Hi!

All of the teachers you mentioned are great and valid

but if you want to learn Ashtanga, only Eddie Stern (

probably the closest to Guruji, Pattabhi Jois, the

founder of Ashtanga), Guy and Cristopher teach it.

 

Dharma Mittra has developed his own Asana sequence

(flowing like Ashtanga and lots of fun, but NOT

Ashtanga), Cindy Lee incorporates Buddhist teachings

and Yoga Works, well... What can I say?..has been

recently bought up by two 'corporate' guys so I am not

sure how that affect the teachings...

 

Ashatanga is traditionally practiced 5-6 days a week

so location might be a more burning issue: which Shala

is closest to you?

 

Try them all out and find your own teacher.... Always

the best way... I practice Ashtanga only because

Ashtanga teachers where my favorites...

 

 

Hope to have been of some help!

 

Namaste

Also Yoga Sutra is a new studio on 42nd and 5th across from the NY Public Library. Chris Hildenbrandt, certified by Pattabi Jois, runs the Ashtanga program...I think it is Yogasutranyc.com...OM, Shanti, Mary
