. ๐

Vande Gurunam Charanavinde
โI bow to lotus feet of the gurus who have come before meโ (loosely translated)
15 years ago I serendipitously walked into this manโs photography studio and experienced my first yoga class. I just so happened to also walk into my first 12 step meeting that very same day. I didnโt stay sober then and I didnโt maintain a consistent yoga practice by any means at that time but the seeds of both were sufficiently planted and would take root in the season to come.
I generally never know what role a person, situation or circumstance is playing in my life until I look back. In retrospect, Hal was one of my first teachers or gurus in that he helped usher light into my life dispelling my personal darkness. He opened his studio for yoga, among other things, to be practiced there because he is a helper, a space holder, an encourager, a true cosmic cheerleader for others to begin their process of rising, discovering their latent talents and thriving as awakened versions of themselves. He played this role for me and continues to do so when Iโm need a reminder of who I am, where Iโve come from and what I have to offer the world.
So, it was a great honor to have him come in the Shala today and experience what has grown from a seed he helped to lovingly plant and nurture all those year ago.
With endless gratitude, I bow to his feet. ๐
Happy Diwali! Feeling grateful for the love and support of the community today. Last night we shared a meal on the patio at @radhakalachandji temple and I was reminded that thru my own darkness of 20/2021, these kind souls kept candles burning for me. They held space for me even when I wasnโt aware, they lent ears and shoulders when my heart and head were heavy, and most often, they lovingly reminded me to stay steady and just keep breathing. I couldnโt have asked for better group of folks to share the path with. ๐ ๐ช
Today we celebrate Dai. She bound for the first time in Baddha Padmasana last week and is a joyful, bright light in our community. Great job on staying consistent in your practice, Dai. ๐๐
โMy love of Ashtanga started 15 yrs ago. Being a yoga teacher Iโve practice many styles of yoga but Ashtanga was my first true love. I started going to the Shala off and on about 3 years ago when we moved to DFW- itโs tough since we live south side. When DAYS started virtual classes is when I became consistent with Ashtanga. My many injuries (knee, shoulders, hand) set me back but I find myself right back on the mat doing what I can. It keeps calling me!โ
Tori started practicing with us online during the shutdown and over the months became an inspiration for many here. So when she was finally able to come practice in person a week ago, she was received with open arms like family coming home. Feeling very grateful for the warm, loving community we have here in Dallas. ๐

Meet Laurie. A daily practitioner since she began practicing Mysore style. Consistently tries hard but keeps a sense of humor about it all. She began to bind in Mari C unassisted on both sides last week after 3.5 years of daily practice. Her secret? We call it the Laurie Method and it will be on sale soon. ๐ The reality seems to me more a reflection of her approach to practice, persevere but donโt get too hung up on results.
