After class this morning, I received a comment from a new student looking at the Ashtanga timetable on a brochure, saying:
“ohh Mysore class, I don’t think I’m ready for that yet”.
This is a very common misconception, as I eagerly shared with her, that a Mysore class is for everyone and all levels. And that the beauty of the method is that the class purely caters to the individual student in front of me. Even total begginers, those with injuries or even someone missing a limb! In a Mysore class I can individually work closely with students at their own pace, and can custom tailor a practice to their needs. It’s definitely a collaborative effort with lots of room for communication and questions. However, as with anything worthwhile, it does require some degree of discipline and patience, and waking up early. Are you curious? Remember, if you think you are not ready, please think again =)
