What is Ashtanga Yoga? w/ David Robson

Found this video at Ashtanga Yoga Brooklyn while browsing for moon days for the remainder of the year.  Nice to meet David Robson (had seen him in Mysore but did not know it was him).  He actually teaches at Ashtanga Yoga Toronto and I like how he talks about the practice, lineage, etc and the video-editing includes shots of a Mysore room, with people "going at it" and sweating it.

Nora -the interviewer- has a You Tube channel where she goes around Toronto (at least as far as I saw) interviewing representatives of different styles of yoga.

Here is the video. Enjoy!

    I practiced at David's studio in Toronto. It was amazing! In the video, it looks like there is steam in the studio. That's what it felt like. Thanks for sharing. Great interviewer. "Only the crazy people do Ashtanga." Ha. Happy weekend!
