Mysore style is the traditional method for learning Ashtanga Yoga. In these classes, a relationship is built with your teacher and energy is shared between yoga practitioners of different levels. Each student works at their own pace with assistance and hands-on adjustment from the teacher as and when necessary. It is almost like a private lesson. The Ashtanga series is learned and committed to memory posture by posture. New postures are then added as and when the student is ready. No prior yoga experience is necessary. All you need is the willingness to grow and learn through the practice. It is best to be consistent so that the sequence comes naturally. There are no specific start times for classes. When first starting to learn the Ashtanga yoga system, you will probably need to allow about 45 minutes, building up to about an hour and a half once a full series of postures is being practiced.
