ASHTANGA
At Transform to Bliss, we offer practices, classes & workshops to bring you to your center, to your born state of 'Bliss', Ananda.
​
​
Ashtanga is a dynamic style of yoga with a set sequence of asana and a fixed order of postures. Each asana is preparatory to the next one slowly deepening the flow. This practice emphasises the link between movement, breath (Ujjayi breathing) and bandhas (energy locks).
The Primary series aims to detoxify and realign the body.
Although the practice is intense, it is accessible to all levels and practitioners.
Seeing the practice as a movement for body and soul to be fully and consciously present.
The approach, with adjustments, is soft and gentle and will show the benefits of this practice which is a meditation in movement’
