I a m super excited to be coming over to Ashtanga Yoga Malmö to teach a four d ay workshop in December. I just wanted to say a few words about what to ex pect from me as a teacher and the sessions I will lead. I have been teachi ng and practising ashtanga yoga for over 22 years now and one of the highe st compliments I have had from a student was to be called the hardest work ing man in the Mysore room. I pride myself on being available open and hon est to every student that comes through the door giving each person 110%. I welcome all levels at the workshop especially complete beginners as the Mysore room is the perfect starting point for a newcomer to Ashtanga. I am also super excited to bring Zen Meditation to this workshop. The mind Bod y combination of Zazen (Zen meditation ) and ashtanga yoga is absolutely p erfect . An old Yogi once told me yoga teachers get the students they dese rve and looking at all my student testimonials I feel like I’m doing somet hing right. See you on 27 December!'\n DETAILED PROGRAMME\n \n\nMorning My sore class 27-30 Dec 7:00-10am (doors open at 06:45) FULLY BOOKED\n\n \n\n Introduction to Zen Meditation 27-30 Dec (10:30-11:30) FULLY BOOKED\n\nA 4 -day introduction to Zazen meditation\; “It's so easy to get lost in the p hysical aesthetic of Ashtanga that the more subtle internal practice gets lost in the noise. Using Zazen has helped Matt quieten the crazy mind and embrace the quality of a true practice.  Through Zazen Matt discovered how the mind component of Ashtanga Yoga is integral to the whole foundation o f the practice and to the complete understanding of the external physical form.”\n \n\nEvening workshops27-29 Dec  (17:15-19:15) ONLY A FEW SPACES L EFT\n\n \nMon 27/12: The Vinyasa of Ashtanga Yoga \nThe practice of Ashtan ga Yoga is built around the key concept of Vinyasa - or 'moving breathing system'.

In addition to having his own shala in Manchester for many years he has taught yoga around the world\, most lately in the Venice Beach area of Los Angeles\, California. He returned to the UK last year a nd is now settling in Ramsgate. Matt is married to Lina from Lund\, and th us has links to Sweden which he frequently visits to see family\n10 years ago Matt started studying Zen Buddhism which foundations lie in the daily sitting practice of Zazen. When he added Zazen to his Ashtanga practice he noticed an immediate effect resulting in a steadier more focused mind whi lst moving through the asana sequences – the end result being a sense of i n the moment presence coupled with a strong flexible mind &\; body.\nMa tt\, although he has studied the Ashtanga practice in Mysore\, prefers to keep his teachings completely secular.
