The Ashtanga Vinyasa yoga beginners course is designed to provide our new students with the fundamental foundations of yoga. Our intention is to introduce you to the health-giving and joy-bringing powers of yoga. We truly believe that yoga helps us discover our incredible self-healing faculty, bringing more balance and joy to our daily life.
Ashtanga vinyasa yoga is a moving meditation method of Hatha yoga, which involves synchronising the mind and the breath with a progressive, dynamic series of postures. This process produces intense internal heat, that detoxifies muscles and organs. The goal of the practice is to make every breath, every movement a conscious one and to establish a meditative flow, withdrawing our senses, calming the mind and moving with grace, strength and mindfulness.
We keep this course intimate with a maximum of 10 students and welcome novices to yoga and those who are new to the Ashtanga Vinyasa yoga method.
The course will be led by Irina Pashkevich Bourdier, the founder of Iriness. Visit the About page for more information about Irina.
The course duration is 4 weeks and includes ~20 hours of theory and practice:
We recommend attending the regular classes twice a week to help your newly acquired knowledge settle in your mind and body. But we will allow 5 weeks to complete all 8 classes, if need be.
