Daphne @Syzygy
Daphne embarked on her Ashtanga yoga journey in Asia in 2006 under the guidance of Alexander Medin in Hong Kong & Bella Lipat in the Philippines. She initially trained to teach the Sivananda traditions whilst opening up a first-of-it’s-kind yoga studio in her hometown with her business partner. Daphne became sufficiently inspired by the positive effects of her practice as a yoga instructor and her own personal yoga inquisition to undertake her first formal yoga training in India in 2009. She then expanded her ancient practice modality in Thailand, conducting a Traditional Thai Massage Therapy course in Women’s Healthcare before her big move to the UK in 2010. On her move to London, Daphne retained her yogic journey in the traditional yoga lineage, attending asana classes, pranayama and kirtans at Satyananda Yoga Center and Sivananda Yoga Vedanta Center whilst continuing with her on-going Ashtanga practice and study, taking specialist Teacher Training courses and workshops under the Ashtanga vinyasa method.
Daphne extends gratitude to all her teachers past and present, and continues to study in her favoured areas of interest to add depth to her knowledge for her own internal nourishment and to share it with other practitioners.
Description
A mix of traditional Sanskrit counted Primary Class and English counting whereby, the teacher calls out the names of the poses both in English & Sanskrit name, along with the counts, and the students move together, in sync with the counts and step-by-step instructions.
This is a led class which reinforces the proper vinyasa system – when to inhale and when to exhale as you enter in and out of each asana. Following the teacher’s pace and count instills discipline and helps build both mental and physical strength of students. Participants will be guided through the initial sequence of poses in a manner suitable for all ages and levels of physical fitness and will aim to cover half of the poses in the Primary Series.
Ashtanga yoga is a form of practice that cultivates and harnesses the healing power of synchronizing breath with movement. This class is a great way for beginners to establish a practice. No previous knowledge of the Ashtanga Yoga system is required to start the practice. Suitable for students who are committed to build a strong foundation of this yoga system and eventually who are able to dedicate a self practice over a long period of time.
Class size is limited to allow for more individual attention.
