new shala location and schedule

it is my pleasure to let you know that as of monday, 31 august 2009, we will be teaching from a new space and expanding our schedule of classes!

our new shala will be devoted primarily to offering ashtanga yoga classes in the tradition of our beloved guruji, who passed away on may 18, 2009.

we are excited to be expanding the morning mysore-style classes… the new schedule will be from 7am – 12pm… you may arrive at any time from 7am onwards, as long as your finishing postures and relaxation are completed by 12pm…

we are also pleased to finally be offering evening mysore-style classes from 6pm – 9pm… you may come at any time from 6pm onwards, as long as your finishing postures and relaxation are completed by 9pm…

we are offering a mid-day led class on tuesdays and thursdays from 2:30pm – 3:30pm for those of you wanting a lunch-time class…

and we are adding a sunday led class from 10am – 11:30pm to our schedule…

we will also have an introduction to ashtanga yoga workshop the last weekend of each month from 12pm – 2pm for anyone who is a beginner to yoga or interested in trying ashtanga yoga…

i am very happy to have an excellent team of teachers and assistants to offer the highest quality of teaching in barcelona: damien de bastier, nick fenn, bruno amaral, tere castillo, veronica fernandez, and myself… between us, we have many years of practice and teaching experience with the added good fortune of numerous years spent practicing in mysore, india with guruji and sharath… we also have their blessing and authorization to teach, in addition to the new level 2 teaching authorization…

i look forward to seeing you all in class soon… i thank you all for giving me the opportunity of fulfilling my vision to offer an ashtanga yoga shala in the tradition of guruji to the barcelona community… without you, the practitioners, there would be no shala… i look forward to guiding your practices and continuing this journey of self-realization and self-healing with you in the years to come…
