Yoga is a whole life process. There is actually only one Yoga, with various aspects The most known and extremely useful aspect of this one Yoga is the eight rungs (ashta=eight, anga=rungs) outlined by Patanjali in the Yoga Sutras.
The intent of this course is to provide a very practical, yet thorough overview of the systematic process of traditional Ashtanga Yoga. Our approach is essentially three-fold: First, the most essential foundation principles are introduced and explained. Second, the eight rungs (ashtanga) are each explained. Third, explanations are given on what to do with the eight rungs in conjunction with those foundation principles. This journey includes practical principles on the outcomes of the practices, and the levels of direct experience that come as a result of practicing traditional Ashtanga Yoga. The course is meant for a wide range of practitioners, including those who are new to Yoga, and those with years of experience who wish to explore the subtler, more interior aspects of Yoga. This course is a great introduction to the traditional principles and practices of Yoga before its traditional orientation was largely abandoned starting in the early 1900s.
We are passionate about these principles and practices and offer these to you from the depth of our hearts. May your Ashtanga Yoga practices bring you peace, happiness, and bliss.
In loving service,
Swami Jnaneshvara (Swami J)
Who this course is for:
- This course is for anyone with interest in Yoga
- The ideal student would have an active curiosity and a genuine interest in practicing the subtler aspect of traditional Ashtanga Yoga.

Another gem from Abhyasa Ashram! This course provides clear and concise explanation of the process to liberation. Symbolic metaphors used by SwamiJ makes complex concepts easy to grasp. Thank you SwamiJ and Ma Tri!

Illuminating & practical, the most user-friendly exposition of the subject I’ve yet to come across ~ just the boost I’ve needed to help me better understand the Yoga Sutras & work w/them in my own practice … Deep stuff, to be sure, but offered w/a light, encouraging touch … Thank you, Swami J & Ma Tri, for making these teachings so accessible!

Thank you SwamiJ and MaTri, great course as always. You are the best! The simplicity shows your skill and care in teaching and knowledge on the topic. The assurance of obstacles as natural, and the reminders of patience, kindness and fun along the process are friendly and comforting. There’s much to explore and one needs to keep going deeper and getting more acquainted with the subtleties of the practice, but with your guidance and tools, the “not easy” path, seems to become a little easier. Thank you so much! I thoroughly enjoyed this, and appreciate that at the end I was even able to have a good long laugh about it all. Till next time, and please have a WONDERFUL next meditation!

I just finished the course. It’s exactly what I wanted to know! What I’ve been wanting to learn for such a long time. I’ve been practicing and studying different types of yoga on my own for over a decade. I finished a year long teacher training recently and it was nowhere near as good as this. I’m so grateful that I’ve found this course and that you made it. This is what I’ve been seeking. Straight forward, simple and easy going. Perfect. Thank you!

Best course I ever took and I did my masters and took numerous courses. Logically laid out. Easy to follow. Plenty of repetition to absorb the material.

Excellent, well-paced course presented in a friendly, light-hearted manner. I have read a lot of books about astanga yoga and so on, but I learned some new things from this course and it clarified and summarised the path very well.

This course has deepened my understanding of and appreciation for postural yoga and meditation. I’ve seen a lot of courses where the instructor places too much emphasis on being entertaining and engaging; like a salesman. This course isn’t like that. The point is not to entertain, but to impart knowledge and to give you the tools necessary to take you further on your yoga journey. What I love most about this, is the fact that Swami J gets caught up in his emotions when he tells some of his stories and that empathy and the lightness with which he lets these emotions roll over him is a good example of the principles he’s trying to convey. Give it a shot, there are a number of good, helpful insights buried in this course. Thank you, Swami J, for sharing this with us.
