Sharath and Pattabhi Jois count through the Ashtanga Yoga Primary Series together

In memory of R. Sharath Jois (29 Sept 1971 - 11 Nov 2024) a synchronised Ashtanga Primary Series led counted class with both Sharath and Pattabhi Jois (Sharath's grandfather) as a way of remembering both of them; it is comforting practicing to this after Sharath's unexpected passing last year.

This took so longer than I thought it would as they both had slightly different phrases when they counted the series through but very happy with the result, and it makes for a concise 1 hour and 15 minute sequence. I then synchronised it to a video of myself moving through the series.

Since uploading this video I subsequently found a recording of Pattabhi Jois reciting the finishing prayer, I synced this up to Sharath's finishing prayer so this updated and is on the mp3 audio of this talk through (details on https://onyouryogamat.com).

Also many more yoga resources on the website.

I sincerely hope you enjoying practicing with this 🙏🏼
