At the end of the day #ashtangavinyasa is a discipline. That’s why people that commit to the practice see a lot of progress in their asana. Just like people who commit to the discipline of balet or gymnastics see a lot of growth in their respective routines and moves. In order to progress in any of these disciplines we must first understand the foundations. In order to get good at spelling I need to learn the alphabet. In order to get good at dynamic asana I must understand the foundational asanas first. I see so many students rushing to the “fun” parts of the practice without clearly understanding the building blocks, stuck trying to unlock the same pose for years. What’s lacking is discipline. Of course the physical poses is just the beginning. Once you start to cultivate discipline for your physical practice, that discipline starts to seep in to other areas of your life. Want to stars cultivating some discipline? Come practice Ashtanga Vinyasa with me @ahanayoga! Monday, Wednesday, Friday 10:30-12pm. Tuesdays & Thursdays 6-7:30am! All levels welcomed. No experience needed. 🙏🏻❤️‍🔥 by @yoginicolas

Super excited and grateful to announce I’ll be starting a Mysore Program at @ahanayoga We’ll begin with two classes, Tuesday & Thursday mornings from 6-7:30am starting Tuesday September 8th. I’ll be practicing beforehand, so if you already know the sequence, you’re welcome to come early. As the program builds, we’ll add more classes!

Mysore is a self-paced practice where I teach you asana one-on-one, helping you progress through a set series of asanas that build on each other, linked together by the breath. I’m deeply passionate about this practice — it’s been my refuge and outlet for the past 10 years, while also helping me cultivate the discipline to develop deeper healing practices. I completed my 200hr training and a two-year apprenticeship (over 2,000 hours) with Miami Life Center, and I studied in Mysore with Sharath.

That said, I’m non-dogmatic — I won’t hold you in poses “just because,” and I’ll never force you into a pose while telling you it’s “just sensation.” My goal is to help you progress through the sequence at a pace that makes sense for you, and more importantly, to help you cultivate discipline and the inner fire that Ashtanga Vinyasa lights within.

Hope to see you soon at Ahana! DM me with any questions 🙏 by @yoginicolas
