Pranayana Ashtanga Yoga is a well-established yoga studio located in Langport, offering energising and strength-building Ashtanga Vinyasa and Power Yoga classes. The studio is founded on the principle of starting where you are and doing what you can, emphasising individual progress and growth.
The studio offers a variety of classes and workshops to cater to different levels of experience and fitness. One of the unique offerings is the Charitable Half Primary Series Ashtanga Yoga class, which takes place on Thursday, 11 January 2024. Participants have the opportunity to support a good cause by making a donation to the Royal National Institute of Blind People (RNIB), a UK charity providing support to individuals with sight loss. The class is designed based on a simplified half Primary Series Ashtanga Yoga sequence of poses and includes an additional challenge of practising blindfolded.
It is suitable for students who are familiar with yoga practise and expect to engage in physically demanding poses.
In addition to the Charitable Half Primary Series class, the studio also offers a 2nd Half Primary Series class, which takes place every Thursday at 7 pm. This class focuses on practising the Primary and Intermediate Ashtanga Yoga sequence of poses, and each week's session shifts the focus from strength to flexibility and targets different muscle groups. Suitable for beginners and intermediates, this class allows students to work at their own pace while gradually progressing through regular practise.
For those seeking a more personalised approach, the studio offers one-to-one and private group classes. These sessions provide individual attention, allowing for customised instruction based on personal goals and needs. Whether one is a beginner looking to learn the fundamentals of yoga, someone with injuries or illnesses requiring modifications, or an experienced yogi looking to deepen their practise, these personalised classes provide the necessary support and guidance.
Pranayana Ashtanga Yoga conducts its classes at Langport Town Hall on Bow Street in Langport, Somerset. Students are advised to bring their own yoga mats and additional props such as blocks and belts if using. The studio encourages pre-booking due to limited spots and offers various payment options, including drop-ins, gift vouchers, and a 10-class pass.
At Pranayana Ashtanga Yoga, students can expect a nurturing and supportive environment that promotes physical and spiritual growth. The expert teachers guide students through the practise, helping them develop strength, flexibility, and balance while fostering a mindful connexion to their bodies. With a focus on individual progression, Pranayana Ashtanga Yoga is committed to providing a holistic yoga experience that benefits the mind, body, and soul.
