Ashtanga Vinyasa Krama
This 20hr training over two days, take us back to the roots of the Ashtanga Vinyasa
Krama practice, and by extension modern day Vinyasa practices.
The immersive weekend designed for dedicated practitioners and teachers who want to deepen their understanding of Ashtanga as a living, intelligent system — rooted in breath, sequencing (krama), and tradition.
Drawing from the teachings of Krishnamacharya and the classical Ashtanga lineage, this training explores how vinyasa, bandha, drishti, philosophy, and chanting work together to support both personal practice and sustainable teaching.
While the full immersion is recommended, select practices are open for drop-in attendance, allowing students to experience Ajay’s teaching.

A bit about Ajay:
Ajay started practicing yoga at ten years old with BNS Iyengar at the Shri Pathanjala Yoga Shala at Parkala Mutt in Mysore; where he soon discovered he had a passion for yoga. He has been teaching Ashtanga Vinyasa Yoga for the past fourteen years. Under his supervision, students gain the strength, stamina and flexibility to move through the asanas. He has the ability to work with a wide range of individuals, from complete beginners to advanced practitioners. Ajay’s first priority is to guide the student through the physical aspects of yoga asana. From there the foundation is set for the other limbs of Ashtanga Yoga. Ajay teaches his students with sensitivity to their body and his adjustments are gentle and precise. Ajay is particularly concerned with alignment and correct posture and guides his student to this end. His aim is that his students reach their full potential. Alongside his teaching Ajay is currently studying a Advaitha Vedanta in Sanskrit at the University of Mysore.
