August Ashtanga Weekend 2026: Full Vinyasa Led + The Bhagavad Gita Discussion on Obstacles
with Raili & Katia

Theme: Overcoming Obstacles using our Ashtanga Practise

with Raili Maripuu & Katia Major

Sun 23rd August: 8.30am - 12

It also includes a theory workshop and light refreshments. Using extracts from The Bhagavad Gita (often treated as Hinduism's foundational text on how to live) we will look at the theme of obstacles, both physical and in our minds. We examine how they can mirror larger experiences in our day-to-day life and how using things like community support and sharing can help us overcome them and learn a huge amount about ourselves.

The Ashtanga Intensive is open and accessible to everybody:

• Established practitioners wanting to go deeper in their practise

• Practitioners wanting to experience a 4-day consecutive practise

• Returning practitioners who have had a break and would like to return to Ashtanga practise

• Complete beginners interested in starting the Mysore-style self-practise
