Ashtanga Yoga: Full Primary Series | Traditional Vinyasa Counting

Ashtanga Vinyasa Yoga is for you!
Kata is a Japanese word meaning “form”.
Usually, we hear the word Kata in reference to the choreographed movements within a martial art form such as Karate. When I was studying Shiatsu, we learned a specific Kata for the treatment of clients.
Kata is a Way of Doing, rather than rote repetition. This is an important distinction because Kata gives a Foundation that more easily lends itself to adaptation and spontaneity.
In the yoga world, we have a similar idea of organized form within the Vinyasa Krama method.
In Vinyasa Krama, each Asana has a set number of Breath-Coordinated Movements leading to the State of the Asana and back to the beginning.
For example, a Sun Salutation A Series has an “assigned” Vinyasa number of 9, meaning there are 9 breath-coordinated movements in the “A” Series. From there, each Asana Sequence follows a Specific number of Vinyasa.

About Your Teacher:
Hi! I'm Adarsh Williams and I've been practicing Ashtanga since 1998. After living in Mysore for the better part of 3 years, I received Ashtanga Authorization directly from Pattabhi Jois, and was upgraded to Level 2 by Sharath Jois in 2009. I've had many wonderful mentors and students along the way that have motivated me to keep improving in my teaching.
In this video, we practice a mix of 1st and 2nd Series Ashtanga that is user-friendly enough of a beginner, but offers the challenge that we love from the practice.
