Ashtanga Yoga, Yoga Chikitsa (Therapy), is a powerful ancient vinyasa based yoga that increases flexibility, strength and aerobic capacity while healing and detoxifying the body. Through a systematic approach, students are guided to develop a personal (Mysore style) practice to address their specific needs.

Breath awareness, alignment and the internal therapeutic components of this system are emphasized. All levels of practitioners, even those new to yoga, will benefit from this dynamic practice.

A sub-culture within a sub-culture, those practicing Mysore-style Ashtanga are a breed apart. Self-led and up for the challenge of deep inquiry into the impersonal self and body, practitioners of Mysore are the genuine spiritual warriors in the yoga realm.

Michael brings decades of therapeutic bodywork to his adjustments, and leverages his knowledge of anatomy as well as his background in Vipassana meditation to provide his students with an energizing, educational and peaceful experience. Intense, light-hearted, demanding and joyful, these classes are not to be missed.

Practice at your own pace to avoid injury and heal past injuries
Create harmony and resonance within yourself to share with others
Awaken the master within, tap your inner wisdom and dispel false beliefs
