ashtanga yoga beginner

[Guest guest]

When we were in Mysore, we decided to continue our

studies with B.N.S. Iyengar. He has practiced yoga for

over 60 years, studying under T. Krishnamacharya in

the 1950's. He has been teaching Ashtanga Vinyasa Yoga

for the last 17 years, has vast knowledge of Yoga

Philosophy, and is able to share the theory behind the

practice, and the deeper, more spiritual aspects of

Yoga.

 

Classes are offered in Asana, Pranayama, Mudra, Kriya,

and Meditation. And you may receive a lesson in Yoga

Philosophy at any time while studying with Mr.

Iyengar. When we were there classes were held from 6

am to 9 am, and from 4 pm to 7 pm except moon days.

 

If you are interested take a rickshaw and inquire at

the Sri Bramatantra Swatantra Parakala Mutt Yoga near

Jagan Mohan Palace We paid $100.00 per month. You will

usually meet people that can tell you more about other

teachers like Sheshandree, places to eat like The

Three Sisters. And shared, inexpensive lodging. And

yes, you should be able to learn the primary series in

just one month.

 

We stayed in the heart of the city. One month at

Chandra Palace Hotel. One month at Bombay Hotel, which

I liked better, it was quiet. These places were

conveniently located, not very expensive, and clean.

We were able to walk to the Shala, the market, and a

lot of other places.

 

Most of the people in Mysore are vegetarians. While I

love Indian food, the veggies are cooked to death.

After a couple of weeks, especially with a practice

like Ashtanga, I found my energy running low. So at

least once a week we took advantage of the buffet at

the Southern Star Restaurant at the Quality Inn for

the salads.

 

There is a lot to do in and around the city. Also some

incredible places to visit for the afternoon. Or when

you have a moon day and have the advantage of an extra

day take the public bus to places like the Tibetan

Settlement in Bylakuppe. If you are interested I am

happy to share more. Just reply directly to me at the

email address below.

 

Otherwise Good Luck. And Have Fun. It is quite an

experience.
