-When Practice Becomes Sadhana-

A focused retreat for
discipline, clarity and depth.

This retreat is for students who want more than a few strong morning classes. It is for those who wish to understand Ashtanga as a living method: breath, bandha, drishti, sequence, alignment, adjustment, philosophy, and steady self-practice.

01

Build Self-practice


Establish a stronger independent practice through Led and Mysore-style guidance, correction, and repetition.


02

Study the System



Understand Tristhana, Primary Series structure, vinyasa count, breath mechanics, and the inner logic of Ashtanga.


03

Refine Alignment


Establish a stronger independent practice through Led and Mysore-style guidance, correction, and repetition.


Core Elements of the Retreat


Each module is taught through direct practice, demonstration, discussion, and hands-on observation. The content is deep, but the language remains practical and grounded. Students receive a 50-hour certificate on completion of the retreat.

A closing session on inversions, restoration, the Eight Limbs, Mangala Mantra, Q&A, and integration of the Ashtanga practice into daily life.

Creative short sequences

A practical session on creating intelligent Vinyasa sequences by linking posture, breath, intention, and yogic integrity.
