Ashtanga Yoga in Oulu
Welcome to practise Ashtanga Yoga with us at Villa Puomi in Hietasaari, Oulu.
Astangajooga Oulu ry is a non-profit association founded in 2002. We offer Ashtanga Yoga introductory courses, weekly classes, Mysore courses and workshops at our yoga studio.
New to Ashtanga Yoga?
Our introductory courses are suitable for beginners and require no previous yoga experience or specific level of fitness. During the course, you will learn the basics of Ashtanga Yoga, including breathing, movement, sun salutations, standing postures and the principles of vinyasa.
After completing an introductory course, you can join our weekly classes.
Weekly classes
We offer several types of classes:
Guided Standing Sequence
The instructor guides you verbally through the standing sequence and parts of the finishing sequence. Suitable for those who have completed an introductory course.
Guided Standing Sequence Plus
Includes the standing sequence, the beginning of the seated sequence and parts of the finishing sequence. Suitable for practitioners who are comfortable with the standing sequence and want to learn more.
Mysore
A traditional, self-paced way of practising Ashtanga Yoga. Everyone practises at their own pace while the instructor provides individual guidance and assistance.
Self-Practice
A chance to practise independently at the studio alongside other practitioners. No instruction is provided.
Weekly classes are primarily taught in Finnish, but individual guidance is available in English. The Wednesday Guided Standing Sequence can be taught entirely in English.
Courses and workshops
We organize introductory and Mysore courses several times a year, as well as workshops and themed sessions with visiting teachers.
