Students practice at their own pace, learning the ashtanga sequence slowly, over time, with the guidance of the instructor. This method is an extremely beneficial way to learn yoga practice, as information is given to the student based on his or her level of experience. In addition to the Mysore practice, the shala also teaches many guided class each week. Primary series guided classes are intended for students with some practice experience, while mixed level classes are more exploratory and open to all level students. We recommend you come and try a number of different classes and get to know our teaching staff. Feel free to ask us about the ashtanga method, our current class schedule and what classes might be appropriate for you. |

Teachers who have visited the shala include: Tim Miller, Manju Jois, Beryl Bender Birch, Doug Swenson, David Newman, Manorama, John Campbell, David Oliver, Govinda Russell Kai, Greg Tebb, Denise Johnson and others. Hosting teachers with years of teaching and practice experience aids our entire community.
