2010 BEGINNER’S COURSES

A challenging and dynamic form of Yoga that when practiced regularly, builds your flexibility, strength and stamina. You will develop at your own pace and be guided forward according to your individual needs.

The method of Ashtanga yoga was transmitted to the modern world by Sri K. Pattabhi Jois. Our teachers will help you to become established in the foundations of this method and to build your consistent practice.

We recommend students repeat courses before attending timetabled Mysore Classes. In 2010 we will be offering a transition class to Mysore on Monday and Wednesday nights at 7.30pm, check website for details.
