EVERYDAY ASHTANGA WITH SCOTT

Ashtanga emphasizes a unique kind of yogic breathing called ujjayi pranayama. It’s unique because it can be done during asana (posture) practice, and when you come into class, that’s what we’ll be doing. We’ll be practicing. If you’ve never done Everyday Ashtanga, you’ll hear the ujjayi, and maybe something will click. We’ll give you an instruction sheet. It won’t make much sense, but if you keep coming, you’ll get it. We also talk after practicing. That helps. (NOTE to ashtangis: This is not “Mysore” Ashtanga. It’s more like what David Williams was doing back in the 70’s).

Yin yoga is a gentle, slow-paced postural yoga practice where poses are held for extended periods of time. Three-minute holds are not uncommon. Most yin yoga poses are seated or supine. The sustained traction of yin yoga reaches deep connective tissue, stretching and stimulating fascia, tendons, and ligaments – especially when muscles are not engaged. With muscles relaxed, the connective tissues around joints can be accessed without interference at a deeper level, allowing them to be remodeled and revitalized.

The Art of Meditation course offers a way to open and deepen perception and develop a wise relationship with the nature of experience. Cultivating present moment awareness imbued with courageous honesty and radical love is the foundational practice. It works against our habit of wanting to be distracted - of not wanting to meet life as it actually is - of looking outside ourselves for something to ease our pain and suffering. This practice allows us to experience the precious gift of being alive - it helps us feel into our physical, mental, and emotional experience and feel more connected to life itself.

COMMUNITY ASHTANGA

Like new skool ashtanga, community ashtanga is a postural practice that links breath and movement in a dynamic sequence of poses. We follows the primary sequence of postures - about 75 incredible poses that are repeated during every practice session. Each posture is held for a certain number of breaths (about 5) and includes transitional movements into and out of the poses. However, in community led ashtanga, there is no authority per se who’s “authorized” to officiate the group practice. Instead, we facilitate communally, with multiple practitioners offering sequencing and alignment cues during practice.

New skool ashtanga emphasizes the joy of practice - the creativity, love, and self-realization that’s cultivated in an atmosphere of infinite possibilities. New skool ashtanga includes subtle energy experiencing not only through linking ujjayi breath with a dynamic sequence of asanas, but also through pranayama that punctuates particular parts of practice.

FALL EQUINOX SUN SALUTATIONS WITH KRISTIN

FALL EQUINOX SUN SALUTATIONS WITH KRISTIN

On Sunday, September 22nd, we’ll be honoring the Fall Equinox with a special sun salutation practice at Community Yoga Center. We hope you’ll consider being part of this seasonal event.

Practicing cycles of sun salutations with mantra is a beautiful yogic practice of offering gratitude for the light-giving force of the sun and recognizing the gift of life itself. It is a practice of reverence and commitment, and a special opportunity to connect in community.  

Practicing a lot of sun salutations cycles (like 108!) can be an act of tapas. The Sanskrit word “tapas” can be translated to English to mean “heat causing change.”  Practicing tapas involves purposely staying in the crucible of intense experience until its wild flames die to embers – embers that carry the potential to spark alchemical transfiguration.

Tapas recognizes the reality of suffering and asks us to willingly bear adversity to open to greater insight. It knows that sometimes we’re unaware of our own capacity unless we’re challenged and discover a force within us powerful enough to match the adversity we face. Practicing sun salutations in this way can be a kind of challenge that asks us to meet it with enough inspired passion, fortitude, and patience to willingly (and even enthusiastically) endure intense experience.

If you’re interested in welcoming intense experience in this way - as a part of the whole of our human experience, please consider practicing sun salutations with us on the Fall Equinox. It invites us to connect with a fierce kind of grace.

Yin yoga is a gentle, slow-paced postural yoga practice where poses are held for extended periods of time. Three-minute holds are not uncommon. Most yin yoga poses are seated or supine. The sustained traction of yin yoga reaches deep connective tissue, stretching and stimulating fascia, tendons, and ligaments – especially when muscles are not engaged. With muscles relaxed, the connective tissues around joints can be accessed without interference at a deeper level, allowing them to be remodeled and revitalized.

EVERYDAY ASHTANGA WITH KRISTIN

Ashtanga emphasizes a unique kind of yogic breathing called ujjayi pranayama. It’s unique because it can be done during asana (posture) practice, and when you come into class, that’s what we’ll be doing. We’ll be practicing. If you’ve never done Everyday Ashtanga, you’ll hear the ujjayi, and maybe something will click. We’ll give you an instruction sheet. It won’t make much sense, but if you keep coming, you’ll get it. We also talk after practicing. That helps. (NOTE to ashtangis: This is not “Mysore” Ashtanga. It’s more like what David Williams was doing back in the 70’s).

COMMUNITY ASHTANGA

Like new skool ashtanga, community ashtanga is a postural practice that links breath and movement in a dynamic sequence of poses. We follows the primary sequence of postures - about 75 incredible poses that are repeated during every practice session. Each posture is held for a certain number of breaths (about 5) and includes transitional movements into and out of the poses. However, in community led ashtanga, there is no authority per se who’s “authorized” to officiate the group practice. Instead, we facilitate communally, with multiple practitioners offering sequencing and alignment cues during practice.

THE ART OF MEDITATION WITH KRISTIN

The Art of Meditation course offers a way to open and deepen perception and develop a wise relationship with the nature of experience. Cultivating present moment awareness imbued with courageous honesty and radical love is the foundational practice. It works against our habit of wanting to be distracted - of not wanting to meet life as it actually is - of looking outside ourselves for something to ease our pain and suffering. This practice allows us to experience the precious gift of being alive - it helps us feel into our physical, mental, and emotional experience and feel more connected to life itself.

New skool ashtanga emphasizes the joy of practice - the creativity, love, and self-realization that’s cultivated in an atmosphere of infinite possibilities. New skool ashtanga includes subtle energy experiencing not only through linking ujjayi breath with a dynamic sequence of asanas, but also through pranayama that punctuates particular parts of practice.
