Free Friday Cancelled Today
Due to unforseen events Free Friday is cancelled today. We are experiencing plumbing problems in the back of the studio leaving both the bathroom and kitchen inaccessible/unusable. We are currently addressing the issue and hope to have the plumbing repaired and functioning again in a timely manner. Sorry for the inconvenience. We appreciate your understanding.
In addition, BIG NAC Music Festival is quite lively downtown this weekend and with all the fantastic commotion associated with the various shows in our area parking near the studio is quite limited. Take advantage of this unique event – get out and enjoy live music, dancing, and the company of good people.

The term Ashtanga yoga originates in Patan- jai’s Yoga Sutras that describe the eight-limbs of Ashtanga yoga. These include yama ( socially oriented moral observances), niyama (personally oriented observances), asana (physical postures), pranayama (breath control), pratyahara (sense withdrawl), dharana (concentration), dhyana (meditation), and samadhi (peace). The actual asana practice of Ashtanga yoga comes from the life and teaching of Sri K. Pattabhi Jois, who dedicated his life to the dissemination of this ancient lineage.
Join Jade Skinner as she shares the teachings of Ashtanga Yoga and her passion for this beautiful practice with you. Be introduced to the history and tradition of Ashtanga Yoga as it is taught today. Learn about the three aspects that distinguish its methodology from other styles of yoga. And grace yourself with the magical beauty of Mysore Practice.
