What's Astanga Yoga?

Astanga (also Ashtanga) Yoga is the Root method of all "dynamic" yoga, from which all the other types of yoga stem from; Hatha/dynamic/vinyasa/flow etc…the list is long!​

 

Some people think Astanga Yoga is hard to do and only for bendy, strong people. But the opposite is true: Astanga Yoga is for everyone.

 

Astanga is a system that starts easy and becomes progressively harder.  Your teacher decides how far you should go in the sequence and over time, guides you through at a safe and sustainable pace.​​

Why Mysore Style?

'Mysore Style' is the traditional way in which you learn Astanga Yoga.

 

 Everyone is taught individually within a class. All levels practice together at the same time with one-to-one help  from the yoga teacher.​

 

All students learn the same sequence under teacher guidance. Beginners gradually learn the start while advanced students continue on to later parts of the sequence.​​

​

This can help reduce the risk of injury and helps you to build a practice that stays with you forever.

About Astanga Yoga Here

At Astanga Yoga Here, you will learn the Original method of Yoga taught the Traditional way.  â€‹â€‹â€‹

 

It is the way in which Teacher Roberta Giannotti learned yoga from her Guru in Mysore, India many years ago and which she passes on in exactly the same way today.​

 

The 'way' is called Mysore-style yoga: in which Roberta guides all students one-to-one through the Astanga Yoga sequence​​​.

 

One of the great advantages of this system is that you learn to memorise a sequence which means when you can practice on your own when you can't make it to class.
