Additionally, this workshop is enriched with key exercises to deepen one's relationship with Bandha (energetic locks) and Vinyasa (breath & movement).
All concepts will be intricately knitted together with references from renowned yogic texts making for a vivid expression of the sweetness that is the Ashtanga method.
