Ashtanga Mysore-style Class (2 hr)

starts Wednesday 04 september 2019 at 10:00

This is a Mysore-style class which means that each student knows and practices the sequence of postures at his/her own rhythm. This gives more freedom to the student and also frees the teacher to circulate throughout the room and take the time to give specific hands-on adjustments.

As the course lasts 2 hours, there is time for bandha instruction and practice in the beginning and pranayama, meditation and relaxation at the end of class.

Cancellation Policy

All cancellations are subject to a 5-Euro administration fee. Payment is refundable (less administration fee) if cancellation is done no later than August 30th.

Style: Ashtanga Mysore-style

This course is for you if you have a working knowledge of the Ashtanga primary or second series and are motivated to develop or refine your own Ashtanga self-practice. Unlike a "led" class where the teacher sets the rhythm for the whole group, in "Mysore", you practice on your own in your own rhythm while the teacher passes by to give each student personal, one-on-one guidance on technique, alignment, physical adjustments, and postural adaptations. You want to spend longer exploring a posture and its variation one class? This gives you the time and opportunity to do so without the constraints of conforming to a group rhythm. As the course lasts 2 hours, there will be time at the end for group pranayama, meditation and relaxation. Go to the Ashtanga Mysore-style page.

Teacher: Surya Fackelmann

Surya Fackelmann Surya was first exposed to yoga when her mother practiced it while pregnant. She practiced yoga as a child and, after some years of absence, took up a daily yoga practice in 2011. Since 2013, she practices Ashtanga Vinyasa yoga on a daily basis. Surya has experienced the obvious benefits of a dedicated Ashtanga practice - improved strength and flexibility. She also deeply values the more subtle benefits, including inner balance and a calm strength of body and mind - on and off the mat. Surya believes that Ashtanga should be practiced with sincerity, humor and joy. She completed her 200h-teacher training (TT) at Ashtanga Yoga Paris and is near the end of an additional 300h-TT at the same school. Surya is grateful to have learned about the 8 limbs of Ashtanga from senior teachers. She dedicated time to study with Lino Miele and Sharmila Desai in India. Happy to be able to share her knowledge and experience with kindness, clarity and utmost respect for students and their background, she looks forward to being a life-long student herself.
