Ashtanga Yoga
Breath-based yoga. Mindful movement. Intentional practice.
Sattva began as a place for Ashtanga practitioners here in York, PA. But what is Ashtanga Yoga? Ashtanga Yoga is a system of yoga established by T. Krishnamacharya designed to purify the body through breath and movement to bring stillness to the mind. It is a practice that can be approached with any body, as long as there is an intention to learn and a 1-month commitment to learning the practice. We have daily Mysore classes Tuesday through Friday from 5am to 7am, and Led Primary for established Ashtanga practitioners on Saturdays at 7:30am. (You must be a monthly member to attend these classes.)

New to Ashtanga Yoga? Come to one of our Mysore for Beginners Classes, held on Wednesdays and Fridays at 6:15am.
Mysore for Beginners Classes
Curious about Ashtanga but not quite ready to commit to a whole month of practice? Come to our twice-weekly Mysore for Beginners classes and see if Ashtanga feels like a good practice for you. What to expect: Megan will teach you a short portion of the Ashtanga practice 1-on-1 within a group setting--this is how we approach teaching Ashtanga yoga--adapting each pose of the practice for you and your body. You will learn some basic breathing, some basic movements, and you'll get to see what a Mysore class is all about. All bodies, all levels are welcome.
Ashtanga Membership at Sattva
Ashtanga requires a dedicated commitment to practice, meaning you are at Sattva roughly 3x/week to learn, integrate, and continue to grow in your practice. If you are serious about learning Ashtanga, you will need to pay a monthly tuition. Cost is $150/month. Sliding scale memberships are available for those that demonstrate financial need and are serious about learning.
