FUNDAMENTALS OF ASHTANGA VINYASA YOGA
This week intensive is designed for all levels of students, those who want to learn, deconstruct and breakdown the asanas of Ashtanga's Primary Series.
While the primary sequence main focus is forward-bending and hip-opening, most students like the physical challenges that come along with its many interesting twists and turns throughout its journey, in and out of 60 plus postures.
Each morning class you will be verbally guided through the primary series, learning all of its variations and full expressions of asana.

The Style: |
| Ashtanga Vinyasa Yoga Background: |
The Sanskrit word Vinyasa means “breath-synchronized movement”, the popularity and spread of Vinyasa Yoga came from two (2) main influencial Guru`s of our past; Tirumalai Krishnamacharya and K. Pattabhi Jois.
Tirumalai Krishnamacharya (November 18, 1888 – February 28, 1989) was an Indian yoga teacher, ayurvedic healer and scholar.
Often referred to as "The Father of Modern Yoga," Krishnamacharya is widely regarded as one of the most influential yoga teachers of the 20th century and is credited with the revival of hatha yoga.
Pattabhi Jois began his yoga studies in 1927 at the age of 12 with Krishnamacharya, and by 1948 had established the Ashtanga Yoga Research Institute for teaching the specific yoga practice known as Ashtanga Yoga. Ashtanga Yoga is named after the eight limbs of yoga mentioned in the Yoga Sutras of Patanjali.
"Power yoga" and "vinyasa yoga" are generic terms that may refer to any type of vigorous yoga exercise derived from Ashtanga yoga.

Currently his yoga teaching and philosophy draws wisdom from both the Ashtanga and Iyengar systems.
