Ashtanga Vinyasa is one of the classic forms of asana practice that brought yoga to America. It's still thriving today, thanks to the tireless work of its students and lineage-holders. This class will move you through a modified form of Ashtanga's Primary Series (the first sequence students begin to learn), which features Sun Salutations, followed by a rigorous set of standing and balancing poses and many deep, unusual postures. Note to experienced Ashtangis: this class modifies several of the most extreme moments of Primary Series, and does not include headstand, shoulderstand, or the Kurmasana section of the series. If you have learned these poses in-person from a skilled instructor, feel free to add them into your practice!

Jack Cuneo shines a respectful, devoted light on this practice: "Ashtanga Vinyasa was my initiation into yoga. I am not exclusively devoted to the style, but I hope my love and experience with it comes through and benefits you. Because the Ashtanga Vinyasa system is deep and precise, if you enjoy my Ashtanga classes, I highly recommend that you seek out a Certified or Authorized teacher to learn this practice in a traditional way!"

Can you take care of yourself as a yogi, even if you cannot carve out an hour or more every day for your practice? The answer is yes. Challenge gravity without straining your schedule by working in some quick core strengthening with this class!

Skilled movement professionals now know that your core is much more than the rectus abdominis, the "six-pack" or "crunch" muscle. This class includes the rectus and also squeezes in movements targeting the stabilizing transverse abdominis, the internal and external obliques, and the stabilizers along the back and in the shoulders that support integrative core function during everyday activities.

Flow through standing and balancing poses on your way to handstand - twice! Prep your shoulders, core, calves, and hamstrings, then practice hopping with both feet AND the classic kick-into-splits shape. This quick class is perfect for the morning or an afternoon energy boost.

Inspired by the Ashtanga Vinyasa Primary Series, this class will open your entire body and guide your awareness as you prepare for Kurmasana (Turtle Pose). Along the way, you'll practice standing poses, twists, arm balances, hip openers, hamstring stretches, and more.

Your muscles are not straight lines - they wrap around your skeleton in complex and interrelated spiraling patterns. Begin to develop sustainable strength with an emphasis on your legs and core in this quick, technical and action-packed flow.

The sequence is designed to integrate and awaken your body's strength potential with a combination of classic yoga postures and bodyweight calisthenics. You'll work the muscles all around your upper legs and hips, then add the smaller stabilizers of your feet and lower legs and even your core and the long muscles running up and down your back. Once awakened, these chains of movement help your body generate outstanding power in all of your activities.

Travel far from the land of traditional yoga postures and explore foundational animal movements. Why? Because not only will these movements develop your strength and mobility very quickly, they’ll also help you improve your motor skills, your coordination, and your ability to move efficiently in complex ways while retaining a clear mind.

One important note: many - though not all - animal movements are quadripedal, meaning you will travel across the floor using both your hands and feet. As a result, this sequence and many like it will challenge your wrists and shoulders. Be conscious of your capacity and you'll ultimately gain much greater strength and resilience in these areas!

It's not uncommon for human beings in the modern world to find themselves with their bodies stuck in one place - often behind a computer screen or the wheel of a car - and their minds in many places - unable to focus on what really matters.

This class is a technically accessible and physically challenging reminder that both achievement and peace can often be found by allowing our bodies to move in many ways while keeping the mind in one place. Expect detailed and subtle alignment instruction, challenging flows and balancing sequences, arm balancing, twisting, and backbends culminating in Wild Thing and Urdhva Dhanurasana.
