Ashtanga Vinyasa Primary Series (also known as the First Series or Yoga Chikitsa) means yoga therapy. When practiced regularly, heals all sickness and purifies your body in preparation for more profound Yogic practice - both physical and meditative. Ashtanga Yoga is a definite sequence of various Hatha Yoga Asanas or poses coupled with a particular set of breathing techniques called ‘Ujjayi Pranayama.’ This sequence was developed by the famous Hatha Yoga Master of the 20th century - Yogi K Pattabhi Jois. Ashtanga Yoga Primary Series is an ancient Hatha yoga text known as ‘Yoga Korunta.’ This ancient yoga series is practiced with synchronized breathing techniques (Vinyasa) that promote ‘flow of breathe’ in the asana or pose practice. Together, this is called Ashtanga Vinyasa Yoga Style. During the course, you will receive a workshop focused on alignment and adjustment techniques for the main postures of the Ashtanga Yoga primary series and a few other more advanced postures if you wish. It will be focusing on the Asana (the physical aspects of poses). 🌸🌳🌹 I'll also try to cover as much of Pranayama (breathing) and Dristhi (where to look at) as possible. I passionately believe in the significance of discovery and experience on the development of your unique personal voice.

Yoga is often recommended as a beneficial practice for relieving anxiety and stress. It combines gentle physical exercises, breathing techniques and meditation, which can help calm the mind and relax the body. Here are some reasons why yoga might benefit you: Stress management: Yoga encourages increased awareness of your breathing and body, which can help reduce stress levels and promote relaxation. Improved breathing: Yoga emphasizes deep, mindful breathing techniques, which can help regulate your nervous system and reduce anxiety. Body Strengthening: Yoga postures (asanas) can improve strength, flexibility and balance, which contributes to better overall physical health. Mental focus: Practicing yoga requires concentration and presence of mind, which can help you detach yourself from anxious thoughts and refocus on the present moment. Community and support: Joining a yoga class can connect you with others who share similar concerns and provide additional social support. It is important to note that everyone is different and methods of relieving anxiety may vary. If you are considering starting yoga, I recommend consulting with a healthcare professional, such as a doctor or therapist, to discuss your specific situation and get advice tailored to your needs.
