ashtanga yoga How to do Mysore?

[Guest guest]

Hi Marianna, that's a good point. I still havent gone over to a

mysore class but yeah, it probably seems more intimidating than it

is. Like i said, at one point i did have them memorized, and it

definitely felt like the practice was really my own, like i was part

of it, instead of feeling like i would never feel natural in it.

forced to figure out what comes next enabled me to commit the

postures to memory very quickly. In my experience, most teachers just

require that you know the first two sun salutations and are happy to

help w/ the rest.
