Mysore style is a form of self-practice and is the traditional method of learning and practising ashtanga yoga as taught in India by Sri K. Pattabhi Jois. With some knowledge of the asana (posture) sequence, the student practices with his/her own rhythm within a group environment. This allows the teacher to work with students individually giving personal guidance according to their needs and abilities. When the student is ready to progress, new postures are introduced to your practice. As ashtanga yoga is a precise system, each student is encouraged to memorise the sequence and develop a commitment to personal practice. Beginners and experienced practitioners are welcome.
