Ashtanga
This is the Ashtanga “Primary Series”, a traditional fixed sequence of 41 postures that are linked together with transitional movements called “vinyasas”. In this class we practice three fundamental techniques: “bandas,” holding core muscle contractions; “drishti,” maintaining a specific focus point; and “ujjiye,” audible breathing. The Ashtanga Primary Series focuses on forward bends, twists and hip openers, it also employs a lot of upper body strength.
