The new equation for the future of Ashtanga Vinyasa Yoga is to end traditional codependency in yoga and to shift the holding of the sacred fire of yoga to the individual practionier.

Ashtanga is evolving towards (or remembering) a new way of existing in energetic balance. I’m extending the invitation to examine, disengage and drop the belief that a student MUST be in the Mysore room 5 days a week, continually being seen and adjusted by a teacher, as a necessary requirement of mastering their body and their Ashtanga practice.

Refocusing the where the true power of Ashtanga stems from, the practitioner. A teacher who recognizes the power of the student becomes someone who provides information, maintains the integrity of the Ashtanga Method protocol while also holding the space for students to find their own affirmation, their own ok, their own Ashtanga practice.
