EVENTS & WORKSHOPS

What we practice in the courses is only part of what Ashtanga Yoga is all about. That’s why I regularly teach the Basic-Stuff Workshop. On the one hand, it is about the origin, the meaning and the practical tools for deepening your practice (Pranayama, Tristana, Vinyasa, etc.), other basics worth knowing and my personal view of the Ashtanga Yoga system: a basic understanding of Ashtanga Yoga.

The prerequisite for participation in the workshop is only an existing, consolidated and independent Mysore practice of at least the Fundamentals.

Participation fee: 50,00€

We focus on the 3 components that are important in every backbend: strength, technique and your individual anatomy including flexibility. (What this workshop is definitely not about: Pressing yourself into a particularly deep backbend…)

Contents:

→ What actually makes a really good backbend?

→ Why not only the back plays a role, but also shoulders, abdomen and hips,….

→ The interplay of power, technology and flexibility for a stable bridge

+ Stretching exercises to prepare for the bridge.

We will look at a selection of these asanas: Urdhva Dhanurasana (definitely), Urdhva Mukha Svanasana, Shalabasana, Dhanurasana, Ustrasana, Laghu Vajrasana, Kapotasana.

Cost:

• 30,00€ for members
• 50,00€ for non-members

The workshop is dedicated to the first half of the first series: Utthita Hasta Padangusthasana to Janu Sirsasana C. We also go into the handstands, as well as the jump-back and the jump-through.

In this workshop, we will deal with the correct alignment of the individual asanas and discuss possible variations if an exercise cannot (yet) be performed correctly. You learn to adapt the practice to yourself and not to emulate a perfect fit – the focus is on individual execution. We combine these intensively with the principle of movement (Vinyasa): The connection of asanas in a special way.

In this workshop, we will also dedicate ourselves to the system of Tristana: Breathing (Pranayama), energetic closures (bandhas) and points of view (drishtis) should accompany your practice more and more over time and eventually become a natural part of it.
