Style: Ashtanga Mysore-style

This course is for you if you have some basic knowledge of Ashtanga primary or secondary series, and if you wish to explore technique and postures in more depth, without the constraint of conforming to the group rhythm. Unlike a "led" class where the teacher sets the rhythm for the whole group, the Mysore-style format allows you to find your own pace of practice and depth of exploration. In this format, the teacher focuses on one-on-one guidance regarding any aspect of the technique, posture or adjustments. This detailed exploration greatly increases your confidence in the practice and allows you to develop your self-practice at home. As the course lasts 2 hours, there is enough time for asana and group pranayama, meditation and relaxation. For the asana section, you can download and bring the illustrated primary and intermediate sequences of Ashtanga yoga to class. Go to the Ashtanga Mysore-style page.

Teacher: Marija Bjekovic

Marija practiced Ashtanga vinyasa yoga since 2008 under the guidance of Denise Pesch. Over time, she complemented Ashtanga with Iyengar Yoga (with Constantinos Giannetakis) and with Vinyasa Krama. This brought an understanding of how to wisely adapt the physical practice in order to emphasize strength, mobility, mental focus or healing as needed. With gradual extension to other limbs of yoga, her practice became a means to balance energy, reconnect to a state of deep inner peace, and relate to the world more meaningfully. Her teaching path started after 200 hours of Ashtanga yoga teacher training with John Scott and Lucy Crawford Scott in 2015. Over the years, she continued her studies and teaching within the lineage of Sri T. Krishnamcharya (the father of modern yoga and a pioneer in yoga therapy) through Srivatsa Ramaswami and A.G. Mohan. She is currently following an 800-hour Svastha Yoga Therapy Foundations program with A.G. Mohan and his family. Go to Marija's page.
