Ashtanga Vinyasa with Rita (English)
A 60-minute English Ashtanga Vinyasa class with Rita, drawing on the Primary Series and offering adaptations for all levels.
Why it caught our eye
The class combines a recognisable sequence with breath and drishti, the yoga practice of resting the gaze on a chosen point. With adaptations available, visitors can explore the sequence at a pace that suits them.
About this experience
In this 60-minute Ashtanga Vinyasa class, Rita guides an English-language practice based on the structure of the Ashtanga Primary Series. Breath links the postures into a steady sequence, while drishti, or a focused gaze, offers a simple point of attention. Poses can be adapted, and all levels are welcome.
What you can expect
Move through a steady sequence of postures, coordinating movement with breath. Rita offers adaptations, and the class welcomes all levels. Drishti means choosing a point for the gaze as you practise.
