Ashtanga Vinyasa Yoga

The Yoga Mandiram has what is called a Ashtanga Yoga Mysore Class devoted to the Ashtanga Vinyasa Yoga. This class is where Ashtanga Yoga practitioners practice the Ashtanga Vinyasa Yoga series. You need to have the beginning aspects of the practice in place before you participate in this class. Currently you may learn the beginning aspects of the series from Marne Green on Wednesday nights until October 6th. Class Schedule >>>

Some Important Notes for this class

The Mysore class is not a led class like a regular yoga class, the student simply starts their practice when they are ready. You can come in up to a half an hour before the end of the class. (class ends at 8:45am)

The teacher will come around and adjust you or give you some direction if are lost or have any questions.

We may be doing Pranayama when you come in ( the studio door is open at 6:30). Please feel free to come in and start your practice.

I would suggest you learn the Ashtanga Vinyasa Yoga Series from Tim Miller at The Ashtanga Yoga Center after October 6th.

Fire Up Flow

I developed the Fire Up Flow over a period of many years (19 to be exact). It is what we call a Vinyasa Flow series of postures (the word Vinyasa means “breath-synchronized movement.”). This means we move the body with the breath from posture to posture. One posture leads us to the next posture with the breath linking them together.

We start with a series of postures called Sun Salutations which progressively build into other smaller series of postures, leaving room at the end of the class for a seated mediation and/or a long restorative resting period.

Having been teaching yoga asana (postures), meditation and philosophy for many years now and I have found that this series of postures to be extremely beneficial for a wide range of dispositions and age groups.

I have students that are up 72 years old practicing this series of postures right next to professionall athletes and working mothers. It’s a proven antidote for relieving pain and stress, at the same time building a strong, flexible, well balanced body.

Fusion Flow

A flow class designed for all levels circuiting through all of the unique qualities Yoga Mandiram has to offer such as: rope wall postures & flow, myofacial release techniques, active and inactive restorative postures, pranayama (breathing) and little meditation. Integrating all of these methods to empower you and your life style.

Restorative Yoga

A perfect way to end the week, using both active and inactive restorative postures sequenced to relieve stress and open your body. This is a great class for any level. There is a class just before the restorative class called Fire Up Flow level 1-2…Great to do just before the restorative class and remember, your second class in a day is free.
