Refine, Recharge, and Reconnect at Our August 24 Ashtanga Yoga Workshop in Maitland

If you're seeking a deeper connection with your body, breath, and yoga practice, The Yoga Shala’s Ashtanga Yoga Workshop Maitland is your opportunity to explore just that—rooted in tradition, guided by expertise, and designed to meet you exactly where you are.

Whether you’re just starting your journey or have been practicing for years, this full-day workshop on Sunday, August 24, 2025, offers a hands-on, heart-centered experience that strengthens, clarifies, and uplifts your practice—on and off the mat.

Led by Krista Shirley, Central Florida’s only Level Two Authorized Ashtanga teacher, this immersive day includes Mysore-style instruction, an anatomy + alignment lab, and a pranayama + meditation session to cultivate energy, resilience, and emotional balance.

Client Background: Building a Better Practice, One Breath at a Time

Every month, students from across Central Florida join The Yoga Shala to enrich their understanding of traditional Ashtanga Yoga practice in Maitland. One such student, Holly, had been practicing yoga inconsistently for two years. She often felt uncertain in group classes and unsure how to modify postures for her body’s needs. What she sought wasn’t more poses—but more depth.

When she discovered our monthly Ashtanga Yoga Workshop Maitland, it immediately felt different. It wasn’t just about doing yoga; it was about learning it—receiving personalized, practical guidance that empowered her to evolve with confidence and clarity.

Challenges Faced: A Lack of Personalized Support and Functional Understanding

Like many yoga students, Holly struggled with:

• Understanding alignment in foundational poses

• Safely progressing her practice without injury

• Feeling left behind in faster-paced classes

• Managing anxiety and stress off the mat

She wanted a more sustainable, personalized way to build her practice—but without losing the heart and soul of yoga.

Solutions Provided by The Yoga Shala: A Full-Day, Intelligent Approach

Our Ashtanga Yoga Workshop Maitland is designed to offer exactly that: a space to grow intentionally, with expert support every step of the way.

Here’s what Holly and fellow students experienced:

🧘 8:00–10:00 AM – Mysore Style Yoga Class

Students moved at their own pace through the Ashtanga series with one-on-one support from Krista. From first-timers learning the opening sequence to advanced practitioners refining transitions, Mysore style provided a nurturing space for all levels.

This session builds strength, discipline, and independence while offering real-time feedback and encouragement.

🧍‍♀️ 10:30–12:30 PM – Primary Series: Anatomy + Alignment Lab

Krista guided an in-depth anatomical breakdown of key poses in the Primary Series—bridging the gap between theory and experience. Students explored joint health, muscle engagement, and safe movement patterns, gaining tools to refine their practice intelligently.

This hands-on session helped Holly finally understand how to correct her backbend and avoid shoulder discomfort—something that had frustrated her for months.

🌬️ 1:00–3:00 PM – Pranayama for Energy & Emotional Regulation

With breath as the anchor, students were led through intentional breathing techniques to regulate the nervous system, boost energy, and restore balance. Krista taught how to use calming, energizing, and balancing breaths depending on one’s daily needs.

Holly walked away with a new daily breathwork routine that helped her manage anxiety more effectively—and sleep better at night.
