This is the signature class of the School of Yoga, sequenced around a School-wide theme that changes weekly affording the participant a structured and consistent platform for achieving mastery of their practice, one pose at a time.
A peak pose is chosen every week to be worked on based on the weekly Theme, with each teacher in the School contributing his or her particular sequence that leads the participant gradually and intelligently into the safe and effective exploration of the pose.
For participants who are not yet ready for the full expression of the peak pose, preparatory or modified variations will be demonstrated, and for those ready to take it a step further, a harder option will also be offered to challenge and motivate.
Suitable for:
- All levels of experience seeking a moderate paced practice with more variety of poses that begin to challenge your strength and flexibility.
- No special pre-requisites are required to join the class, although if you are new to yoga it is recommended that you have a few month’s experience attending Foundation classes prior to starting Essential classes.
In his last trip to Ubud to conduct the 9-Day Intensive segment of his Yoga Teacher Training Course, Priyan met up with his teacher Burkhard from the Akasha Yoga Academy to share his yoga journey in an insightful discussion that explored his journey from architect to meditator to yogi.
