The program was developed by Jon Kabat-Zinn at the University of Massachusetts Medical Center. For more than 30 years, MBSR has been helping people to uncover their own inner resilience and to live with greater vitality and joy.

The MBSR program is based on techniques that cultivate body awareness, relaxation, concentration, communication, and self-reflection. Through weekly classes, instructor-led exercises, and regular home practice, you will develop a life-long set of skills that you can use to meet the difficulties of your life in new and productive ways.

Mysore Class

In 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 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.
