Hello and Welcome Home to Ashtanga World!

We invite you to explore this site and would love to share with you the research and insights we have made into the worlds of Ashtanga Yoga, Ayurveda and Tantra. These three sciences allow us all the opportunity to be  vibrantly alive, radiantly healthy, and fully celebrating in our daily lives.

Heather and I are here to contribute what we've learned on our journey, which is a combined 50 years of study, practice and experience, and to be of service to you on yours.

Here's how we can share with you on your journey. We have a center in Ubud,  Bali devoted to daily, ongoing Mysore-style self-practice of Ashtanga Yoga, along with the arts of Ayurveda and Tantra. In addition to these classes, we'll also offer trainings and intensives for teachers and students who want to deepen their experience of Ashtanga Yoga, along with the  arts of Ayurveda and Tantra. details on Bali »

Our Vision
Kabir: "Life is not a question, it's not a problem to be solved but a Mystery in to which One dissolves oneself (ego)."

We've created a place in Bali for you to get away and fully immerse yourself to go deeper Within. We're holding the space for you to enter at your own pace and unfold with grace (Hey I'm a poet and I didn't know it).  We're using the tools of Ashtanga Yoga, Ayurveda and Tantra as vehicles to unleash the inherent Wisdom which lies dormant in all of us.  These are living arts to practice and experience radiant health: physically, mentally and spiritually.  This allows you to celebrate every moment of your life and living!   

We're not going to give you dead belief systems or more information to fill your heads.   It's not about accumulating more facts like the current way of education that most of us received  in elementary or university: memorizing facts and repeating them back.   The western method of learning is outer exploration, outer space. Eastern mystics are "inner space" explorers.  It's  about Involution, not Evolution.  Learning needs to be an  experiential happening.  This is what awakens the Spirit Within.   

Clearly there are many paths to the One Truth.  We'd like to share with you our personal experience to this truth, through the methods  of  Ashtanga Yoga , Ayurveda and Tantra.   We're offering you this opportunity to dive deep into yourself by what the ancients called a "Mystery School." A mystery school is a group of mystics who gathered together to share the wisdom and secrets of the sacred mysteries of life with new initiates.   It's a living, breathing school that brings you home to your true Being.  

So come and deepen your practice of Ashtanga Yoga in a refreshing new way.   You'll also discover the healing qualities of Ashtanga Yoga, along with Ayurveda and Tantra.   Retreat or treat yourself to a week, month or longer to rejuvenate in beautiful Bali. 

And never forget to laugh because you are your own GURU. G.U.R.U.=Gee You Are You! 

Peace and Love,
Prem and Heather
