Do you struggle to stay accountable to your Ashtanga practice when your teacher is away?
This week we’re talking about why it feels so hard to show up on our mat when our teachers aren’t here, and some tips on how to stay consistent.
Don’t Blame the Mirror
There are some people out there who vehemently oppose Ashtanga, it’s method and postures. They do so for a variety of reasons, and this week on the blog I’m making the case that it has nothing to do with Ashtanga.
Check it out, and let us know what you think!
You Don’t Need To Do Fancy Asana to Have a Deep Practice
You don’t have to do tick tocks, or kapotasana to feel like you’ve worked your ass off in your practice. This week we’re covering three “basic” Asanas, that when done correctly can challenge your practice and build strength.
Why Ashtangis Should Practice Abhyanga
I have started doing something that has seriously changed the game for my practice, and my life – daily self-massage or Abhyanga as it is called in Ayurveda.
In this article I’m sharing all about how Abhyanga can support not only your practice, but your health and how to do it.
The Power of Primary Series
You may not know this, but the Primary series of Ashtanga Yoga is called “Yoga Chikitsa” in Sanskrit which means, “Yoga Therapy.” In this post we’re going to discuss why it’s so important to practice primary series correctly, under the guidance of a qualified teacher.
