Ashtanga Yoga: A Somatic Exploration – Full Series (3 Sessions)

À propos de cet événement

Join the complete journey through the Ashtanga Yoga Primary Sequence, explored through a somatic approach.

Across three progressive workshops, we will move through the sequence one section at a time while investigating the relationships between breath, movement, gravity and different parts of the body. Rather than working towards one ideal expression of a posture, you will be invited to explore variations that suit your body, experience and changing needs.

The series is open to both Ashtanga and Vinyasa practitioners of all levels. Each workshop includes time for individual guidance, questions and shared reflections.

Session 1 – Finding Foundations through the Standing Asanas
13 December 2026 | 15:00–17:00

We begin with the traditional Opening Mantra and a brief introduction to the history of Ashtanga Yoga and its eight limbs. We then explore the Standing Asanas one at a time, with particular attention to the relationship between the feet, pelvis and spine. Together, we investigate how stability can be developed without rigidity. The session closes with a gentle restorative practice and time for questions.

Session 2 – Returning to the Body through the Seated Asanas
24 January 2027 | 15:00–17:00

After revisiting the Standing Sequence, we move into the Seated Asanas and consider how the practice can be adapted to individual anatomy, physiological differences and changing needs. We slow down to explore twists and the relationship between breath and movement, learning to recognise the body’s signals and release unnecessary effort. We conclude with selected closing postures and shared reflections.

Session 3 – Integration through the Closing Asanas
14 February 2027 | 15:00–17:00

We begin with a guided practice of the Primary Series up to Navasana, bringing together the movement, breath and awareness developed throughout the previous sessions. We then explore the Closing Sequence, including accessible inversions with props and individual adaptations. The workshop concludes with the traditional Closing Mantra, a reflection on Mysore-style and led practice, and time for questions.
