Taught by Maya Deshmukh.

Interested in learning ashtanga yoga? We are offering partial scholarships this July to kickstart your practice and join our Mysore program.

Requirements: Attend Mysore-style practice every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday from July 1st-August 1st.

Mysore-style ashtanga is an individualized practice. To ensure that each student has the time and space for individual attention and instruction, this scholarship offer is limited to the first 3 students to sign up.

Why join?

Ashtanga vinyasa is a living tradition of yoga that is practiced according to the elegant logic of Krishnamacharya’s vinyasa krama framework, in a set sequence that progressively builds strength and mobility in the body as well as inner awareness and meditation on the breath.

In Mysore-style classes, each student is taught individually according to their unique needs and pace. Practice involves postures (asana), breathing practices (pranayama), chanting and meditation. The sequence of postures is learned progressively, and all elements of the practice are gradually integrated at a pace that is therapeutic for each individual student.

Ashtanga is for everyone! Ashtanga is accessible and adaptable for all bodies and all stages of life with the guidance of an experienced teacher. The only requirements are dedication and openness to learn.

About Maya: I started practicing yoga at fourteen, and it touched and changed my life profoundly and in ways I can probably never quantify. I started my first training as a teacher a few years later. I learned ashtanga yoga from my first teacher, Jonny Kest. I later learned ashtanga from Lisa Lalér, Stan Woodman, and many other excellent teachers around the world. At eighteen, I sat my first 10-day Vipassana meditation course. Together ashtanga yoga and Vipassana and anapana meditation are at the core of my practice and teaching. I teach the way my teachers taught me and am grateful to continue sharing the knowledge they have passed to me through this teacher-student lineage. Yoga is a deeply transformative practice, and its teachings unfold continuously if approached with curiosity, discipline, and joy. I try to practice and teach with that simplicity and practicality.
