This week with Clayton Horton in June has been amazing! So we’re happy to announce we’ll be offering the same program again early next year!

We are very fortunate to have Clayton visiting us again in February, offering a whole weekend workshop on Intermediate Series, for those of you with a regular practice who feel ready to move further in their practice…! And of course, a week of mysore practice and a Primary Series workshop.

Clayton is a direct student of Sri K P Jois and R Sharath Jois and he’s officially authorized to teach primary and intermediate series. His classes and workshops are always filled with interesting details on asana, philosophy, pranayama and meditation; he guides students progressively in their practice at the most appropriate level, helping to move them through the challenges they encounter in their practice; he helps teachers finding clarity and integrity in the practice & teaching of the astanga yoga system. He shares contagiously his dedication to astanga yoga with fun, lightness and with his amazing guitar!
