At The Mysore Shala we teach yoga as it is taught in India, without false Western sweeteners that end up turning it into a mere fitness or, even worse, a simple pastimes. We believe in the profound transforming and healing power of yoga, which will undoubtedly range from your most physical part (the health and integrity of your body) to the subtlest and deepest levels of existence such as mental and emotional.

You don’t need special qualities. If you feel your body rigid and not very flexible, if you find it difficult to concentrate, you are especially welcome. We are going to teach you little by little. The first sessions will last a little more than half an hour and will progressively increase their duration. It is a gradual and steady process. Ashtanga Yoga is a method spread all over the world and extraordinarily effective. But do not expect miracles in the short term. Ultimately everything depends on your perseverance and personal responsibility to attend classes continuously and regularly. At first, if you don’t have much time, you should try to come at least twice a week. And with time, according to your possibilities, increase the number of days of attendance. It is obvious to point out that the more you come to class the more you will be able to experience the countless benefits.
