No need to be “ready” or flexible to start Ashtanga Yoga – but you can expect your body to become stronger and more flexible with a regular practice
Do you feel like you need to do guesswork in your yoga practice, or never got a proper introduction or beginners course in yoga looking at important details? This is the one.
Start building a strong and structured yoga practice from the ground up. This 4-week series is perfect for beginners to start, or for you to come back after a break and reconnect with the foundations of Ashtanga Yoga in a small group setting.
Each session focuses on the building blocks in different areas of the practice, from breathing to movement and internal focus.
With this understanding you will gain more confidence in your practice, in your self, and be able to develop a life-long and sustainable yoga practice.
You will get personal feedback and guidance on how to develop healthy movement patterns for a potentially healing and very enjoyable practice – as well as space to explore and experiment with the practice.
Weekly focus
Week 1: Finding your breath and Sun Salutations A – Healing through movement.
Week 2: Movement with the breath – and stopping. The foundations for vinyasa.
Week 3: Sun Salutation B and standing postures.
Week 4: Hips, knees and body control – seated asanas.
Easy Start – Easy Continuation
Join these 4 Ashtanga Foundations 105-minute classes for 108€.

Yoga Students Are Saying
“It helped me create structure in my days and improve my energy.”
-MATHIAS
“Alex’s Ashtanga classes give me a good boost. He explains the poses clearly and keeps the vibe relaxed.
The workouts are tough enough to feel progress but never too much. I also like how he listens to us, he offers easier or harder versions of each pose and has a safe option if your knees (or anything else) need extra care.”
-KIMMO
“My stress-related symptoms have started improving.”

Focus: safe, structured, beginner-friendly teaching
When I started teaching in my late 20:ies, I was lucky that most of my students were about double my own age. I learned to adapt the teaching and the practice to all sorts of body types and different ages.
Having my fair share of knee pain and knee injuries as well, I just love to help all sorts of people finding the joy of the ashtanga practice, and helping developing an effective and safe practice.
