Mysore practice is the most traditional teaching method of Ashtanga yoga, named after the city in southern India where Ashtanga originated. In a Mysore class, each student practices their memorized sequence at their own pace while the teacher moves around the room providing individual guidance and adjustments.
This one-on-one learning approach gives everyone personalized attention. Teachers observe your practice, offer verbal cues or physical adjustments when needed, and teach new poses when you're ready. This progressive learning method ensures a solid foundation and prevents injuries from pushing too hard.
Mysore practice suits students of all levels, from complete beginners to those who've practiced for years. Beginners start with basic sun salutations, gradually building their practice. At Tapas Yoga, our morning Mysore classes create a focused and supportive atmosphere where every student can continue progressing on their journey.
