Sama Ashtanga Yoga, 35h Immersion in Golfe Juan w/ Chuck & Syrena

ximena — Wed, 09 Sep 2026 22:20:51 +0000

7 Days of Sama Ashtanga Yoga
From Conditioning to Conscious Participation
with Chuck & Syrena

April 24 – 30, 2027

in Golfe Juan, Côte d’Azur (between Cannes & Antibes)

*** Qualifies for 35 hours to AYP’s 300h Teacher Training ***

In this 35-hour immersion, practices are used as a direct means of inquiry. They are grounded yet spiritual, using the human body as a vehicle. We are not learning to achieve or complete anything. Alignment and action are gradually internalized as strength within us—a strength that allows us to meet challenges and remain sober and open in an ever-changing world.

The journey from conditioning to conscious participation is not about becoming someone different. It is about developing the capacity to meet ourselves and our circumstances with greater clarity, steadiness, and awareness.

Through the model of the Pancha Maya Koshas, we explore the interconnected relationship between the gross and the subtle dimensions of our experience. Through the observation of samskara-s, we begin to recognize the patterns that shape how we move, think, feel, and respond. Through practice, we cultivate sama— not as the absence of opposing forces, but as the ability to remain in relationship with them without becoming completely dominated by any one tendency.

As awareness deepens, an important question emerges: if we are not simply following our conditioning, what guides our actions? This is where sankalpa and vairagya meet. Sankalpa gives us direction, while vairagya gives us freedom. Together, they teach us how to engage wholeheartedly without becoming attached to outcomes.

From this perspective, yoga is not a path of perfecting postures or escaping the challenges of life. It is a practice of learning how to participate more consciously in the ever-changing conditions of our experience. The more clearly we can see our patterns, the more skillfully we can respond to them. And as the space between conditioning and response grows, so too does our capacity for choice.

Freedom is not the absence of conditioning. Nor is it the ability to control every aspect of our lives. Rather, freedom emerges when we are no longer completely governed by our habits, reactions, preferences, and fears. It is found in the capacity to respond rather than merely react, to participate rather than be carried unconsciously by circumstance.

From the gross to the subtle, from conditioning to conscious participation, this exploration invites us to discover a deeper sense of balance, intention, and ultimately, freedom—not freedom from life, but freedom within it.

"I don't know exactly when I first got interested in yoga. It seems the urge was there from a very early age. I think that is true for many of us. We don't know what it is that is calling us and yet we definitely feel it. What is interesting is what makes us answer the call! What you can no longer ignore!

My best friend and I, in 4th grade, decided, for some reason, that we wanted to sit in padmasana, so we did. It wasn't easy for us at first but we kept trying. I found myself years later, in high school, like many of us in the 60s, dissatisfied with the world I found myself living in. I was searching for some other way to live and grow, to evolve as a human being. I could not relate to the religion I was born into and started reading books about eastern thought. Authors like DT Suzuki, Suzuki Roshi, Alan Watts, Herman Hess, Chogyam Trungpa and many others. I became a voracious reader at an early age.

In 1971, at the age of 17, a friend and I went to hear a free lecture on Transcendental Meditation in our local elementary school, Killington, Vermont. A very small rural town in the Green Mountains of 'New England.' The man was talking about following one's thoughts back to where they came from, as they bubbled up through multiple layers of awareness until they surfaced into our consciousness. That it might be possible to get to the source of thought! To be able to perceive the world, to respond and even think from the origin of thought, instead of from the outer shells. To act from a deeper place, without being trapped in the realms of pre-conditioned, biased, cyclic thought! They were trying to sell us on returning the next day, paying our $35 to take a short course and receive a free personalized mantra.

I didn't go but the concept intrigued me and I began to practice it, on a giant rock in my back yard. It was an amazing experience for me. I began to realize that all the different voices in my head were all my own voice. I was talking to myself. I realized this is how people believe they are talking to spirits or gods, or also what can make people think they are crazy! I started to understand where these 'voices' were 'coming from!' That this is very deep, very ancient...
Later that year I found a book, "Be Here Now," by Baba Ram Das, which included simple pranayama and asana practices which I also included on a daily basis. I was hooked! It connected many of the missing links I was struggling with. The title of the book became my mantra! "Be Here Now!"

In 1974 I found the book Light on Yoga by BKS Iyengar. The Introduction was one of the most profound things I had read up to that moment. I began working through the practices contained in there. They were laid out in weekly routines, with photos in a different part of the book and descriptions for how to do the postures in yet another place! Complicated! It was later edited to be more usable. The book became my constant companion, I had created a special pocket for it in my backpack. It was complicated but I was motivated and after about 3 years I had managed to get to the recommended week 35 or so. I thought that I must be a very slow student! Years later talking to others who tried the same I found that actually I had done pretty well!

In 1980, intrigued that here was a man who had studied with the same teacher as Iyengar, I met Sri K Pattabhi Jois. When he asked me who my teacher was I replied "book." What book he asked. "Light on Yoga." Oh, you are Iyengar student! So he called me that for the first month as I began practicing Ashtanga Yoga. I continued with him intensively for many years and intermittently until his death.

In March of 1988 I got permission from Pattabhi Jois to teach Primary Series and was pushed into the yoga room and began teaching Ashtanga Yoga. I taught in the same school, almost the same time for 17 years. Many of the students came for years and years. It was a great experience for me. I hope it was for them as well!

After selling the school and moving to Hawaii Island, "The Big Island," I began accepting invitations to teach in other cities around the world, my wife Syrena continue to do that today.

Having the belief that Ashtanga Yoga is strong enough, with enough internal integrity to withstand scrutiny, I studied with many different teachers and tested those teachings on my own mat... that continues today! I found the same internal truths in the deeper realms of all great practices and started calling the conflicts between them "semantic differences."

Today I like to point to what I call "Sama," as that sameness that exists everywhere.
Finding the sameness between Philosophy and Practice continues to inform my practice and thus my teaching."

Syrena

My practice and teaching are shaped by the guidance of experienced teachers from diverse yoga traditions—Chuck Miller, Doug Keller, and Hart Lazer among them—as well as many Zen and Buddhist teachers.

I began teaching yoga in 2020 in Taipei, Taiwan. After marrying my partner, Chuck Miller, I moved to the Big Island of Hawaii. I continue to teach classes and workshops in Taiwan and different parts of the world.

I understand yoga practice—whether asana, pranayama, or meditation—as a way of cultivating presence and awareness, easing the drain created by unconscious patterns. As we develop this awareness in the body, we also cultivate a greater sense of safety, balance, and freedom in the mind—rather than pain, insecurity, or depletion.

In fact, I often feel that I’m not really “teaching yoga.” I’m trying to help people find their way into practice—and that difference matters. I don’t teach a fixed system. I see asanas not as shapes to achieve, but as tools for practice—ways to meet what is happening in the present moment. We may try techniques that I’ve found useful, but we don’t mistake the techniques for the essence of what we’re learning.

Ultimately, yoga practice aims to help us sustain the stability and harmony we cultivate on the mat as we return to daily life and meet its various tasks and challenges.

“ Syrena has made it a point to make sure that the teachers she studies with are highly qualified.
She asks good questions, she is a quick learner with very strong sense of Viveka, discernment. She has a keen eye for what changes and improvements need to be made.
Her hands are very sensitive and have a lot of intelligence. Although her hands are small they are quite strong. She gives very nice hands-on adjustments. Students benefit greatly from having her energy and assistance in the room.
Her adjustments give me confidence to go deeper into my essential core actions and feel more free to indulge in sharing the mystery of where this intelligence comes from. ”

Ever since I was a child, I’ve watched my mother practise Ashtanga every day. She would often ask me to help her with certain difficult poses, and I would try to copy her when the asanas seemed particularly impressive to me.

I’ve always been very active, having practised gymnastics, trapeze and dance. So it felt natural for me to take up Ashtanga in 2014.

During my first class, a Mysore class in a small shala in Aarhus, Denmark, I was very surprised: the silence, discipline and repetition came neither naturally nor easily to me. Yet yoga has since become an essential part of my daily life.

It was in 2024 that I discovered Ashtanga Yoga Paris and their teacher training course with Linda Munro and Gérald Disse, which I signed up for immediately. Having completed my training in 2025, I now have the pleasure of teaching at AYP since the start of 2026.

Having grown up in Germany and lived for several years between Paris and Berlin, I fell in love with yoga in 2020, just as I was embarking on a particularly intense period in the music industry.

Since then, yoga has become a true pillar in my life: a routine, a space to refocus, a source of motivation, and sometimes a refuge in my daily life. This practice has taught me to listen more closely to my body, to face myself, and to be more mindful of my surroundings.

Today, I’m committed to sharing what has given me so much by guiding each student as they discover their own path, with curiosity, an open ear, and kindness.

After completing my 200-hour teacher training in early 2026 with Linda Munro and Gérald Disse, I’m currently pursuing an in-depth 300-hour training program at Ashtanga Yoga Paris.

The Art of Devotional Yoga – Weekend Workshop with Ron Reid & Marla Meenakshi Joy

ximena — Mon, 15 Jun 2026 21:36:18 +0000

The Art of Devotional Yoga Practice:
Practicing from the Heart
with Ron Reid and Marla Meenakshi Joy

May 7 – 9, 2027

*** Qualifies for 11.5 hours to AYP’s 300h Teacher Training ***

AYP is happy to welcome back their inspirational teachers! The theme of the weekend will be around the Bhagavad Gita. Join us for weekend of yoga practice while cultivating devotion, chanting, and satsang…all flowing in one stream towards awakening the connection with the Divine within!

Program

FRIDAY, MAY 7th
19:00 – 20:30 Kirtan & Introduction to the Bhagavad Gita
Come and enjoy diving into this beautiful and timeless text that encourages us to unfold the knowledge within of how to live fully, act with integrity, surrender the result, and stay rooted in Inner Truth! Woven with chants from Swaha (Meenakshi and Ron Reid) to guide us into bliss! (Swaha has composed over 5 cd’s, and multiple singles)

SATURDAY, MAY 8th
10:00 – 12:00 Flowing Shanti Pulse Practice: Cultivating Bhakti and a sense of a Higher Power
We will begin with a short talk about devotion in Bhagavad Gita. Bhakti (devotion) is the path of offering your heart, actions, and life to something greater than yourself. It’s not about ritual or belief—it’s about love, trust, and surrender.
Flowing into Shanti Pulse: A rhythmic breathing and asana flow, set to a 1.5 hour track by Swaha called “Shanti Pulse”. We will explore the rhythm of Ujjayi breath and let it carry us through our asana practice ending in a shavasana lullaby chant.

13:30 – 16:00 Arm Balances: Vasishtasana & Vishwamitrasana & How to become the Non-Doer
Bhagavad Gita lecture: How to become the Non-doer in our practice and life. Non-doership in asana means you’re not “forcing” the pose from ego or control—you’re allowing the body to move as an expression of breath, awareness, and intelligence already happening
within you.
We will then flow into: Birds of a Feather: With these two incredible arm balances, Vasishtasana & Vishwamitrasana (which are Rishi’s, or sages). We will dive into ways to find stability in the wrists and shoulders, and open and strengthen what is needed to prepare ourselves for our journey into the mystical world of these two enlightened saints!

SUNDAY, MAY 9th
10:00 – 12:00 Back Bending: Cultivating a Courageous Heart
Bhagavad Gita: An exploration of how to stay steady, open, and true in the face of challenge. Drawing from the Gita’s teachings, we look at acting with courage without hardening the heart—A reminder that real strength isn’t force—it’s the willingness to show up fully, follow your dharma, and stay rooted in inner truth, no matter what arises.
We will then flow into radiant heart: The art of back bending. In order to liberate our energy in backbends, we first need to discover ways of working that allow us to find balance through the whole body. This requires stabilizing and strengthening in some areas and extending and opening other areas. We will be exploring some of the poses from 2nd and 3rd Series, as they contain all of the components necessary for developing both deeper and more balanced backbends. This can also lead us to the exploration of dropping back and standing up!!

13:30 – 16:00 Hip Opening: Cultivating the Highest Qualities in Ourselves
Bhagavad Gita: Cultivating the Highest Qualities in Ourselves:
What are the highest qualities of a true devotee and devoted yogi?—not what you believe, but how you live. How can we cultivate being steady, kind, humble, free from jealousy, not easily disturbed, and rooted in inner peace—and become someone who treats all beings with compassion and remains balanced in both success and difficulty.
Flowing into: Roots and Release:
We will close our weekend with a fluid, grounding journey that begins with mindful HIP-OPENING to release tension, build stability, and create space in the hips and lower spine…then gently transition into Restorative postures for a deep nervous system reset, creating space in the body and inner stillness.

Dive into the heart of Yin: Immersive Yin Yoga weekend with Céline Barrelet

Dive into the heart of Yin
Immersive Yin Yoga weekend
with Céline Barrelet

February 26 – 28, 2027

This weekend is an invitation to dive into the world of Yin Yoga, both as a body practice and as a space for inner exploration.

During these two and a half days, we will take the time to slow down, feel and understand. Understand the notion of Yin, its qualities, its nuances… and above all to experience it directly in the body.

It is a deep immersion combining practice, transmission and integration.

Workshop in French (en français)

Program

Friday: 18h30 – 21h00
Saturday & Sunday: 10h00 – 12h15 & 13h15 – 15h45

A 12-hour immersion

These 12 hours are designed as a journey in several stages: slow down, feel, explore and integrate.
They combine Yin Yoga practices, theoretical contributions and experiential explorations, in order to allow an understanding that is at once physical, sensitive and energetic.

Yin Yoga Postures

Over the weekend, you will be invited to:

discover the archetypal postures of Yin Yoga, those that constitute the basis and reveal the essence of the practice
also explore other postures and variations, in order to enrich and refine your practice
understand their benefits, their effects on the body, fascia and nervous system
discover the associated meridians, for a more global and energetic reading of the body

A lively and embodied approach

Each time will alternate between:

Long and deep Yin practices
Simple and accessible theoretical contributions
Observation and personal exploration
Time for meditation and integration

Understanding does not remain mental:

it passes through the body, the feeling and the direct experience.

Yin in Motion

Yin will also be explored in its more fluid dimension, through:

Small, soft and conscious Yin flows
Slow transitions guided by breathing
An exploration of the Dragon Dance

The Dragon Dance

Dragon Dance is a slow-moving, yoga-inspired practice that combines breathing, fluidity, and presence.
It is experienced as a meditation in movement, where the body links simple gestures, on the ground and standing, in great slowness and continuous attention to the breath.

In this weekend, it will be offered in a soft and accessible version, in order to

Awaken circulation in the body
Explore the continuity of movement
Connect Yin and Yang in subtle ways
Integrate sensations more deeply

It embodies the Yang dimension at the heart of the Yin universe, to enrich the overall experience.

The world of Yin

This weekend is also a gateway to:

The qualities of Yin: slowness, relaxation, interiority
Yin/Yang balance
Calming the nervous system
Welcoming sensations and emotions

A timeless interlude

A space for:
slow down, settle down, come back to yourself and deepen your practice with awareness and gentleness

For whom?

This weekend is for:

– anyone wishing to discover or deepen Yin Yoga
– practitioners wishing to better understand their practice

Workshop in Franch (en français)

Refining the Ashtanga Primary Series, with Linda Munro

ximena — Fri, 27 Mar 2026 13:57:51 +0000

<< All Events

Refining the Ashtanga Primary Series
with Linda Munro

A 4-Class Live Progressive Series + Replays
+ 8 Pre-recorded Sessions & Workbook

This live series is designed for practitioners who know at a portion of the Primary Series and want to refine how they move through it.

We will explore the Primary Series as a practice of moving prāṇāyāma — where breath leads, steadiness stabilises, and ease is cultivated within effort. Across four progressive classes, we gradually build the sequence from its foundations to the full arc, refining not just alignment, but the inner experience of sthira and sukha.

Rather than pushing for depth or performance, the emphasis is on continuity of breath, intelligent pacing, and the capacity to remain steady and receptive as intensity increases. As the sequence expands each week, you will develop greater sensitivity to how prāṇa moves through the practice — learning where to ground, where to soften, and how to sustain clarity from the first Sun Salute to the final rest.

This is an invitation to experience the Primary Series not simply as a sequence of postures, but as an integrated breathing meditation in motion.

Between live classes, you’ll follow the accompanying pre-recorded program, Build an Ashtanga Practice – for a Body That Lasts, creating a complete immersion in both the precision and progressive development of the Primary Series.

This course is suitable for all levels of practitioners!

Program

Live classes Sunday, 16:30
September 13 & 27, October 18 and November 1, 2026.

Class 1 — Establishing Steady Flow

Sunday, September 13th, 16h30 – 18h00

*plus time for Q & A at end

Breathing meditation in movement

Sequence:
• Breath & Bandha Focus
• Sun Salutations
• Full Standing Sequence
• Beginning of Seated
• Baby Back Bend & Legs Up
• Seated Finishing Poses

Focus:
• Establishing consistent ujjayi rhythm
• Coordinating breath and movement without rush
• Finding structural steadiness (sthira) in standing postures
• Softening unnecessary effort while maintaining integrity

Intention:
To experience the early arc of the series as a breathing practice first. We refine how we enter, hold, and transition — cultivating stability without rigidity and effort without strain.

Class 2 — Steady Within Intensity

Sunday, September 27th, 16h30 – 18h00

*plus time for Q & A at end

Breath Through Increasing Intensity (to Supta Kurmasana)

Sequence:
• Standing with greater continuity
• Seated sequence through Supta Kurmasana
• Baby Back Bend & Legs Up
• Seated Finishing Poses

Focus:
• Maintaining even breath as shapes deepen
• Containing energy rather than dispersing it
• Working with challenge while preserving sukha
• Allowing prāṇāyāma to stabilise the nervous system

Intention:
As intensity increases, steadiness becomes subtler. The work is to remain internally spacious while the external demand grows.

Class 3 — Ease Within Effort

Sunday, October 18th, 16h30 – 18h15

*plus time for Q & A at end

Adding the Finishing Sequence

Sequence:
• Standing Sequence with Flow
• Seated sequence through Supta Kurmasana
• Backbending + full Finishing Sequence

Focus:
• Breath rhythm in backbending
• Avoiding breath-holding under effort
• Rebalancing the system through inversions

Intention:
To experience how the series rises and resolves. Sthira becomes endurance; sukha becomes the ability to regulate and return.

Class 4 — Full Flow Integration

Sunday, November 1st, 16h30 – 18h30

*plus time for Q & A at end

Full Primary Series

Sequence:
• Complete Primary Series

Focus:
• Unbroken breath awareness
• Efficient transitions
• Energetic coherence across the full arc
• Personal pacing for sustainability

Intention:
To practise the Primary Series as a unified prāṇāyāma meditation in motion — steady, easeful, and internally connected from beginning to end.

Fabiana Silberstein

Hey! My name is Fabiana and I was born and raised in Uruguay, a lovely tiny little country way down in South America.

Having worked in fashion and art direction for the longest part of my life, I found yoga to be that thing I did to find shelter from the craziness.

That “hobby/coping mechanism’’ eventually became so much more over the years. It became a passion, then a calling, then, well, a job (but the kind of job that doesn’t feel like one).

I went all in and did a 200-hour Vinyasa Teacher Training at Hanu Yoga studio in Miami Beach, and, having fallen in love with the Ashtanga practice, I followed with a 300-hour Ashtanga Teacher Training in Paris at the emblematic Ashtanga Yoga Paris studio with Linda and Gérald.

It’d be my honor to share this transformative practice with you, whatever your intentions are and however your life looks like today!

Vinyasa Teacher Training
with Linda Munro

March 26 – 30, 2027
in Golfe Juan, Côte d’Azur (between Cannes & Antibes)

For teachers and experienced practitioners
30-hour training

*** Compatible with our 300-hour flexible Teacher Training ***

Ashtanga was the first method of yoga asana that introduced the concept of Vinyasa – step-by-step gradual progression to the next posture while linking the breathing to those movements. Therefore, having a base of Ashtanga is very useful to feeling the natural linking together of different poses.

Program

March 26 – 30, 2027
Friday – Tuesday
10:30 – 17:30

During the week, in the morning Linda will guide you through a Vinyasa practice, so you can experience as many ‘sequences’ as possible. Then we will explore different levels of Vinyasa classes – Soft Vinyasa, Dynamic Vinyasa for levels 1 through 3, Beginners Vinyasa – what kinds of poses are appropriate, the essence of the class, planning a class and finally building around a theme action or pose.

SCHEDULE:

10:30 – 12:00 Vinyasa Class
13:00 – 14:30 Lecture/Discussion
14:45 – 17:30 Deconstructing Key Poses & Designing Sequences

Nadi Shodhana – The Intermediate Series
And Chakra Exploration
with Linda Munro

June 7 – 11, 2027

For teachers and experienced practitioners
35-hour training

*** Compatible with our 300-hour flexible Teacher Training ***

The name of the Ashtanga Second Series is called ‘Nadi Shodhana’ which means nadi cleansing. The nadis are the ‘little rivers’ of our subtle body, which allow the prana, energy or life force to move freely throughout the body. When these channels are unobstructed we feel healthy, vibrant, light and clear. However, when they are blocked we can feel dull, tired, depressed and foggy. This series is a perfect complement to the healing asanas of primary series.

There are some main junctions of nadis that are said to be important energetic areas of the body – these are the Chakras. In the afternoons we will explore the chakras and how they may influence our body, mind, personality, and behavior.

You are ready to take this program if you have completed primary series and have already started some of the poses of intermediate.
The training will be given in English.

Program

June 7 – 11, 2027
Monday – Friday
9:30 – 17:30
(includes one hour lunch break)

In this 35-hour training we will examine the poses of the intermediate series in an intelligent and safe way.
Some of the topics we will explore:

Breaking down the poses to personalize them for the individual.
Anatomical alignment for optimal ability, longevity & wellness.
Using props and modifications.
Deeper understanding with hands-on adjustments.
Exploring how the primary series prepares us for this series.
When to embark on this series.
