Mysore Classes with Dan Boyne

1 Feb

Mysore Class at Majestic Yoga Studio

For the next four weeks, beginning on February 3rd, Dan Boyne will be leading a Mysore style Ashtanga yoga class every Tuesday and Thursday morning, 7-8:15 am.* For those unfamiliar with Mysore classes, students work on a set series of asanas and move along at their own pace, assisted by the instructor. No experience is necessary, but a commitment to show up for all of the classes is highly recommended for those who wish to progress. The cost for the 8 classes is $120.00. (please note: the 2 week new student unlimited pass cannot be used in this class). Drop-ins are $17.

The value of learning the Ashtanga series is multifold. First, the student will learn a traditional series that allows for the cultivation of self-practice; second, over time, the set series allows the student to focus his/her mind on the development of more subtle, internal aspects of yoga.

Dan’s approach is to have students cultivate an awareness of breath, movement, and internal focus so that the series resembles a moving meditation.

*students may stay longer if time allows.

Dan Boyne has studied and practiced mind/body disciplines for over twenty years, beginning with several years of martial arts training including Tai Chi and Chi Gung. He has studied yoga for a decade, attracted primarily to the Ashtanga tradition and the following teachers: Richard Freeman, Manu Jois, Baron Baptise, and Mimi Loureiro. He has also studied with Arthur Kilmurray, Barbara Benagh, Paulie Zink, and Ana Forrest. Dan teaches an eclectic “vinyasa” style practice, where creativity and fun are encouraged along with a sense of proper alignment. He is also a level II Reiki Practitioner
