I have some big news to share.
This past week, I officially leased a new studio space that will become the new home of Ashtanga Yoga Groningen.
For now, all of my classes at Plaza Sportiva will continue as usual. Beginning next week, the new shala will offer classes in the late mornings, evenings, and weekends, along with workshops, special events, and teacher trainings.
I’ll also have a dedicated space for private instruction, assisted stretching, and other wellness treatments.
My intention is to create a peaceful space dedicated to in-depth study and practice. A place where we can continue developing our yoga community, deepen our own practice, and occasionally invite other teachers to share their experience and knowledge with us.
The shala is bright, quiet, and intentional, with space for a maximum of 12 mats. I want to keep things simple in this initial phase, with an emphasis on personalized instruction and a meditative atmosphere.
200-Hour Teacher Training
One of the big additions coming to the new shala will be our 200-Hour Yoga Alliance Teacher Training, beginning in January.
This six-month weekend intensive will explore the practice, teaching, philosophy, anatomy, pranayama, meditation, and methodology of Ashtanga Yoga, giving you a solid foundation for creating thoughtful, traditional, and inspiring yoga classes.
Proposed dates:
Jan 22–24
Feb 5–7
Mar 5–7
Mar 19–21
Apr 9–11
May 21–23
Jun 4–6
Jun 18–20
More information and details to follow.
There are plenty of ideas for how the shala might grow and evolve over the coming years, but for now, I’m excited to simply open the doors and begin practicing together.
Let me know if you have any questions.
I look forward to seeing many of you there.
Yours in Yoga,
Adarsh
