We got “Down Dog” with David!
Another Teacher Training and Ashtanga Weekend with David Swenson is done!
Olly and David Swenson
We have had the honor of practicing with and learning from David Swenson here at PURE for many, many years. His dedication, humor, knowledge, and experience are truly second to none - especially when it comes to Ashtanga Yoga.
Thank you to EVERYONE who came out this past week and weekend(s) to try something new, hone your skills, and connect more deeply with your practice!
We Stretched, Inverted, Twisted, and EVERYTHING in-between!
Whether it was the Primary Series, Intermediate Series, or one of David’s specialty workshops (like “Breath, Bandhas, and Pranayama”), we hope that everyone who attended was able to get a taste of something new AND something familiar. Exploring new things while simultaneously building upon a strong foundation is at the core of all modalities here at PURE. If you attended a workshop, we encourage you to keep practicing your skills through our led Ashtanga and Mysore classes (find them on the schedule here in Austin and here in Dallas)!
The bravest among us attended David’s entire Ashtanga Teacher Training:
The group pictured below immersed themselves in 40 hours of Ashtanga Primary Series teaching technique over the course of the past week in order to lead future yogis through the practice. We were thrilled to make some new friends, as well as watch many familiar faces take the plunge. No teacher training is “easy” , but it’s always worth it!
