Programa de Mysore Ashtanga Yoga en Playa Pelada

Mysore Ashtanga Yoga

Ashtanga Yoga estilo Mysore es una clase en la que cada estudiante practica a su propio ritmo dentro de un entorno grupal. El maestro trabaja 1 a 1 con el estudiante, lo que permite un enfoque individualizado, considerando las habilidades y necesidades únicas de cada estudiante. No se necesita experiencia previa para comenzar una práctica de Mysore. Todos los niveles son bienvenidos.

En esta práctica sincronizamos el movimiento dinámico usando la respiración, la postura (asana) y los puntos de enfoque visual (drshti). Al centrarnos en estos tres aspectos, trabajamos para volver continuamente al momento presente. A medida que el cuerpo se fortalece y la respiración se vuelve más estable, la práctica del estudiante crece lentamente. Esto permite que cada estudiante practique a su propio ritmo y se desarrolle de una manera sostenible y enriquecedora. El maestro en la sala de Mysore es una guía y un espejo, que provee al estudiante un espacio en el que se sienta seguro y apoyado mientras emprende su propio viaje personal hacia el autoconocimiento y el crecimiento.

Patañjali Yoga Sūtra (1.14) nos dice que la practica solo será una base solida si se practica con devoción, de forma continua y bajo un largo periodo de tiempo. Este es un aspecto fundamental de nuestro trabajo conjunto.

En las clases de Mysore la comunidad es el corazón de la práctica. Nos apoyamos e inspiramos mutuamente al presentarnos como grupo todos los días, pero cada uno de nosotros en su propio viaje individual.

Mysore Ashtanga Yoga is a self-paced practice within a group environment. The teacher works 1-on-1 with the student, allowing for an individualized approach to learning yoga, considering each student's own unique abilities and needs. No prior experience with yoga is necessary to start a Mysore practice. All are welcome.

In this practice we synchronize dynamic movement using breathing, posture (asana) and gazing points (drshti). By focusing on these three aspects, we work towards continuously bringing ourselves back to the present moment. As the body strengthens and the breath becomes steadier, the student's practice slowly grows. This allows each student to practice at their own pace and develop in a way that is both sustainable and nurturing. The teacher in the Mysore room is a guide and a mirror, holding a supportive and compassionate space for the student as they pursue their own personal journey towards self-knowledge and growth.

Patañjali Yoga Sūtra (1.14) reveals to us that by cultivating a consistent practice, over a long period of time, and with reverence, the student's practice will become firmly rooted and stable. This is a foundational aspect of our work together.

Community is at the heart of the Mysore Ashtanga practice. We support and inspire each other by showing up as a group each day, yet each of us on our own individual journey.

Linda is grateful for the opportunity to share Mysore Ashtanga in Nosara and strives to co-create a welcoming space to support us as individuals navigating through life’s many challenges, while also nurturing our souls.

Spiros Antonopoulos is a yoga instructor, occultist, tea-maker, astrologer, and designer. In the early 1990s, Spiros began studying yoga, meditation, and chanting through a hermetic magical order based upon the work of Aleister Crowley. He began learning the Ashtanga Yoga method in 1999, and his practice deepened considerably in 2001 when he met Pattabhi Jois, Saraswati Jois, and Sharath Jois while studying and apprenticing with Eddie Stern at the Broome Street Ganesha Temple in New York City. After several extended pilgrimages to India, Spiros began accepting offers to teach. In 2015, he was invited to launch a still-thriving Mysore Ashtanga program at Yoga Souk in Beirut, Lebanon. In 2016, he was authorized to teach Ashtanga Yoga by Sharath Jois. In 2017, he opened the Los Angeles Yoga Club (a sister school to Eddie Stern's Brooklyn Yoga Club). Today Spiros travels, studies, and teaches.

Recursos ~ Resources for Visiting Students

Parenting is often referred to as the 7th series of Ashtanga Yoga. Parenting can push and stretch us in ways we may have not previously thought possible. It is challenging to maintain a consistent practice once we become parents. We want to give everything we have to these precious little beings and the list of things to do gets longer. As a result, our Sadhana can easily get pushed aside.
