The best primary series I've done..lovely. Your mission speaks to me personally..as a single mother of two, the biggest barrier to participation in class is financial..I turn regularly to videos. If I can get to LA I would love to do a class with you..thank you so much for video!!
Hi Pranidhi!! Thank you soooo much for this class!!! It was so lovely and soft! Your voice is so calming. I appreciate how grounded and gentle you are. I also really enjoyed you having students in your group that where less advanced, a lot of online ashtanga videos have everyone perfect alligned, but ashtanga comes at all levels and forms, and I loved seeing that!! Also really appreciate your video being free, a $200 a month yoga membership is unaffordable for me here too!!! really appreciated!!!
Yours was the best primary series I have ever practiced from youtube. A pace that can be kept up with , set of crisp instructions and ending it with breathwork .. beautiful ❤️ thank you for the class 🙏
Many Many thanks, after procrastinating and not practising for 3 weeks due to laziness, I found your video online after a quick search and I practised in my living room, just now, the full primary series guided by your voice with the laptop on the table for quick visual references. amazing, I loved it, you got me. I loved it. Many many thanks again. Patrick.
I still love this class so much :) I don't know how many times I have practiced with it, but this is by far my favorite led class available on youtube :) Thank you Pranidhi!
Thanks ! I use this video at home when my planning won't fit with my yoga center, because it is perfectly similar to what I'm used to. Your videos are just pure flow, calm. Nothing fancy or unnecessary. Thanks for being simple and true. Namaste
This is one Yoga session I practice daily. And am immensely benefitted. Really like the flow and the pause and the pace. So smooth. So unhurried. FLOW. Thank you so much. 🙏

This was perfection, thank you so so much, Pranidhi! I liked the modifications you provided, liked your voice, liked the style, liked the pace, everything. I have been practicing yoga for 18 months now, Ashtanga and Vinyasa Flow style, currently doing Ashtanga two times a week and ashtanga fundamentals shorter practices once a week. I wanna be able to do ashtanga 3 times a week really soon :) I have 3 poses which are still not accessible for me, and around 8 others, which still need work, but otherwise, I love Ashtanga, and I hope to be able to fully practice it with all the jumpthroughs and jumpbacks and holding the headstand at the end for long enough. Thank you from Budapest, Hungary!
Thank you very much, Pranidhi! Such a great video for daily practice, with students from different ages and level. It is so encouraging! And your voice is beautiful. God bless your work.
Thank you so much for this excellent video. The students were amazing and I loved the mix of students highlighting that anyone can practise. I tend to dip in and out of ashtanga but your video is the best I have found for a guided practice. Warm wishes from Scotland.
Sending gratitude for this practice video. I joined you on my mat this morning and I will be joining you every morning. I so wish I could join in on your chant. Maybe with time I will. Look forward to your other videos.Namaste
Absolutely Lisa, you will be able to learn the chant with time. You can find a recording and translation here: www.pranidhivarshney.com/music/ Warm wishes for growth in your practice!
Beautiful! Wonderful quality video, lots of modifications, super rhythm and count. It's a pleasure to practice to :) Thank you for sharing with everyone!
Thank you so much for this - very calm and peaceful teaching - I can't practice ashtanga regularly in my area and I've just found this - very determined to try and do it once a week now! (I am a Vinyasa yoga teacher) - and also makes me feel more confident trying to attend Ashtanga workshops when available ;)
Dear Pranidhi, I just cannot get enough of this practice. This is my favourite led class. You are a wonderful soul and you are leading this class wonderfully. Your voice is soothing, your cues are perfect. Thank you! Any chance on making a led video with counting or chanting mantras for a practice of 108 sun salutions? It would be such a big help... I am practicing 108 sun salutes on the solstices and equinoxes and quite a few of us together from a fb group :) Thanks you, hugs from Budapest, Hungary!
Very nice session, I practice it almost everyday... I wish I could visit you and practice sessions in the studio , but I'm from abroad (Greece) and it's not convinient😂🇬🇷 keep up the good work!!! Are you going to make videos for the next levels of asthanga?
Hey. Thanks for sharing this video here.. I'm based in bombay and I recently started with self practice of ashtanga yoga (as the teachers here are very few and quite expensive). I have a question here - is it like a compulsion that the opening chant has to be only this - what Pattabhi Jois used while practising and teaching his students. I find no problem with this chant nor am I comparing this with other practices but I was wondering if I could still use other opening chants.
loving your work and your channel. do you recommend a cotton mat for ashtanga primary ? i am big guy. scared of mat rolling or slipping. please advise madam. May the Lord guide you
As a asthanga teacher by myself I was surprised by the lovely closing mantra which I only knew for half! Do you have the fully closing on text? Even as the last mantras they where so beautiful even as the singing! Thank you for that ! Hari om 🙏🏽🌺✨
Hi Janine! I learned that extended closing chant from Manju Jois. Feel free to email me and I'd be happy to send it to you. Contact info can be found on our website :) yogashalawest.com/contact/
I really love the classes you give and wish I could join them in real life! I'm afraid I'm on the other end of the Earth... I just have a question, where can I find the lyrics/tekst of the mantras you hum/sing in the beginnings? It is very hard to copy the sounds right without reading them...
Thank you Gemma. You may find these links helpful in learning the mantras: www.pranidhivarshney.com/mantra-translations/ (mantra translations) www.pranidhivarshney.com/music/ (both mantras are included on this CD)
hi and thanks alot for this. I want to ask if I need to keep the muscles toned when in asana. suppose in paschimottanasana, are my legs relaxed or toned?
Generally, it's helpful to engage the legs in paschimottanasana and all other postures. Take care that this is not tension-building, but a stabilizing engagement of the thighs and feet.
@@lucasmm3llo I don't have a full second video up yet but you can practice along with our half and half: th-cam.com/video/rlBYRUAUwHo/w-d-xo.html Elizabeth's not in it but I'll let her know she has a fan :)
Hi Preston, this extended portion of the closing mantra is only taught by Manju Jois. You can find a recording and translation at this page: www.pranidhivarshney.com/music/ And a call and response recording on Manju's CD: www.ashtanga.com/html/p.lasso?p=10137
Yes, keep the bandhas engaged as much as possible. This is not a tight constriction but a constant, subtle engagement. At first, simply focus on drawing the belly gently in (uddiyana bandha). From there, mula bandha will naturally engage as you wake up the pelvic floor. I've found that with consistent practice and attention, the bandhas do turn on :)
Is this a scam? Don't believe the "total viewed" numbers for this video. This video just showed up on my daily "watched" history but I have NEVER watched this or any video from Purple Valley yoga. Who has time for 2 hours of yoga? Not me!

We would love to have you at the shala if you're ever in SoCal! Happy to hear you're enjoying practicing with us virtually :)
Beautiful Practice!!!! Perfect pace! Thank you for sharing and God Bless!!!!

Hello Pranidhi Mam
are you teaching Ashtanga yoga online?
What’s the Best Way to Contact You?
Today I practiced full series
Thank you so much 🙏🙏❤️😊

Thanks mam Paranam
where are you from
Why do you count catvāri in the jump backs in the vinyasas?
Do you give online training?

I wonder if Elizabeth is doing the second series, she inspired me to continue through the 45-60min video until I managed to complete the first series
Yes, she is! Though she isn't in our second series video, she is practicing full second with appropriate modifications as needed :)
@@PranidhiV I need to see that to do with her! :)
@@lucasmm3llo I don't have a full second video up yet but you can practice along with our half and half: th-cam.com/video/rlBYRUAUwHo/w-d-xo.html
Elizabeth's not in it but I'll let her know she has a fan :)
This is great but the counting in the Suryas are way to quick. I finish my 2nd breath in down dog and it's already finished 5 breaths...
What is the prayer after you finish "Swasti Prajabyaha"? Where can I find it and learn it?
Hi Preston, this extended portion of the closing mantra is only taught by Manju Jois. You can find a recording and translation at this page: www.pranidhivarshney.com/music/
And a call and response recording on Manju's CD: www.ashtanga.com/html/p.lasso?p=10137
and what about the Bandhas, how to do the Bandhas??? do I do the mula Bandha and uddhiyana on each asana? bit confused 😕, please help :-D
Yes, keep the bandhas engaged as much as possible. This is not a tight constriction but a constant, subtle engagement. At first, simply focus on drawing the belly gently in (uddiyana bandha). From there, mula bandha will naturally engage as you wake up the pelvic floor. I've found that with consistent practice and attention, the bandhas do turn on :)
💗🙏
No one is following the proper alignment of the asanas. Many asanas have been done mistakenly. Apart from that your calm instructions are good.
Hello
Conti troppo lentamente 😮😊
Is this a scam? Don't believe the "total viewed" numbers for this video. This video just showed up on my daily "watched" history but I have NEVER watched this or any video from Purple Valley yoga. Who has time for 2 hours of yoga? Not me!
Copying others do not give you success, you are copied Pattabhi jois astanga yoga series 😏
Not into that chanting ... just saying ...
