4 Week Intensive Course — Hands-On Adjustments

Learning hands-on adjustments as part of the Ashtanga Yoga method. It is important to learn how to adjust students in a subtle, mindful, and supportive way, as well as understanding the right approach when assisting your teacher.

A beautiful part of the learning process—developing sensitivity, awareness, and confidence in how we support each student in their practice.

Discover the Hidden Gilis of East Lombok 🌺

Far from the crowds, the Gilis of East Lombok offer a peaceful tropical escape surrounded by crystal-clear water, colorful coral reefs, and white sandy beaches.

From Gili Kondo and Gili Kapal to Gili Bidara and Gili Lampu, these small islands are perfect for snorkeling, swimming, kayaking, and relaxing under the sun while enjoying incredible views of Mount Rinjani in the distance. 🏝️

Traditional fishing boats connect the islands to local Sasak villages, where visitors can experience authentic Lombok hospitality and fresh seafood by the sea. 🐠

Unlike the busier tourist spots, the eastern Gilis remain quiet, natural, and beautifully untouched — ideal for travelers looking for tranquility and genuine island culture.

Backbends with block support can be very helpful, especially if you practice Ashtanga, surf,where the spine experiences compression from paddling, or spend many hours sitting at a computer. They help create a feeling of space and expansion. 🧘‍♀️🧘‍♂️
Do backbends with blocks create expansion between vertebrae?
What they do:
Encourage spinal extension
Hydrate and nourish the discs through movement
Reduce muscular guarding
Improve thoracic mobility (which many of us lack)
Decrease compression caused by sitting or stress
The “space” you feel is mostly:
Release of tight fascia
Disc rehydration
Better distribution of extension (instead of jamming into L4-L5)

Let’s continue with our sequence to release tension in the middle and upper back and shoulders. This posture targets thoracic spine mobility and helps counteract a rounded upper back and protracted shoulders. Maintain the position for 10 to 20 steady breaths, emphasizing length through the spine and softening across the shoulder girdle with each exhale. This is particularly beneficial after surfing or prolonged periods of sitting at a computer. Observe sensations carefully and move out of the posture slowly. 🧘‍♂️🙏

Hi everyone,
I’m starting a simple movement sequence to help you slowly improve spinal mobility and release stiffness — especially in the upper and middle back and the shoulder girdle.
All you need is a wall and a daily commitment 🙏
This is great if you spend long hours at the computer, surf, or do any sport that builds tension in the upper body.
Try it out and let me know how it feels in your body 🤍

In Memory of Sharathji
The first time I went to Mysore to study with him, I was filled with excitement and a little nervousness. I studied the counts carefully, hoping not to confuse myself. What I discovered was a compassionate teacher with deep wisdom and a magnetic presence. He was strict, yet kind, guiding each student with patience and strength.
I feel deeply grateful to have learned from him and to have experienced the essence of the Ashtanga method at its source.

What is a Mysore class

Self-paced practice: Each student practices their assigned portion of the Ashtanga series, from the sun salutations through to the finishing poses. Beginners may start with a shorter practice, while advanced students work on more complex postures.

Personalized guidance: The teacher circulates through the room, providing hands-on adjustments, offering verbal instructions, or helping students progress to the next posture when they’re ready.

Open for all levels: Whether you're new to Ashtanga or an experienced practitioner, Mysore classes cater to everyone, with adjustments made based on each student’s needs.🧘‍♀️🙏🙏
