What is Ashtanga?
Ashtanga is a traditional and disciplined style of yoga that follows a specific, rigorous sequence of postures synchronized with the breath. It is a physically demanding practice designed to build internal heat, purify the body, and cultivate a "moving meditation."
Here are a few key points to include in your class listing:
Fixed Sequence: Practitioners follow a set series of poses (starting with the Primary Series) that remains the same every time, allowing for a deep focus on mastery and internal awareness.
Vinyasa System: Movement is strictly linked to the breath, creating a continuous, rhythmic flow that builds strength, flexibility, and stamina.
The Five Elements: The practice emphasizes Ujjayi breath (ocean breath), Bandhas (energy locks), and Drishti (focused gaze) to steady the mind and manage energy.
Internal Heat: The vigorous nature of the transitions is designed to produce "tapas" (heat), which aids in detoxification and muscle suppleness.
