I had really bad back pain started slowly( I was 33 y o) then with time gotten worse by the time I was 37 y o couldn’t sleep at night and I am not an idiot to go to hospital so I started ashtanga yoga at home using my iPad didn’t go to any classes. Well after my back pain went away forever with my flue and other things that used to bother me now even my flues lasts only couple of days ☺️ I’m 47 now still doing yoga and I love it ❤

One day I received a particularly disturbing phone call from my boss while I was at home. I played my yoga video and did the full hour and a half. Upon finishing I felt I could cope with anything coming my way. The sense of wellness, harmony and happiness was so overwhelming that to this day, I remember it as one of the best of my life.

This practice is my morning ritual. I feel so alive afterwards. The moving meditative journey is hypnotic and a mental clarity. It’s an absolute full-body/mind high. Exhilarating. It has saved my body, mind, soul from the inner turmoil I’ve experienced the majority of my life. I am 32, and almost a year of consistent practice has completely transformed me. I hope to study in Mysore one day with R. Sharath Jois. “The teacher will appear when the student is ready.” I practice and pray every day that that day will come soon 🙏🏼 😊 Happy practicing, my fellow yogis!

Yoga is the practice of connecting the body with the mind to achieve being in the present with concentration and focus for inner balance of the five primary elements and the balancing of yin and yang or Shiva shakti. It's a conversation with God.

When Maty and Chuck opened Yogaworks on Montana, I began my morning in Chuck's class, primary series. Hard to believe I actually do all those poses. Was fortunate to do my teacher training with Maty and Lisa Walford. I am celebrating 40 years of teaching yoga this year thanks to the many fantastic teachers I was able to study with. Maty 's aura was so bright that she graduated life early from this incarnation. I am forever grateful to have been one of their 1st generation of students. Nothing nowadays can come close to that level of authenticity. Thank you .

Such a gift to find this vintage primary series video with early influencers. I came to yoga in 1998, discovered Ashtanga in 2001 and became a teacher in 2003. I had the good fortune to take several workshops with Jois in the early 00’s. So much has changed since this was shot with the popularity and glamorizing of this ancient practice. Coming across and experiencing this in all simplicity brought the light back with roots.

[@anonymom66]

Wow, this brings back so many memories. In the 00s, after the birth of my second child, I started practicing Bikram yoga. I was naturally flexible so I progressed very quickly and soon grew bored of the same 26 poses. Yoga blogs introduced me to Ashtanga. At the time there was only one Ashtanga teacher in Atlanta, John Meredith, so I began practicing with him. I still remember the very first class i took 'Intro to Primary'. My arms have never been so tired and sore. But I was hooked. I practiced reguarly with him for about a year and a half. The binds and bends came easily to me, but strength was always a struggle (as were mula bandha and uddiyada bandha!). I was able to jump in and out of poses, but never did I ever land as lightly and with such control as these yogis. I was just trying out second series when circumstances dictated that i had to return to full-time work. The studio was about thirty minutes away from my house, and full Primary takes about an hour and a half, so practicing with John was pretty much a half-day commitment which I was unable to sustain. I switched to distance running with yoga at home as a supplement to my running. I tried to keep up Primary at home, but with two young kids and without the yoga community, I just couldn't. Fifteen years later and I have lost much of my flexibility due to running injuries and frozen shoulder after an injury at the gym. But watching this lovely practice brings back all the good memories of that time in my life.

[@catherineshaw1122]

The Bikram 26 pose class is the beginner's class. He learned from Ghosh, and Ghosh also had an intermediate and advanced level series. Tony Sanchez has resources to teach them all. But to say the 26 pose class was boring so you had to change to another school is odd. It's the same as Ashtanga yoga primary series in that it's where one starts, but more levels do follow that.

[@madeleinegrayson8372]

I know your comment is old, but having dealt with frozen shoulder I know how painful and frustrating that is. For me, what worked was getting back to Ashtanga, because the sun salutes opened up the chest and shoulders. My frozen shoulder was a result of collapsing into my chest when I slept on my side. The muscles had shortened. By stretching the chest, the problem disappeared. I hope this helps someone.

I am in love with❤️Ashtanga, although every day I feel it’s new. Perhaps this is more of a daily practice of internal (ethereal) flossing, releasing/cleaning out the hidden tarter of conditioned programming/downloads of the emotional & mental reactions to life, that have built up over the years, keeping ourselves stuck in old patterns.

[@Bleh75549]

If all this looks unbelievably advanced and something you could never do, take heart. I started out not being able to do much of anything, but after years of astanga I could do 98% of what you see here as well as these guys do it. The key is practice 6 days a week, eat very little, and cut out running and other activities that tighten muscles. No form of yoga will make you flexible and strong faster than astanga. On the other hand, you must know how to practice to avoid hurting yourself, which is a real possibility with this yoga.

[@Searencia]

Why eat very little?

[@jathondelsy]

Yoga is a gift from God to mankind. Through Yoga practise, anyone can work towards physical, mental, moral and spiritual perfection. This video demonstrates a form of Hatha Yoga, which is a physical form of Yoga involving stretches, balances, and other physical challenges. This type of Yoga is probably the most familiar to the general public, although there are many other types of Yoga, such as meditation, Pranayama (control of breathing), and chanting. In fact, anything can be Yoga, if it is done yogically, that is with full concentration on the present moment and action, full devotion and humility, and no thought for the future results. Yoga as such is the true religion, and all religious practises have aspects of Yoga integrated within them. A particular method of Hatha Yoga is shown here, call Ashtanga Yoga. This is perhaps the most vigorous and arduous of Hatha practises. It aims to stretch and flex all parts of the body in all directions. As practitioners advance, it introduces difficult internal muscle controls, breathe controls, a reining in and control of the senses, until the whole being is poised and controlled, including the mind, which is stilled and one pointed. Dedicated and determined practise of this Yoga give a strong lithe youthful body which is never over muscular or disproportionally developed. The lungs breathe deep and strong. The cardiovascular system is smooth and steady. Digestion and elimination is rendered quick and complete. The senses become acute. The mind becomes sharp and concentrated, and memory is steadily improved. The practitioner gradually realises his or her fullest potential. I send my love and respect to the late great guru featured in this film, Sri K. Pattabhi Jois, and to his guru Sri Krishnamacharya, who both together created this ingenious system. Let us practise fully and daily and all is coming.

Ashtanga is at the root of original yoga pracitice and a very disciplined routine. For most, the primary series will suffice for the rest if their lives, and that is wonderful. Part of our practice is letting go of comparison and developing your practice for yourself and improve for yourself. Pattabhi Jois and many of his compatriots in India will not allow you to continue beyond Surya Namaskar it your form and breath is without mastery. The Astanga series, in its disciplined and most pure form, is very demanding, esp as performed here with demonstration of palms together and high dristi.

I tried this everyday on my 3rd week now after one and half year of practice the Video of Praniti almost similar to this video and I manage to do half 🤣😂🤣🤸🏻‍♂️of the whole session

[@kauri1234]

Shella caayupan 👏 good job ,keep practice

[@shalleyram]

Perfect!!

[@MujerVirtuosa0318]

La mejor clase que e visto en mi vida...la ago y la ago me encanta me fortalece todo el cuerpo la disfruto aunque es pesada, claro no la e podido terminar llegó Alós 40 minutos apenas pero se que algún día la podré realizar completa sin dificultad ese es mi proposito❤

[@aakashsanatani8367]

Sure, i also started but i am very young so for me its easy because i practice yoga since childhood i love its feel like you are in air no weight and full of happiness inside

[@aro-rat]

This just popped up to remind me to go back to yoga. So beautiful 🙏

[@VedicAshtangaYog]

बहुत ही सुंदर अभ्यास और और इसका क्रम इस अभ्यास को देखकर समझ में आया कि योग में पेशंस कितना जरूरी है

[@srinivasanj929]

This was one of the best yoga i have seen, thanks to my young yoga guru to share this video 👏 Big Namaste to Sr. Pattabhi Jois !

[@v.e.tstephens5020]

Thank you for this video posting. Its good to see Americas best Ashtanga Yoga teachers as then were then and now. Sri Jois was a master guru of guru's.

[@gideonfyah1]

Natalie, this practice happens over time. So, if you start slowly with modified positions and transitions it's VERY pleasant and relaxing. Joyful even. In my opinion, if you aren't smiling you aren't doing it right.

[@RocLobo358]

This is a great video to show you perfect form. I think my next practice will be much much better after having seen this. I don't think I'll get to their smoothness but my attention will be in the right places

[@oschhoch3]

Started with yoga today. Thanks universe for guiding me to yoga

Prranams !! the beauty f yoga - Gift of Bharat tot he world

[@theindianmoor1]

AMAZING! So beautiful! Amazing what the human body is capable of.

[@lizmedrano286]

Wow, what discipline these practioners have. I have attempted this practice many times and each time is different. Today a feeling of frustration over came me as I was not as strong as other times but with persistence and dedication all is possible! I will aim at making this a consistent, if not daily practice! Thank you for the upload, metta and namaste 🌹

[@cHovecHe21]

Tnx a lot for this video! It's really helpful for beginner primary level practitioners, such as myself, to see exactly how fluid changes in postures are and how they are done more easily.

[@pranavdsheth7617]

Guru ji has trained them very well and hats off to the Yogis and Yoginis here.

[@kellyhopewatts1]

Awesome free Mysore class. Better instructions then going to a studio that does not guide you through the practice. And this is free! Awesome. 👧🏻☕️

[@D77798]

Kelly Watts for us it's free from since time immemorial , passed on from one sage to another and to masses. At 4 i joined group of kids who were trained by our guru for free for few years. The first gift i received from my dad was a book on yoga at 8. For me it's look so odd to see how it's been commercialized. 40 EUR / hour !!?! For one session... that too by those who just treat it like a gymnastics.

[@ASMRyouVEGANyet]

@@wildpassport that's not racist at all...

[@iahelcathartesaura3887]

ASMRyouVEGANyet? No its not racist. It's an observation and an accurate one. That is a sad trait of much of white culture. (Btw I am of pure Aryan features, and pure Aryan ethnicity except for part Cherokee. I have observed thus trait of my ethnicity since early childhood sadly.)

[@iahelcathartesaura3887]

sriram seshadri I believe this to be a trait from the fallen angels envy esp wound up in white groups more than others? Read the Book Of Enoch? Peace and wholeness to you.

[@Sylphadora]

I don’t find this video very instructional. Yes, I see them doing the poses but there’s a lot to be broken down about each pose and there’s no explanation about the correct form

[@Bavarian-ko9il]

The best yoga vdo I have come across ☝

[@paulramsey2346]

watching this video I have learned more than I have in my Moksha yoga class. Moksha yoga, Canada has got it all wrong. Now I know what commercialization of yoga means.

[@ganeshaholisticcenter9752]

Bendiciones!!

[@glossonj5371]

I know of other places that have it all wrong too. I had to walk of a class when we were instructed to do jumping Jack's with rubber bands around our ankles... the "teachers" making it up as they go along. Needless to say... but I'm saying it... I was asked to not come back.

[@TheJanakulkarni]

And it's sad very sad that the word yoga is used to describe asanas

[@lindsayh7283]

@@TheJanakulkarni isn't yoga partly about the asanas?

[@officialyinhomeyogallc]

Namaste. This is incredibly inspiring and has rejuvenated me.

[@ashdelight3628]

Om namah Shivayah. Im goin to do this everyday. Tysm for the upload dear

[@rachierich8015]

Imagine how much strength this hour requires! 😮😮😮

[@barshaha]

The flow, alignment, grace, strength, flexibility and coordination 😮🔥🔥 wow! Just Wowww!

[@vinayakwarkar8518]

This is master class asanas,They all are well trained but it possible to do like this type of yoga in the beginning.

[@vinayakwarkar8518]

I want to start it from beginning so pls any one can guide me to where I can join this type of class from the beginning.

[@katashley1031]

Richard Freeman did some wonderful videos for starting a practice.

[@Stephychungsvlogs]

I’ve learned so much from this demonstration. 😊 thank you 🙏🏻

[@martinr2040]

So little muscle mass, so much strength in the body! Amazing ❤

[@jannytang2536]

Thx for sharing, it is really precious !!

[@TraceTaylor]

Thank you Adam Wade, Pattabhi Jois & students here💖🙏🏼

[@madhudhanai4830]

Today I practiced till 42 after that i feel like better to do it tomorrow as most of the twists will come after immense practice... But I'm happy that i can do till 40 and this is my second time practice with this video... 1 and a half year back I was not able to do 15 mins practice with this😇

[@babakitty9311]

Exactly the same point for me too so I just watched the rest! So inspired to study their transitions and breathing but my body needs to learn to cooperate more.

[@airetnemer]

Este Video es excelente!!! Hice asthanga en el Yogashala de Chile y ahora lo estoy retomando en un pueblito de Venezuela que no tiene soporte, así que es de gran ayuda, GRACIAS!!!. This video is a great gift, thanks!

[@jamesfirehummer3216]

this demonstrates the sanskrit roots of english words such as the numbers.

[@juliasantosmoura1298]

The practice is mostly being narrated in English by the guru, with his very distinctive accent. The influence of Sanskrit is basically only on loan words, such as maharajah.

[@jamesfirehummer3216]

@@juliasantosmoura1298 so, like, sanskrit speakers used the western/english number words, but sanskritized them?

[@sanjaysarkar1551]

As a new asstanga practitioner this video is priceless for me. There is still a lot to learn.

[@katashley1031]

This is a marvelous demonstration but it's not ideal as a beginner source. Hopefully, you also have a live teacher or a beginner video with actual information.

[@inhalebriiex]

Excellent work, well done
