WITH SOME MOVEMENT PRACTICE

Ashtanga Yoga is a style of yoga in which the students practice a set series of poses broken down into multiple series. Once one series is mastered, the students move on to the next one. This however does not happen overnight as even the first (primary) series is a challenging movement practice in and of itself. In led classes, we flow through the entire primary series together, at the instruction and count of the teacher. This format is a useful addition to the traditional Mysore way of practicing, as it allows you to refresh the count and breath cues in a group setting and challenges you to stay in asanas for longer than you would normally count for yourself. This is a very physical class, with little to no theory. No music is played.

Mysore is the traditional way of practicing Ashtanga Yoga. In this setting students arrive and start practicing independently within the given time window offered for practice. The teacher will be there to guide you through the sequence, as well as support you by way of adjustments and verbal cues. As Ashtanga Yoga is based on practicing the same sequences for a longer period of time, after a few weeks students are able to flow through the class independently, opening space for a deep level of concentration and meditation in movement. This class includes only verbal cues directed to individuals, it is therefore optimal should you prefer less talk and no music in your practice. It is traditional in the sense that the sequences are not modified and taught in the way they are taught all over the world, it is however highly adaptable to individual needs considering the personalised attention the teacher is able to give each participant. A very physical practice, with little theory and an incredible potential to grow.

Ashtanga Open is our signature style and represents an easeful take on the traditional Ashtanga Yoga method. These classes are built on the sequences practiced in Ashtanga Yoga, but they are modified to bring further accessibility to the practice. In some cases this means that variations are offered to the poses, in others it means that the pace is changed to fit the students’ needs. We also like to incorporate strength drills and other exercises that provide variety of movement. Although somewhat more playful and versatile than Ashtanga Led classes, these classes are also physically challenging. There are more explanations to the individual asanas, but similarly to the other Ashtanga formats, there is little to no references to spirituality. Music would only be played occasionally, e.g. to support the final relaxation sequence.

Yin Yoga is a relaxing class where poses are held for some minutes. The asanas in this class are restorative, and are usually more focused in flexibility than strength. The class can be challenging in a very different way than our other classes, in that holding poses and working with what comes up in your mind through this stillness can be difficult at times. Music is a big component of this class, with a selection that fosters deep relaxation.

This popular style of yoga stems from the USA and represents a specific take on Vinyasa yoga. The sequences vary from class-to-class, there are however elements that you will recognise that are always present. Jivamukti Yoga works with a so called focus of the month, which can be yoga-related, but can also be something more broad. There is usually a connection between the class itself and this focus, if you therefore wish to explore how you can bridge movement practice to different aspects of your life, this is a good class for you. Music plays an important role in these classes.
