Curious about Ashtanga Yoga but unsure where to start?
This four-week in-person course is designed for complete beginners and those new to the Ashtanga method. Taught in a relaxed, supportive setting, you’ll learn the foundations of this dynamic practice in a way that’s clear, accessible and engaging.
Each week we’ll build your knowledge step-by-step, with time to ask questions and guidance to help you practise at home between sessions.
You’ll learn to:
* Practise Sun Salutations A & B with confidence
* Understand and explore the key standing and seated postures
* Adapt the practice to suit your body and energy levels
* Breathe using the traditional technique (Ujjayi)
* Experience the Mysore-style approach to self practice
* Begin to understand the philosophy behind the Ashtanga system
By the end of the course, you'll feel stronger, more focused and ready to join our regular classes – or simply continue building your personal practice.
Whether you're brand new to yoga or returning after a break, this course offers a solid, inspiring start. And if you're already practising, it’s a great chance to reconnect with the essentials and refresh your understanding.
Why join this course?
* Small group setting (max 12 students) for personalised attention
* Weekly emails with simple at-home practice prompts
* A clear path into regular Ashtanga classes
* Down-to-earth, expert teaching
* A friendly space to start, whatever your current fitness or flexibility

Come exactly as you are. You’ll be supported, encouraged and challenged – in the best way.
