=== WHAT IS ASHTANGA YOGA MYSORE STYLE? ===
Mysore Style is the classical Indian Yoga teaching method. Individual tuition in small groups (10 – 20 practitioners) allows for cultivating an individual practice and “inward-orientation” (pratyak-cetana) of your mind. The result is the exact opposite of the wide-spread (western) approach of “teacher-imitation”, which directs your awareness outwards and puffs up the ego. True yogic experiences cannot arise if you look away from the self. Try the difference and you’ll understand.
=== HOW CAN YOU LEARN MYSORE STYLE? ===
After a month of Mysore Style practice you will have escaped the boredom of flowery platitudes of copy-paste Yoga. But be warned: True Yoga needs method and dedication. Ashtanga is constructed to be challenging for your body, nervous system and ego structure. It’s all quite natural, just give us a call and we explain the details: +49.30.48496665.
=== YOU HAVE AN ASHTANGA PRACTICE? GO BEYOND! ===
If you know what you are doing you can simply join our Mysore classes any time. You will discover fascinating internal alignment tools which remove all major obstacles on your path with ease. Learn why mulabandha is not what you think and experience the true meaning of “advanced” in Yoga.
=== YOGA INJURIES? WHAT’S THAT?!? ===
“Asana practice is (...) not which ruins someone’s health” - Adi Shankara, ca. 8th cent. CE.
Both cause and solution for Shankara’s observation have not changed over the past 1200 years. Yoga injuries come from incorrect practice. Incorrect practice comes from incorrect teaching. Incorrect teaching is ignorantly serving the ego rather than the self. Injuries disappear when you stop re-injuring yourself. Your body heals within days when the cause of an
injury is removed. That’s your inherent nature. It is that simple. We will help you.
=== THE MEANING OF YOGA ===
The process of Yoga is a fundamental transformation of how you perceive the world and your own self. The only valid map on that path are the ancient yogic scriptures such as Yoga Sutra, the Bhagavad Gita etc. This is our foundation, even if it looks like a physical practice.
=== BECOME PART OF OUR COMMUNITY ===
It is an important goal for us to build a community of practitioners from all yoga traditions. Let us create an island of mindful people. Let us chat, discuss questions and make new friends. Let us reflect and support each other. Let us care for all beings. Let us take responsibility for our own blind spots and embrace change.
