yoga - meditation - awareness
Welcome at The Attic! We offer an Ashtanga Mysore programme, led classes and other styles of yoga. Our light attic with its calm and serene athmosphere is the ideal place to connect with yourself and really experience yoga. A team of qualified and dedicated teachers is committed to bring you further in your yoga practice. We value safety and quality above quantity, so groups are relatively small, no crowds. All levels and age groups are welcome.
It has always been the tradition in Ashtanga yoga to rest from asana practice on new and full moon days. As humans consist of 70% water, like all watery things we are affected by the moon. On Moondays the energy can impact our practice both mentally and physically, so we take rest. Therefore, on moon days there is no mysore class. They will be marked as cancelled in the schedule. You can find an overview of the moondays for 2023 right here. On other days it's practice as usual.
We regularly have workshops on different aspects of yoga, meditation and awareness. Check our upcoming workshops on the workshops page
Ashtanga yoga is a dynamic form of yoga in which you move with the pace of the breath. It is a fixed series and order of postures. You practice on your own breath, all students follow their own pace and breathing, rather than being led by a teacher. All levels are welcome to the Mysore classes. These classes are with Astrid (KPJAYI/SJYC L1). Astrid is one of the very few Dutch people who was authorized by Sharath Jois at Sharath Jois Yoga Centre, in Mysore, India, where she has studied for 5 consecutive years.
In this class the teacher will lead you through the postures. They will name the postures and count the inhales and exhales. All students will move through the sequence simultaneaously. Ashtanga yoga is a dynamic form of yoga in which you move with the pace of the breath. It is a fixed series and order of postures. You will practice the Ashtanga standing postures, and a selection of floor postures, as well as the finishing sequence.
A meditative class in which the postures are held for a long(er) period of time. By doing so you are able to access the deeper layers of the muscle tissue, the connective tissue between the muscles and the joints, and the ligaments and tougher body tissue. Combining these postures with attentive breathing opens the body and stills the mind. A meditative and softening practice, that allows for deep insightful practice. When we add Yang there is a little more movement and activation of the muscular body. All levels are welcome.
