Mysore with Kellie Kitson

Mysore style class, is open to all levels including beginners! The mysore style class is one-to-one teaching in a group setting. Overtime students become more independent with their practice as the teacher dedicates more of their time to new or beginning students. Each student is taught primarily with hands on adjustments and verbal guidance. Every student practices within the Ashtanga tradition and works with the teacher to define what is the right amount of practice for them. The sequence is learned progressively over a period of time appropriate to each individual. Beginners can expect to spend between 30 to 45 minutes in the studio at first, with that time gradually increasing as more of the sequence is learned.

Self-guided practice is the way to internalize your awareness and deepen your experience and understanding of yoga. The Mysore classes are the format for dedication, devotion, and discipline to unfold with regular practice. (The start time for Mysore classes is open; as long as you finish your practice by the end time, you may arrive at any time.)

Ashtanga Enriched: VINYASA FLOW with Melissa Wasserfall

This class allow people to explore the vinyasa system in changing sequences guided by the teacher enriched by the Ashtanga method.  The format of each class will vary, some might begin with gentler movements to warm up the body while others might look at other styles of Sun Salutations or the traditional Ashtanga sequence to open the body. These classes are designed to explore your body, breath and mind differently in each class. Suitable for all levels.
