SUMMARY:David Swenson: Ashtanga Yoga Workshop Series in Tokyo
DESCRIPTION:Share this:Ashtanga Yoga Workshop Series in Tokyo\n  June 16-17\, 2018\n \nDavid will go through the details of building a strong foundation to practicing the Ashtanga Vinyasa Yoga System. He will elaborate on all aspects of the system in order to induce a sustainable understanding of the practice. \nPackage Pricing: ¥40\,000\n(Early Bird Package Pricing: ¥34\,000 until May 16) \nModule 1: ALL ABOARD THE ASHTANGA TRAIN\n Saturday\, June 16. 09:30-11:30\n¥7\,000 (Early Bird Pricing: ¥6\,000 until May 16)\nYoga Chikitsa: A Fully Conducted Primary Series Class\nThis class is designed for those already familiar with the First Series of Ashtanga Yoga. It will be conducted like a train ride that will continue flowing along all of the way from the opening sun salutations to the closing sequence. There will be time at the end of the flow to enjoy a deep relaxation. \nModule 2: FLYING FLOATING AND HANDSTANDING\n Saturday\, June 16. 13:00-15:30\n¥7\,500 (Early Bird Pricing: ¥6\,500 until May 16)\n A Fun-filled Exploration of Vinyasa and Arm-balances\nOne of the greatest challenges of the Ashtanga flow is the vinyasa. In this class David will break the vinyasa down into its components. He likes to refer to this as: “The Physics of Flight”. The class will also explore the elements of handstands and arm-balances. This will all be done through the avenue of partner work. There is always plenty of laughter and fun as well as a depth of information in this class. All levels may attend even if you have never done a handstand before. Alternatives are always given. \nModule 3: BREATH\, BANDHAS AND PRANAYAMA\n Saturday\, June 16. 16:00-17:30\n¥6\,500 (Early Bird Pricing: ¥5\,500 until May 16)\nExploring the Mantra of Ujjayi and the Mysteries of Energy Locks\nIn Sanskrit\, Man means Mind and Tra means to Free or Deliver. Therefore the word Mantra means to Free the Mind. There are many mantras in yoga such as Om\, Hare Krishna\, Om Namo Shivaya and a plethora of others. In Ashtanga Yoga the mantra is the sound of our breath: Ujjayi. There is no other sound more universal than breath. It is not tied to language or culture and is “chanted” from the first moment of birth. This class will focus on the mantra of ujjayi within asana practice as well as during pranayama. In addition to breath work the class will also explore the invisible world of Bandhas. We well attempt to gain greater understanding of these subtle yet powerful tools through interactive discussion as well as a series of practical exercises. \nModule 4: NADI SHODANA / A GUIDED TOUR\n Sunday\, June 17. 09:30-11:30\n¥7\,000 (Early Bird Pricing: ¥6\,000 until May 16)\nAn Introduction to the Intermediate Series of Ashtanga Yoga\nStudents should have a regular practice of the First Series in order to attend this class. There will be an introductory discussion of the dynamics inherent to the Second Series. David will then lead the class through a portion of First Series acting as a springboard into as much of the Second Series as seems appropriate. There will be a variety of options given for each posture in order to allow multiple approaches. \nModule 5: INVERSIONS\, BACKBENDS AND SITTING WITH YOUR BREATH\nSunday\, June 17. 13:00-15:30\n¥7\,500 (Early Bird Pricing: ¥6\,500 until May 16)\nFinding Stability When the World is Inverted and Returning Home to Breath\nThis class will turn your world upside/down in order to explore the dynamics of inverting the body through building a solid foundation from which to grow while also looking at the opposing forces at play in Inversions. Backbends will be redefined as front openings and sitting quietly will be explored as an active participation in self-exploration through developing a relationship with our lifelong companion\, breath. \nModule 6: EIGHT LIMBS AND DAILY LIFE\n Sunday\, June 17. 16:00-17:30\n¥6\,500 (Early Bird Pricing: ¥5\,500 until May 16)\nHow Does this Practice Apply Within the Context of Daily Living?\nUnderlying the mysterious and complex philosophy of Patanjali’s Yoga Sutras there is a truly profound simplicity that may be applied within the context of our daily lives. This class will discuss the Eight Limbs of Ashtanga Yoga and explore their applications within our day-to-day life. What is the use of Philosophy without real application? We may memorize quotations or stanzas from great writings but unless we can apply them within our life they are merely words spoken rather than knowledge realized. \nLocation details will be sent out upon booking confirmation. \nJune 18-24 Teacher Training at TYG\nJune 25-29 Mysore at TYG
