Ashtanga Yoga Manchester is a well-established yoga studio located in Manchester, New Zealand. Founded in 2013, the studio specialises in Ashtanga Yoga, offering a range of classes and courses for practitioners of all levels.
For those already familiar with Ashtanga practise, the studio offers a unique opportunity to deepen their practise in the traditional way, as practised and taught in Mysore, India. The studio holds a three-hour session every last Saturday of the month, featuring an hour of chanting and pranayama followed by two hours of Mysore style yoga practise. This session is ideal for those looking to enhance their understanding and experience of Ashtanga Yoga.
For beginners, Ashtanga Yoga Manchester provides a structured introduction to the practise through their Absolute Beginners Courses. These six-week courses are designed to slowly introduce students to the practise, background, and philosophy of Ashtanga Yoga Mysore Style. On completion of the course, students are well-prepared to attend led classes and engage in self-practise Mysore Style Ashtanga Yoga.
To ensure a smooth booking process, the studio has recently implemented a new studio booking system. All classes must be booked in advance, and the studio offers the option to book a block of six weekly led beginners classes or a six-week Absolute Beginners course. Details on Mysore classes will be added soon.
Ashtanga Yoga Manchester is committed to adhering to social distancing guidelines and ensuring the safety of its students. Class numbers are reduced to 14 people per class, and all classes must be booked in advance through the website. On arrival, students can choose whether they want to receive hand adjustments during the yoga sessions.
The studio recommends students to bring their own yoga mat to all sessions. While drop-in options are available for regular students or visitors familiar with Mysore style yoga practise, new students are advised to sign up for one of the introductory courses to receive proper guidance and support.
Ashtanga Yoga Manchester is conveniently located in Manchester and provides a welcoming and supportive environment for yogis of all levels. Whether you're a beginner or an experienced practitioner, the studio offers a range of classes and courses to help you deepen your practise and explore the benefits of Ashtanga Yoga.
