Yoga

The movement space at Aeaea homes a program of Ashtanga Mysore-based yoga asana classes and yoga-related studies. Asana classes will focus on the individualized self-practice method of study, providing the opportunity for students to work at their own pace on the aspects that are most significant to their journey.

Ashtanga is a vinyasa method that has a set sequence of postures. Vinyasa refers to the synchronizing of movement to breath. Breath is the first layer, setting the pace and dynamic of your yoga practice. The body’s movement is layered over the breath, the postures linked by transitional movement sequences. In Ashtanga, you do the same postures in the same order ever time and the sequence is progressive in that each posture is built on the information received from previous ones. There are six series of postures, each one more challenging than the last.

Mysore then is the traditional self-practice approach to the Ashtanga technique. In a Mysore class, each student moves independently, according to the timing of their own breath, through the sequence of postures as they have learned them from their teacher. The teacher moves through the room, giving assistance, instruction, and guidance as needed on a one on one basis. This method requires a commitment of time and effort. Frequent and consistent practice results in deeper understanding and greater connection to the work of the yoga. This individualized approach allows for the practitioner to delve into their yoga as best suits them and establishes a deeply personal connection to self.

Within this self-practice setting, is the opportunity to develop a program tailored specifically to your needs. Yoga is a personal experience. Begin with a private lesson to create a program just for you.

The movement space will also provide opportunities for workshops, directed in-depth studies, continued education for movement teachers, and private personalized treatments and lessons.
