A new expression of Ashtanga Yoga<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Why a new series?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Active Series Ashtanga, designed by Paramaguru Sharath Jois, is a new, fluid and balanced approach to Ashtanga Yoga. It invites you to explore its profound benefits in a more accessible format, designed to fit naturally into any rhythm of life, while remaining in perfect harmony with the philosophy of yoga. Unveiled in November 2024, this series draws on decades of teaching and practice to offer an experience that combines breath, movement, and presence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cFor many years, I have wanted to develop a practice that offers the benefits of Ashtanga Yoga but is accessible to everyone, regardless of age or ability. Something that helps everyone stay active, calm, and focused, and that can be practiced at home.\u201d \u2013 R. Sharath Jois<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Active Series is not a simplification or variation, but a new expression of Ashtanga Yoga. It is aimed at both people who want to (re)introduce movement into their lives and athletes from other disciplines who wish to develop greater flexibility, concentration, and breath awareness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThe Active Series is for everyone, regardless of age, whether they have been active or not. Athletes and former athletes would also benefit from a less intense practice, which would complement their routine with all the positive aspects of yoga, without disrupting their regular training. These days, many people, especially young people, suffer from depression and other stress-related issues. Incorporating the Active Series into your daily routine can help keep your mind sharp, relieve stress, and stay physically healthy, positive, and focused. Covid and its impact have made me realize this more clearly than ever.\u201d \u2013 R. Sharath Jois<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What is the Active Series?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ashtanga Yoga is an ideal way to maintain good physical and mental health. However, traditional practice requires years of dedication to perfect. And often, we hesitate to take the plunge.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Designed to fit into today’s busy lifestyle, the Active Series offers an accessible, fluid, dynamic, and grounding practice, with deep work on breathing and alignment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
