    assists in Ashtanga yoga. With years of experience guiding

The Space Between - Workshop on Transitions

  • Transitions in yoga are just as important as the postures themselves. They connect the practice, build strength, and cultivate mindfulness. In this workshop, we’ll uncover the secrets to making your transitions light, controlled, and seamless.

    Here’s what you can look forward to:

    • Breaking down key transitions like jump-backs and jump-throughs step by step.

    • Techniques to build the strength, flexibility, and awareness needed for fluid movement.

    • Harnessing the power of breath and bandhas to find lightness and stability.

    • Exploring modifications and progressions to meet you where you are.

    Whether you're a beginner curious about the mechanics or an experienced practitioner ready to refine your flow, this workshop will guide you to move with confidence, grace, and ease.

    Get ready to transform the space between the poses into an inspiring part of your practice.

The Next Step: Unlocking the Intermediate Series

  • The Intermediate Series, also known as Nadi Shodhana (nerve cleansing), is a transformative part of the Ashtanga Yoga system. This sequence works on purifying the nervous system, building strength, and cultivating flexibility, both physically and mentally.

    In this workshop, we will:

    • Break down key postures from the Intermediate Series, focusing on alignment, technique, and modifications.

    • The energetic power of Nadi Shodhana and its role in cleansing and rejuvenating the mind and body.

    • Discuss how to approach the Intermediate Series safely and sustainably, respecting your individual practice.

    • Deepen your understanding of transitions and the role of breath and bandhas in this more advanced sequence.

    This workshop is ideal for practitioners who are ready to move beyond the Primary Series or are already working with Intermediate postures and want to refine their practice.

    Come prepared to challenge yourself, expand your understanding, and take the next step in your Ashtanga journey with care and intention.
