The Method: Autumn Immersion. A structured, clear practice that grows with you.
9 October – 11 December 2026
The Autumn Immersion is a ten-week educational programme designed to complement and further grow your regular Ashtanga Yoga practise, by bringing together the principles and skills that often support greater clarity, structure and consistency over the years.
Rather than replacing your regular classes, the Practice Immersion provides a structured framework for deepening your understanding of practice over time.
Through weekly Mysore practice, focused educational sessions and ongoing guidance, we’ll explore the principles that support intelligent progression and long-term growth.
The aim is not to simply practise, but to bring greater clarity, structure and intention to the way you practice – to understand how practice can evolve through changing seasons of life, work, energy and responsibility while remaining both traditional and sustainable.
Over then weeks, we establish a framework for long-term development that extends well beyond the duration of the programme.
Applications
Applications open on 20 August 2026. The Autumn Immersion begins on 9 October 2026.

Who is this for?
The practice immersion is designed for women with an established Ashtanga Yoga practice who wish to develop greater clarity, a sustainable structure and depth in the way they practice.
It is for practitioners who understand that long-term progress is built through thoughtful, consistent work rather than isolated breakthroughs.
This programme may be a good fit if you:
- have an established Ashtanga Yoga practice and are ready to deepen your understanding of it
- value clear structure and intelligent guidance while maintaining ownership of your own practice
- are interested in the principles behind strength, recovery and sustainable progression
- enjoy learning as much as practising
- are looking for a committed group of practitioners who value consistency and thoughtful discussion
- see practice as a long-term discipline rather than a short-term challenge
Although some practitioners choose to study exclusively through our Practice Immersions, you are welcome to continue practising with your regular teacher, and belonging to your practice community. The Practice Immersion complements the journey by providing the educational framework that helps you deepen your understanding and connect the dots over time.

Rather than isolated drills, we’ll look at how these skills emerge progressively through intelligent practice.

Frequently Asked questions
Do i need an established practice?
Yes.
The programme is designed for practitioners with an existing Ashtanga Yoga practice who wish to deepen and organise it more effectively.
If I enrol, can I continue practising with my regular teacher or shala?
Absolutely.
Many practitioners choose to continue practising with their regular teacher or their local practice community while participating in the Practice Immersion. Others choose the Immersion as their primary framework for practice and learning.
The programme is designed to support both approaches. It provides a clear educational structure that helps connect the dots, deepen your understanding and support the long-term development of your practice, wherever you choose to practice.
Will sessions be recorded?
Not in full.
The immersion is designed as a live educational programme, where learning develops through participation, discussion, and consistent practice over time.
Where appropriate, selected resources, notes or short excerpts may be shared to support your learning. However, participants are expected to attend the live sessions and engage wit the programme as it unfolds.
Is the programme taught in english?
Yes.
All practice sessions, workshops and discussions are conducted in English.
Can I join from outside Europe?
Yes.
The programme is open internationally, provided the sessions times are manageable in your time zone.
Is this a teacher training?
No.
The Autumn Immersion is an educational programme designed to deepen and support personal practice rather than certify teachers.
