I did a little bit Ashtanga (with a teacher) before going to AYBRC. Here is realised how incorrectly I was doing a lot of the postures, even the easier ones. I had a lot of corrections which may feel frustrating however, to avoid injury and to keep a daily practise, I needed to build up my strength, learn correct postures, focus on breathing, bandhas etc. Radha and Prem will work with you to create a strong base and you will progress you once you are ready. Invaluable experience.

Quality instruction and attention to detail. Best to stay long term as you may be invited to make subtle but powerful changes to the way you practice. A lot of emphasis placed on how you practice rather than adding poses and getting to some perceived goal.

The Shala is in a beautiful outdoor environment, during the rainy season when Dengue is prevalent it is important to wear some sort of repellent. I left with many bites and may have gotten Dengue there, it’s impossible to know because there is Dengue everywhere during rainy season. I am updating my review because after a year I see that the information Rada was trying to communicate was actually valuable. I was very attached to Kapo and she didn't want me to do it. A year and CTscan later it seems she was right. I was probably doing more harm than good.. You are not always ready to meet your teacher.. Hindsight is 20/20

This ashtanga yoga shala is fully submerged in nature, with kind, knowledgeable principal teachers as well as visiting teachers. Highly recommended the morning mysore classes and immersion trainings. Shuttle transport and parking for motocycle available.
