Mysore ‘Aftercare’
As I continue to search for another venue to host the morning Mysore classes , I want to let students know I am always available via email or telephone  to discuss any parts of the practice.

*The term ‘mysore-style’ refers to the way the Ashtanga Yoga method is taught by Sri K Pattabhis Jois in Mysore, India. The ashtanga yoga system follows a therapeutic and progressive sequence of postures. Each student is encouraged to memorise the series and develop a personal practice.

In a mysore-style class each student is taught individually and is given a one to one lesson within the group setting. The student is taught progressively according to his or her individual needs. Ashtanga yoga is an exact and detailed method that is learned over the course of several years.
