Do you feel really stiff ? And are you considering starting yoga, but are afraid that you are not flexible enough? Then this class is right for you. Yoga is not just for the supple - and in fact, you who feel more stiff can get a lot out of yoga. You just have to know how to work with the body.

For those of you, who have been practicing Ashtanga for a few seasons and would like to learn how to practice the series properly with a focus on the transitions (how to get in and out of the positions) and breathing.You will be corrected so that you learn the alignment of the body in the yoga postures. At the same time you will work with steadiness and flow.You will work up a good sweat and experience what it is like to be present in a meditative flow. You will learn the traditional Indian teaching method where one counts the transitions and the breaths. It is not a requirement that you can make lotus position as we show you the best modifications to the positions. The level is moderate / hard.
Self practice. You move through the series at your own pace and get individual guidance and corrections from the teacher. When you are ready, new positions are added. Some experience with Ashtanga Yoga is a prerequisite BUT you do not need to be familiar with the order of the positions to join. The course is taught in Danish, but English will be used if needed.
A trip all the way through the first series - from the initial sun salutes to the closing positions in a energetic flow. We will follow the correct vinyasa method as taught by Sharath and Saraswati at the KPJ Ashtanga Yoga Institute in Mysore, South India. Anyone with previous experience can participate. You don't have to be able to do the whole series, you can just take a break when we reach some positions you don't know. As the focus is the flow, there will be no deeper instruction for the individual positions, so this class is not suitable for beginners.
These classes are open to beginners as well as experienced. Practitioners will be introduced to the basic techniques needed for a strengthening as well as soothing yoga practice. The pace is slow so it is also ok for you who have injuries.
There is an emphasis on the primary yoga positions used in the Ashtanga routine but the class structure will be different each time and will be based on the needs of the participants
Marika implements different styles and practices of yoga in her classes, such as Hatha, Vinyasa and Ashtanga with a special focus on breathing. Her intention is to create a safe and relaxed environment that allows people to become aware of their body and can help them to look beyond the mat and into themselves.
