The Journey

This spring you will have the opportunity to further your journey into the Ashtanga Yoga Method. The senior teachers of Miami Life Center invite you to join them for a two month, transformative experience guided with diligence and sincere care for your spiritual progress.

Our philosophy is based in tradition. The subject of yoga is vast and worthy of a lifetime of learning. An established personal practice is the most important foundation for the yogi’s journey. You will join a comprehensive program aimed at preparing you for a journey into the dimension of Ashtanga Yoga – as a life style, a world view and potentially a profession. You will complete this course prepared to continue the art of learning along this ancient path.  This program is an intensive Ashtanga learning experience. 

Miami Life Center presents a roster of senior teachers, trained by Tim Feldmann and Kino MacGregor, who dedicate their lives to the spiritual practice of yoga. Through their guidance, you will learn the Vinyasa counts and technical foundation for key asanas of the primary Series in their original context. Tim and Kino will make guest appearances in this program sharing their special insight into the Ashtanga Yoga Tradition. The intention is to provide the students with an education, not with a certification. Only Sharath Jois / Ashtanga Yoga Institute in Mysore, India, can grant you an official certification or authorization to teach Ashtanga Yoga.
