What is Mysore Style Ashtanga Yoga?

Sugarcamp Productions takes a look inside Land Yoga's Mysore room to show you how the open room time works and how anyone can practice this type of yoga. You only 40 minutes at least 3 times a week and you can choose your start time to work with your schedule.

The actual definition of "Mysore style Ashtanga Yoga" is that Ashtanga yoga which Pattabhi Jois and his successor Sharath Rangaswamy have been teaching at Mysore and in all their international workshops (concentrating mainly in the West) for people who can afford all that time and money (in euro and dollars).
Thus you'd hardly find any indians in Mysore coz most indians like myself can't afford the time for that so called "Mysore pilgrimage" (months of learning at KPJAYI). As a result the very few teachers in india are so much in demand by rich folks that they'd charge a bomb which we middle class folks can't afford. And ofcourse KPJAYI is the least bothered bout conducting workshops for us indians in other cities in India coz we spend in Indian rupees.
So yea all of KPJAYI workshops happen mostly in America or Europe where there's already no dearth of certified and authorized teachers and Ashtanga Yoga learning centers.
What you call "Mysore style Ashtanga Yoga" is the biggest Indian irony, is what I'd say. Coz despite being an "Indian" invention, it's made so exclusive that it's a rarity or even unknown in many cases to us in India.

Nothing that starts off one way stays the same thru time - all growth and evolution....
Even Pattabhi Jois changed the practice to accomodate or better integrate with the people who were coming to seek it. Originated in the country yes but others ran with it under his teaching.
Regardless it doesn't matter if you cant find any indians who do mysore. Most Americans can't squeeze that routine into their mornings but for the ones that can they end up practicing and loving the practice to where they reorganize their mornings to practice before work. I do it everyday and it is a hustle and not easy.
