LIFETIME ACCESS

David Floating

Using the traditional Sanskrit count and focusing on the rhythm of the breath, David leads Jelena through the entire Primary Series, as taught in Mysore, India. In the tradition, every posture  has a specific number of counted vinyasa to enter and exit, all linked closely to the breath. This wonderful teaching method is an invaluable tool for all practitioners as it provides focus and mindfulness in developing the personal practice.  Practicing with Sanskrit count also shows respect for the traditional roots of Ashtanga Yoga. Moving with the count, Jelena expertly demonstrates the entry and exit from each pose. Along the way, David will offer some deeply valuable detailed instructions on how to keep your practice clean, correct and consistent.

Student Reviews

"I loved this workshop. Each class focused on a specific aspect of lifting, or a particular transition, but there were also a handful of overlapping principles that applied throughout. I have been able to incorporate a lot of new techniques into my practice, and I am definitely seeing an improvement in my lightness and floatiness!" - Ashley Ingvoldstad

"I loved EVERYTHING about this course!! Every session was eye-opening. After each class, I found myself appreciating each asana much more than before… even the asanas I wasn’t crazy about before. Highly recommended for yoga practitioners at all levels. Thank you, Jelena and David! Sending big thanks to Kat for her awesome support as well. " - Mika Howard

"I really like how David and Jelena break things down into incremental steps. It means that no matter what your ability level is, there’s something that you can work on. Their explanations and hints are applicable to so many parts of the practice… be it the timing of the breath or body position. Definitely worth it!!" Lisa Huzel

Jelena first came to yoga through dance. As a former ballet dancer of 16 years, the structure and rigour of the Ashtanga Yoga practice felt like home. Drawn to the discipline, mindfulness of the movement and emphasis on the breath, Jelena made the Ashtanga practice her sole focus in 2009.

Jelena has maintained a daily Ashtanga practice for over a decade. She’s made two trips to Mysore, India to study with her teacher, Sharath Jois.

Lastly, Jelena’s true passion lies in promoting rescue and adoption of (street) dogs. You can often find her sharing her love for #adoptdontshop on her IG, and sharing the joys of living with her two fur-babies, Boksoon and Khani, both celebrities in their own right.
