Building on the first workshop on Saturday May 20, Ricky will practice with students while calling out the choreography of the breath and movements without interruption at a moderate and steady pace.
This particular style of class allows students to see and feel the essence of the Ashtanga Vinyasa practice. We will end class with a sample of the Ashtanga Pranayama sequence (breathing exercise) that Pattabhi Jois taught directly to David Williams, who taught Ricky in 2009.
Must have 6 months vinyasa experience or able to perform sun salutations without trouble. All are welcome, you did not have to attend the workshop on May 20th to attend this session!
Save 15% if you purchase by June 10! No refunds will be issued.
