COURSE DETAILS
ASHTANGA & VINYASA FLOW
Our Asana curriculum is a combination of Ashtanga Yoga; Vinyasa Flow Yoga and Yin classes. You will also practice short vinyasa flows, Yin and Restorative.
Ashtanga Vinyasa Yoga Primary series is a pre-set sequence of postures linked by the breath, focus point (Drishti) and bandhas. Vinyasa Flow yoga is a creative and artistic expression, flowing from one posture to another using the breath. The Vinyasa classes are designed to complement the theory you learn in your teaching methodology and sequencing classes.
