Yoga

In Mysore-style Ashtanga Yoga classes, participants work through a fixed sequence of poses at their own pace and ability level while the teacher provides one-on-one guidance and instruction as needed. Participants may come and go as they wish during the scheduled class period and practice for as long as desired. In this format, students memorize the sequence of postures and transitions bit-by-bit over time, learning to cultivate a meditative practice focused on their own breath.

Tuesday Evening Class. This class is also offered on Mondays. The Active Series, developed by Sharath Jois, was derived from a traditional Ashtanga Yoga practice. It retains all the benefits of the traditional method, emphasizing the link between movement and breath, but includes new more accessible postures for a wider range of students in a modern age and setting. Taught by CSC’s John Bultman, students from all levels will be able to participate in a non-intimidating inclusive setting.
