In this workshop-format class, practitioners will be given a beginners perspective on Ashtanga including traditional pranayama and fundamental postures. A great overview for new students to the practice or teachers that are curious about the style and want a framework for their students.

5 minutes - What is Ashtanga? What can this practice offer?
10 minutes - Ujjayi and applications within the Asana practice,
