PRIVATE YOGA INSTRUCTION

I teach Yoga privately in two traditional formats, Ashtanga Vinyasa and Vinyasa Krama, as well as in a highly personalized modern vinyasa style.

The Ashtanga Vinyasa style was systematized by Pattabhi Jois, who studied with Sri Krishnamacharya from 
 1927 to 1929 in his own village, and then in Mysore from 1932 to 1953 . The Vinyasa Krama style presents the the postures as Srivatsa Ramaswami learned them directly from Shri Krishnamacharya during the period of 1960 to 1990.

All styles can be taught to any level of experience; as an introduction to the practice or as an opportunity to refine your existing practice. 

ASHTANGA VINYASA 

OF THE MYSORE PALACE

Picture
Study the Ashtanga Vinyasa primary series in a traditional format. We'll build a strong foundation for the practice through study of the trishtana or three pillars of the practice: breath, bandhas and drishti, and explore each posture with patience and care. Suitable as both an introduction  to the tradition or to refine your existing practice. 

VINYASA KRAMA

OF SRIVATSA RAMASWAMI

Explore the Vinyasa System as taught by Srivatsa Ramaswami, who studied with Shri Krishnamacharya longer than any other student. This style of vinyasa yoga presents the practice exactly as taught by Shri Krishnamacharya. Suitable as both an introduction  to the tradition or to refine your existing practice. 

MODERN VINYASA YOGA

PERSONALIZED SEQUENCING

A personalized Yoga practice crafted to your needs, helping you explore your edge while also creating the space for growth and healing. This can range from a therapeutic meditative session to a handstand workshop.  We will find the balance of effort (sthira) and grace (sukha) in every pose and craft a sequence you can continue to use at home.
