The Mysore Cincinnati program: one comprehensive yoga practice of individual pace and focus. The system of Ashtanga yoga taught using the traditional Mysore practice; supervised self-practice in a small group setting. Mysore style offers both privacy & community. Following a system set forth in Mysore India: all levels of students practice together at a personal pace, while learning on an individual basis. As a powerful study of focused breath and movement patterns, Ashtanga is for everyone as a daily, healing, therapeutic practice. The basis of teaching: ‘to teach what is appropriate for the individual’ utilizing the Ashtanga metric. The teacher provides step by step attention and gains familiarity with each student. Students in turn, get to experience the practice with their own undivided attention. Practitioners learn how to practice, embrace being a student, and advance at their own rate. Ashtanga is a tool for living wholly.

All great systems have rules and great students understand the benefit.  Morning practice is offered Sunday through Friday to promote a consistent daily practice 3-6 days/week, and can combine Shala + Home practice as needed. In lieu of casual practice, the traditional behest of routine practice allows students and teacher to get the most effective benefit together.
