Ashtanga Vinyasa
with Tammy

Ashtanga Vinyasa is a dynamic, structured practice that guides you through excerpts from the Ashtanga Vinyasa primary and secondary series. The practice is done with synchronised breath, points of focus, and movement. This class draws from a set series of postures that build heat, strength, and flexibility, promoting a disciplined approach to yoga that cultivates both physical and mental resilience. Rooted in the principle of Tapas, or disciplined effort, Ashtanga yoga encourages commitment and dedication, helping to develop both inner and outer strength.

During this class, the instructor leads you through elements of the Ashtanga Series, offering guidance on alignment, breath (Ujjayi Pranayama), and Drishti (focused gaze). Ashtanga’s emphasis on Vinyasa, the flowing connection between poses, supports cardiovascular health, improves endurance, and enhances concentration. Research shows that the regular practice of Ashtanga can reduce stress, increase muscle tone, and improve overall physical fitness (Journal of Yoga & Physical Therapy, International Journal of Yoga).

While Ashtanga is often seen as a more vigorous practice, this class is open to all levels with modifications available, making it accessible to anyone willing to engage with the practice. It’s an opportunity to explore your personal edge, building strength and flexibility at your own pace, within a supportive and guided environment.

Participants frequently experience an increase in focus, a sense of accomplishment, and an overall uplift in energy levels. Ashtanga Led provides a structured yet adaptable practice that not only strengthens the body but also fosters a steady and resilient mind.

Whether you are looking to deepen your yoga journey, build physical strength, or simply explore the transformative power of a committed practice, Ashtanga Vinyasa invites you to connect with your breath, challenge your limits, and discover the discipline within.
