ASHTANGA YOGA & YOGA NIDRA

During this weekend course, Alex will be guiding you through two longer ashtanga yoga led classes, consisting of the Primary Series and a few easy and beneficial poses from the Intermediate Series (second series). After the asana practice, you will be guided in a relaxing Yoga Nidra session (meditation in śavāsana).

Beginners are welcome, and accessible alternative poses will be demonstrated when needed.

For Alex, it’s important that yoga is practiced is a calm and meditative manner, where the breath plays the most central role. Furthermore, it’s important to him that the practices are taught in a safe, healthy and effective way for each student. As a yoga teacher it is important to understand that all people are different, and certain yoga postures and practices are simply not suitable for everybody.

BEGINNER REQUIREMENTS

Alex loves teaching new students. We will not have time to cover all the fundamentals of the practice during this weekend, but this is not an obstacle for you to join this weekend. Instead of learning everything little-by-little and step-by-step, just follow the instructions, copy, breathe and have fun 🙂 You will get lots of insights into the practice, and Alex will help you in the practice when needed.

Please be prepared for a physical yoga asana practice, and as a beginner, the “Welcome and introduction” on Saturday is mandatory, where we will be covering the breathing technique and a few fundamental principles of the practice as a quick recap before we start.

This weekend is truly for all levels of practitioners.

SPECIAL CLASSES: LECTURE, PRANAYAMA & CHANTING

This weekend workshop also includes special classes with: lectures, discussions, pranayama practice and chanting. We will be studying together a few selected sutras from Patañjali Yoga Sutras, and some selected verses from Hatha Yoga Pradipika, and the Bhagavad Gita.
